Color palette
TL;DR
Stellate utilizes a sophisticated monochrome-adjacent palette dominated by Slate Blue (#3b4c6a) and Sky Blue (#608bd8) against a clean white foundation. The system is architected around **ttCommons**, a geometric sans-serif that scales from 52px display heads to 14px utility labels with consistent 550 weight "demibold" emphasis. Functional color is used sparingly but with high intent: Coral (#ff7752) and Rose (#ff4d6d) highlight specific product pillars like Security and Metrics. Components favor soft geometric radii (6px to 12px) and subtle elevation, creating a developer-centric interface that feels both robust and accessible.
Target audience

Voice principles
- —Action-Oriented: Uses strong imperative verbs like Secure, Boost, Protect, and Leverage to lead every value proposition.
- —Quantifiable: Relies on specific metrics (99% reduction, 40ms response times) to prove technical efficacy.
- —Direct: Uses short, declarative sentences that prioritize clarity over cleverness or marketing fluff.
- —Empathetic to Engineers: Acknowledges technical pain points (scaling is tough, malicious queries, traffic spikes) with a "built by engineers for engineers" perspective.
