Correctly rejected: the last pass was the old page in new paint. It kept the
skeleton — eight numbered sections, a split hero, a twelve-row comparison
matrix — and changed only the palette. A palette is not a design.
What is actually different now:
- The § numbering is gone. Numbered sections with a drawn rule are a document
convention, and the document voice is exactly what the product's design
system dropped.
- The hero shows the product instead of describing it: centred type, then a
wide panel built from the real console's own tokens, cropped by the section
below. The old hero put a table of facts beside the headline, so a visitor
read two columns before seeing anything.
- Six identical cards, then six more, then six more became one asymmetric
grid — a large panel, a dark tile, an accent tile, a wide module row — so
the important thing is allowed to be bigger than the rest.
- The industries are one dense two-column list instead of six cards repeating
each other's shape.
- The page has one dark hinge in the middle (the deployment) rather than a
dark section among seven light ones.
- The evidence table became rows that pair the measure with the piece of
paper you can hand somebody, which is what it is for.
- Prices are cards, with the full matrix folded away underneath. The matrix
used to be the first thing a visitor met: twelve rows of ticks before a
single price was legible.
- The FAQ heading sits still while the questions scroll past it.
- The footer is a real footer.
The header is a floating bar rather than a full-width band, and opaque in
both states — translucency plus backdrop-blur reads as a rendering fault over
the dark panels that scroll under it.

Reported plainly: the site is still in the old style. It was — it was the
last of the three surfaces the token file describes that had never been
converted. landing.blade.php carried its own complete design system inside a
<style> block: warm paper, IBM Plex Serif headlines, 3px corners, its own
scale of greys, written before the tokens existed. Somebody who clicked
"Anmelden" left one company and arrived at another.
The page now draws from resources/css/portal-tokens.css like the portal and
the console: same surfaces, same radii, same button hierarchy, same
small-caps label, one family at weight 700 instead of a serif. What still
differs is rhythm, which is what a marketing page is allowed to differ in.
Content is unchanged. New: components/layouts/site.blade.php holds the header
and footer for every public page, and legal.blade.php uses it too — the
imprint used to be a stranded card in a third style again.
Two things found on the way:
- .lbl set `color: var(--muted)`, which is not a token. An undefined var() in
`color` computes to `unset`, so every small-caps label on every surface was
whatever colour its container happened to be.
- The big figures were set in mono. Mono gives the decimal comma a full glyph
cell, so "99,95" read as three separate numbers.
coming-soon and the status page stay self-contained on purpose — both are
served when the application may not have a built stylesheet at all.
