feat(landing): major splash-page overhaul (self-serve + Harbinger bridge)#202
Merged
Conversation
…Harbinger bridge Rebuild the marketing splash as a focused self-serve product page for the SMB/controller who owns the monthly close, with a clear bridge to the done-for-you service (Harbinger FinLab) on the same open platform. Information architecture (new content.tsx composition): Hero -> ProofBand -> Contrast -> HowItWorks -> Spotlights -> Platform -> OpenSourceStrip -> Harbinger bridge -> FAQ -> FinalCTA. Highlights: - Hero rebuilt around 'Close your books with AI'; GitHub demoted from a co-primary CTA to a tertiary icon link across hero, nav, and final CTA. - New Harbinger bridge (#harbinger) — the only place BYOC / custom frameworks / managed-ops / consulting appear — plus nav + footer links, all via a single HARBINGER_URL constant. - New slim open-source trust strip replaces the developer-heavy self-host section (left dormant); routes self-host/BYOC intent to Harbinger. - Consolidated the overlapping ReportCreator/OutputFormats/AIReporting sections into four grounded feature spotlights (Inbox, Close, Live Statements & XBRL, Console/MCP); dropped 'Coming Soon' filler. - New FAQ answering QuickBooks/data/XBRL/AI objections; getting-started answer reflects RoboSystems-side provisioning (no pricing on this page). - Accuracy fixes: Plaid relabeled 'coming soon' (was advertised as a live integration in 3 places); softened real-time-sync implication. - ProductShot component frames on-brand previews now and swaps in real screenshots at /public/screenshots/* when captured. Retains RoboLedger's design system (font-heading, primary/secondary/accent violet-purple-fuchsia tokens, dark cards). Superseded sections left dormant (unimported). Typecheck, lint, build, and 128 tests green.
- ProductShot: remove the fake traffic-light (close/minimize/maximize) buttons; keep a clean breadcrumb bar for the caption. - Hero: replace the inbox preview with the guided period-close panel (fiscal-calendar summary, drafted schedules, rule-engine pass, gated Close button) — the close is the flagship surface and feeds the inbox.
Add a ROBOSYSTEMS_URL constant (NEXT_PUBLIC_ROBOSYSTEMS_APP_URL, default https://robosystems.ai) and wrap the hero trust-row item in it, matching the cross-app link pattern used elsewhere and the HARBINGER_URL constant.
…-the-loop) Replace the static Closing Book panel in the hero with an emulation of the real workflow: Claude driving the RoboLedger tools via @robosystems/mcp while a person approves each step — list_inbox_events -> approve -> draft_closing_entries -> close_period. The Closing Book panel remains represented lower on the page in the Guided Close spotlight.
…y chip - New CoworkDemo client component simulates the human-in-the-loop close as a live chat: sequential reveal + progressive typing + per-tool 'running' state + auto-scroll, modeled on robosystems-app's ConsoleDemo. Starts on view via IntersectionObserver; honors prefers-reduced-motion. - Hero uses CoworkDemo in place of the static transcript; removes the now unused inline helper components. - Remove the 'XBRL-ready' trust chip from the hero row — it's already in the hero description sentence.
…nment review) Verified against the robosystems backend: - CoworkDemo advertised invented MCP tools (roboledger.list_inbox_events, draft_closing_entries, close_period). Real tools are hyphenated with no namespace prefix: list-event-blocks, create-event-block, close-period. - structured-data.ts published an Offer with price '0', telling search engines the app is free — it isn't (paid RoboSystems tiers; the page is intentionally price-silent). Removed the Offer block. - Soften the Console spotlight: 'drive the whole month-end close' -> 'help drive your month-end close' (close is a co-pilot flow).
- 'filing-ready' -> 'reports' framing (SEC needs iXBRL, which is deferred;
backend emits validated XBRL 2.1 + JSON-LD). ProofBand + Spotlights.
- 'Millisecond queries' -> 'fast, interactive queries' (unbenchmarked).
- Timeliness: 'minutes to hours' / 'closing books in minutes' ->
'hours, not days', consistent with the rest of the page.
- Cash Flow & Equity: scope the live/no-close promise (flow-tag mapping is
MCP-side, not addressable from the frontend on a raw QB sync).
- Autopilot: reframe as opt-in ('enable autopilot for trusted sources') —
it's off by default but a few clicks to turn on.
Kept '10x faster close' per product owner.
…ctions - §4: new FAQ 'I keep books for several companies — can I manage them all here?' surfacing multi-graph-per-org (verified: Organization.graphs one-to-many). Framed on the isolated-books-per-company capability only; makes no team/collaboration claim either way. - §2.9: 'you review and approve' -> 'review and adjust' (MappingOperator auto-writes mappings above its confidence threshold; not a hard gate). - §2.10: delete the 6 superseded, unimported landing sections (FeaturesSection, WorkflowSection, ReportCreator, OutputFormats, AIReportingSection, OpenSourceSection) — they carried the removed overclaims (Plaid-live, 'autonomous', 'Coming Soon'). Content is re-told honestly in the new sections; 0 references confirmed.

Summary
Ground-up overhaul of the RoboLedger marketing splash page. Rebuilds it as a focused self-serve product page for the SMB / controller who owns the monthly close, adds a clear bridge to the done-for-you service (Harbinger FinLab) on the same open platform, and aligns every capability claim with what the RoboSystems backend actually ships.
Information architecture
content.tsxnow composes, top to bottom:Hero → ProofBand → Contrast → HowItWorks → Spotlights → Platform → OpenSourceStrip → Harbinger bridge → FAQ → FinalCTAThis consolidates the previous page's overlapping sections (two report sections + a workflow + an "AI in every step" that retold the same story) into a tighter, non-repeating narrative.
Changes
New sections & components
HeroSectionrebuilt around "Close your books with AI," with an animated Claude cowork demo (CoworkDemo) that simulates the human-in-the-loop close over MCP — sequential reveal + progressive typing + per-tool "running" state + auto-scroll (modeled on robosystems-app'sConsoleDemo; starts on view via IntersectionObserver; honorsprefers-reduced-motion).ProofBand— outcome stat strip.ContrastSection— traditional-vs-AI-native compare (carried from the old FeaturesSection, tightened).HowItWorks— 6-beat end-to-end loop (renamed from WorkflowSection).Spotlights— four grounded feature deep-dives (Inbox, Guided Close, Live statements & reports, Console/MCP), replacing the overlapping ReportCreator/OutputFormats/AIReporting sections.HarbingerSection— the done-for-you bridge (#harbinger); the only place BYOC / custom frameworks / managed-ops / consulting appear.OpenSourceStrip— slim trust strip replacing the developer-heavy self-host section.FaqSection— objection-handling accordion, including a multi-company (accountant ICP) question and a getting-started answer that reflects RoboSystems-side provisioning.ProductShot— reusable frame that renders on-brand previews now and swaps in real screenshots at/public/screenshots/*.constants.ts— singleHARBINGER_URL/ROBOSYSTEMS_URL/GITHUB_URL.Header/Footerupdated for the new nav anchors + Harbinger link; GitHub demoted from a co-primary CTA to a tertiary icon across hero, nav, and final CTA.metadata.tsSEO aligned to the new framing.Accuracy / backend-alignment (verified against the robosystems backend where checkable)
