CTA

68Fair

Copy, size, verb, cost-feel — does the primary CTA earn the click?

Arden
Trullion
DataSnipper

Problems

  • high-commitment sales-call framing
  • no low-cost alternative CTA
  • no value promised for the click

Value props

68Fair

Title, subtitle, hero — do they sell the product's true value?

Arden’s headline sellsAudit work, on autopilot.Today's leading internal audit teams trust Arden to deliver better audits, faster.

Working

  • Punchy, memorable headline
  • Names the audience: internal audit teams
  • Outcome framing: better audits, faster

Could improve

  • No numbers or concrete workflows named
  • Hero image decorates, shows no product
  • "Better, faster" is generic claim

Information hierarchy

78Fair

Does the design help or inhibit what the page is trying to say?

Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture123
  1. Announcement banner link — The '$3.7M raise' banner sits above the logo and offers the fold's first clickable exit before the value prop is read.
  2. Hero subheadline — Small gray-on-dark text with an awkward line break ('trust Arden / to deliver') weakens the proof line under the headline.
  3. Nav 'Platform' link — 'Platform' and 'Security' links plus a duplicate 'Book a demo' add three exit/competing paths in the header.

Mobile web

82Strong

The phone experience as a first-class citizen.

Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture12
  1. Book a demo button — Desktop-proportioned button floats at partial width instead of going near full-bleed for the thumb.
  2. Subheadline awkward wrap — "Arden" breaks alone onto its own line, a desktop line-break carried into the phone column.
