Centered hero with a grainy pink-bird illustration fading into white, a floating dark nav pill, serif value headline, and dual CTAs.
Summary
An above-the-fold hero where a textured illustration of pink birds over blue water and yellow clouds fades into a white lower band with centered serif branding, a value headline, subcopy, and two rounded CTAs beneath a floating dark navigation pill.
Visual description
The top two-thirds is a grainy, hand-print-style illustration: hot pink birds flying over deep blue water with stylized yellow clouds on a light blue sky, soft-fading into white toward the bottom. A centered floating dark grey rounded nav bar holds left links (Blog, Docs, GitHub with icon), a centered Paperclip wordmark with paperclip icon, and right items (llms.txt, Star button with star icon). Below the fade, centered black serif reads "Paperclip" then a larger headline "The human control plane for AI labor" and muted sans-serif subcopy: "Hire AI employees, set goals, automate jobs and your business runs itself." Two pill buttons sit below: filled black "Get started" and outlined white "GitHub" with an external-link arrow.
Key takeaway
Letting a bold illustration occupy the upper field while typography and CTAs live on clean white creates impact without sacrificing readability. The floating nav pill keeps chrome light over art-heavy heroes.
Reuse notes
Strong for open-source or AI-labor products that want editorial personality over generic SaaS gradients. Requires a distinctive illustration asset; without it the lower white band feels empty. Dual CTA pattern suits dev audiences (try product + view source). Test nav contrast over busy illustration areas.
