TL;DR
Mercury utilizes a "monochrome-plus" strategy where a single high-voltage periwinkle (`#5266eb`) punctuates a sophisticated palette of deep obsidian (`#1e1e2a`) and cool off-white (`#ededf3`). The system relies on the **Arcadia** and **ArcadiaDisplay** type families, characterized by generous tracking in display sizes and a custom weight of 480 for headings. Layouts are airy and structured, using large corner radii (up to 40px) on feature cards to soften the technical precision of the banking interface. Component density is comfortable, favoring large touch targets and clear semantic separation between interactive elements and content surfaces.

Voice principles
- —Action-Oriented: Use active verbs that emphasize speed and momentum (e.g., "tackle," "move," "run").
- —Confident: State value propositions plainly without fluff or excessive adjectives.
- —Empathetic to Founders: Acknowledge the "headache" and "runaround" of traditional finance while offering a "pro" solution.
- —Transparent: Clearly define the nature of the business (fintech, not a bank) and the specifics of pricing and yields.
