Proof.

What other people say about Drafter, and what the numbers say. Every quote is someone we have heard from, in their words; every logo is a customer; every number is stated in the story it comes from.

Quote.

The customer’s mark, their words at reading size, a mono attribution, and the way to the whole story. On the reversed stock the logo goes, because the wordmarks are dark files with no light cut, and the attribution carries the quote alone. From the homepage.

Customer board.

Nine approved wordmarks, five at a time on a split-flap board, gray at 55 percent so no one brand outshouts the rest. One list, in lib/customer-logos.ts, shared by the homepage and the demo page.

Stat strip.

The homepage’s four figures, each drawn as an instrument rather than set as a big number, so the proof speaks the site’s drawing language. It stands on open paper, not in a box: four boxes inside a fifth would be the nesting the layout rules out.

Case numbers.

A number leads, in tabular figures, over a mono label, in a hairline grid. The same three ride as a sticky rail beside the story on a wide screen. Every value is stated in the body below it; nothing here is summarized from somewhere else.

Quote plate.

A case study’s close: the customer’s words on an ink plate, over the picture of the thing they built. The plate keeps its height for the photograph, not the text, so a launch has room to be a launch.

Takeaways.

A case study’s last band: what a reader takes away, numbered, one line each. Spaceium’s three.

What keeps it true.

Nothing quotes a customer we have not heard from. A placeholder quote beside a real logo is worse than no quote. Run one quote alone rather than pad a pair.
Quote word for word, from the source, and say who said it and where they work.
A quote that is not yet cleared stays off the page, even when its story is written.
A logo is a customer’s permission, not decoration. The nine on the board are approved; adding a tenth needs the same.
Every number on a case study is stated in its story, and every link from a quote resolves to a page that exists.

Best practices.

Lead a quote with the customer's mark on light stock.
Set numbers in tabular figures, value over label.
Link a quote to its whole story.
Let a quote stand alone rather than pair it with a weaker one.

Don't

Do not paraphrase a customer.
Do not put a dark wordmark on the reversed stock.
Do not show a number the page does not explain.
Do not box the stat strip.

Go to manufacturing.
