Value props

62Fair

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

TwentyTwo’s headline vagueThe AI Infrastructure for BiosecurityEvery layer of defense for the bioeconomy—starting with AI-powered screening.

Working

  • Clear category and audience named
  • YC badge adds credibility
  • Subhead names one real capability

Could improve

  • No numbers or concrete outcomes
  • "Infrastructure" is an abstraction stack
  • Hero art decorates, doesn't demonstrate

Mobile web

62Fair

The phone experience as a first-class citizen.

Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture1234
  1. Partner with us CTA — Sits at the bottom edge of the first viewport with 'Learn more' clipped below — visitors must scroll to act.
  2. Pill-shaped CTA buttons — Desktop-proportioned pills instead of full-width, thumb-friendly buttons on a phone column.
  3. Announcement ticker banner — Text is clipped mid-sentence on both sides ('mission —', 'is joinin') and the scrolling bar eats top-of-fold space.
  4. Animated letters over CTAs — Floating DNA letters drift across both buttons, adding visual noise around the tap targets.

Problems

  • 'Partner' implies a sales call
  • no value payoff named in label
  • click feels committal, not receiving

Information hierarchy

78Fair

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

Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture12
  1. LatchBio ticker banner — Repeating acquisition ticker with underlined LatchBio links is the first thing read and pulls visitors off-site before the headline.
  2. Learn more button — Same size and shape as the primary CTA, splitting the click at the decision moment.
