## Score over time

The report includes a score-history chart for Hera and the comparison products Jitter, LottieLab, Rive, Kive AI Motion, and LottieFiles. The visible chart highlights Hera's series and shows the comparison series over time.

## Value props — 68/100, Fair

This category asks whether the title, subtitle, and hero communicate the product's true value.

### Hera's headline

> Your AI Motion Designer

### Working

- The headline names the role Hera replaces.
- The selection-box hero demonstrates the canvas itself.
- YC and Product Hunt badges add proof.

### Could improve

- There is no subhead, so output and speed are unstated.
- The page gives zero concrete numbers or outcomes.
- The prompt-bar demonstration is easy to miss as the demo.

## Mobile web — 72/100, Fair

This category evaluates the phone experience as a first-class experience.

![Mobile web annotations on the Hera capture](https://zlfyzdmohcskkucuunmk.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/sites/growth-score/site/hera.video-mobile.jpg?v=2026-09-22T21%3A06%3A03.333%2B00%3A00)

1. **Prompt bar CTA:** The primary prompt input is pinned at the very bottom of the viewport, far from the headline, with no full-width action button between them.
2. **“Backed by” badge row:** The desktop badge row wraps awkwardly on mobile. “Backed by” breaks over two lines, and the Product Hunt card nearly overflows the right edge.
3. **Start creating button:** The gradient CTA keeps desktop pill proportions instead of expanding toward full bleed, leaving a small tap target in the header.

## Information hierarchy — 74/100, Fair

This category evaluates whether the design helps or inhibits the page's intended message.

![Information hierarchy annotations on the Hera capture](https://zlfyzdmohcskkucuunmk.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/sites/growth-score/site/hera.video.jpg?v=2026-09-22T21%3A06%3A03.333%2B00%3A00)

1. **Prompt input CTA:** The conversion action—the prompt box—sits at the bottom edge with no label telling visitors to type there, so the fold's real CTA reads as an afterthought.
2. **Headline selection handles:** Red bounding-box handles around “Hera's AI Motion Designer” can read as a broken editor state rather than a deliberate demo cue, muddying the value proposition.
3. **Navigation link row:** Four same-weight links—Examples, Testimonials, Product Launch, and API—offer exits before visitors reach the prompt input or “Start creating”.

## CTA — 78/100, Fair

This category evaluates CTA copy, size, verb, and perceived cost.

The comparison examples show:

- Jitter: “Try Jitter for free”
- LottieLab: “Get started for free”
- LottieFiles: “Get started for free”

### Problems identified for Hera
