Judges
What the median judge saw
Clarity — Eyebrow 'INDEPENDENT TECHNOLOGY STUDIO' over 'BUILD BELOW THE SURFACE.' — no product shot, no button above fold, just Work/Systems/Ventures nav links.
Pricing — No pricing page; only action is 'Build with DarkNinja' pointing at support@darkninjasolutions.com. Zero numbers, zero self-serve.
Trust — Only proof is a Privacy link and LinkedIn; no address, logos, testimonials, or numbers. About/Insights links exist but nothing shown on-page.
Content — Fog like 'Operational signals are separated from assumptions' and 'Bounded Problem Space'; no metrics, no screenshots, no FAQ — just moody black void.
Design — Coherent black/white/electric-blue palette with mono '00 INDEPENDENT TECHNOLOGY STUDIO' labels; blade image is crisp, though scripts flag imgRightSizedPct 0.
Mobile — Only a small 'Menu' text toggle top-right; the first screen is pure headline — 'BUILD BELOW THE SURFACE.' with no CTA in sight.
Onboarding — No signup, demo, pricing, or docs anywhere; the only path in is 'Build with DarkNinja' via support@darkninjasolutions.com.
Differentiation — 'The same team that designs the system operates it' is a real stance — yet the submitted 'AI-powered' tagline never actually appears in the page copy.
Accessibility — 'Skip to main content' link present, contrast passes 100%, but alt-text coverage sits at 78.6%.
