CTA

68Fair

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

Problems

  • high-commitment sales-call framing
  • no low-friction secondary path
  • hero button smaller than headline scale

Value props

68Fair

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

Paragon’s headline vagueThe AI Growth Engine For IndustrialsAI agents that automate order processing, customer engagement, and demand forecasting for manufacturers and distributors.

Working

  • Subhead names three concrete jobs
  • Audience named: manufacturers, distributors
  • Clean single-CTA focus

Could improve

  • "Growth Engine" is an abstraction stack
  • No numbers or proof points in fold
  • Hero visual decorates, shows nothing

Mobile web

80Strong

The phone experience as a first-class citizen.

Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture123
  1. Book a Demo button — Desktop-proportioned width floats narrow in the phone column instead of near full-bleed.
  2. Grey subheadline copy — Low-contrast grey on black strains legibility at arm's length.
  3. We're hiring pill — Faint text and border make the link barely visible against the dark hero.

Information hierarchy

82Strong

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

Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture123
  1. We're hiring badge — A recruiting exit sits directly above the headline in the primary scan path, competing with the value prop and pulling first attention off the conversion story.
  2. Duplicate Book a Demo — The nav's 'Book a Demo' duplicates the hero button at the same visual weight, splitting the single-action focus of the fold.
  3. Hero subheadline text — Low-contrast gray on near-black makes the only concrete product explanation the hardest element to read in the fold.
