DeepIntent Brand Design System Deep Dive
1. Brand Overview
DeepIntent’s design language is clean, deliberate, and unapologetically digital-health focused. From the moment you land on their site, you feel a mix of clinical precision and tech-forward energy. This is not a brand chasing lifestyle aesthetics — it’s a brand that wants to look trustworthy, competent, and ahead of the curve in healthcare advertising technology.
The vibe: deep blues and cobalts for authority, peppermint greens for vitality and freshness, and citrus yellows/greens for optimism. The typography is modern and geometric (Manrope), giving the interface a sense of structure. There’s no decorative fluff — every pixel has a job.
The design philosophy leans into clarity and hierarchy. They use a consistent 8px-based spacing system (with occasional 4px increments for micro-adjustments), generous border radii for buttons and cards, and strong color separation to distinguish interactive elements from content. Buttons are pills (100px+ radii) or full circles (999px) for emphasis. Large headings balance weight and openness with tight letter-spacing for impact.
You can tell they’ve built this to scale — every color is tokenized, typography is systematic, spacing is predictable. This is the kind of system that works in a SaaS dashboard, a marketing site, and a sales deck without visual drift.
The brand feels like it’s for:
- Healthcare marketers who need complex tools that just work
- Data-driven teams who want to feel confident in the tech
- Enterprise buyers who expect polish and compliance-ready presentation
What I like: they commit to their palette. No random blues. No rogue grays. Even hover states use tokenized “peppermint-light” and not arbitrary tints. This discipline is rare.
What surprised me: the amount of inset white shadows on cards. Most modern SaaS brands go for flat or drop shadows. Here, they use subtle inset effects for a frosted, glassy feel — almost like white light reflecting off medical-grade surfaces. It’s a small thing, but it reinforces their “clean and clinical” personality.
2. Color System
2.1 Primary Colors
The primary brand blue is #0b53ff (rgb(11, 83, 255)). It’s bright enough to stand out on dark surfaces, but deep enough to feel professional. It’s used for primary CTAs, icon accents, and active states. The choice sits between tech blue and corporate cobalt — less safe than #0044cc, more vibrant than #0070f3. Against healthcare competitors, it feels more energetic than Cerner’s navy and more grounded than Zocdoc’s turquoise.
Psychologically: blue = trust, stability, expertise. The high saturation says “modern”, the hue says “serious business”.

2.3 Color Relationships
- Strong contrast between #0b53ff and #ffffff (WCAG AAA compliant at large sizes).
- Peppermint shades maintain a lightness that works on dark blue backgrounds without losing saturation.
- The dark blues (#0c2741, #040f1a, #030b13) are almost black — good for depth without the harshness of pure black.
- Citrus accents are used sparingly to avoid clashing with peppermint.
2.4 Usage Guide
- Use Primary Blue for interactive elements only. Never as a background fill.
- Peppermint variants are for hover/focus. Keep them consistent — don’t introduce “random” greens.
- Dark blue backgrounds should always have white or peppermint text.
- Citrus is for highlights, not for CTAs — it’s too light to serve as a strong action color.
- Avoid placing peppermint on citrus — low contrast.
3. Typography
3.1 Font Families
- Primary: Manrope (no fallbacks listed, but likely sans-serif)
- Source: not loaded via Google or Adobe in the extracted data — likely self-hosted.
Manrope is geometric, humanist, and clean. The choice keeps the interface approachable but still technical. Works well in healthcare tech because it’s legible at small sizes and crisp at large display sizes.
3.2 Type Scale
| Element | Font | Size | Weight | Line Height | Spacing | Transform |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| H1 | Manrope | 56px | 500 | 1.20 | -0.72px | none |
| H1 alt | Manrope | 48px | 500 | 1.20 | -0.52px | none |
| H1 small | Manrope | 24px | 500 | 1.40 | -0.28px | none |
| H1 small bold | Manrope | 24px | 600 | 1.20 | none | none |
| H1 xsmall | Manrope | 20px | 500 | 1.40 | -0.22px | none |
| H1 tiny | Manrope | 18px | 400 | 1.50 | none | none |
| Link | Manrope | 16px | 400 | 1.50 | none | none |
| Button | Manrope | 16px | 500 | 1.50 | none | none |
| H1 micro | Manrope | 16px | 400 | 1.50 | none | none |
| Link bold | Manrope | 16px | 500 | 1.50 | none | none |
| H1 micro bold | Manrope | 16px | 500 | 1.50 | none | none |
| H1 uppercase | Manrope | 16px | 600 | 1.30 | 0.8px | uppercase |
| H1 micro heavy | Manrope | 16px | 600 | 1.50 | none | none |
| Caption uppercase | Manrope | 14px | 600 | 1.30 | 0.7px | uppercase |
| Caption | Manrope | 14px | 400 | 1.50 | none | none |
| Link small bold | Manrope | 14px | 500 | 1.50 | none | none |
| Link small | Manrope | 14px | 400 | 1.50 | none | none |
3.3 Hierarchy
The system is tight. H1 at 56px feels commanding, with a -0.72px letter-spacing to pull the letters closer for density. The jump from 56 → 48 → 24 is dramatic — they’re not afraid of big typography. The 16px size is the workhorse for buttons, links, and small headings, keeping UI consistent. Uppercase small caps (16px/14px) are used for meta labels, often with increased letter-spacing.
Readability: Manrope’s open counters and uniform stroke widths make it legible even at 14px, which is why they can get away with uppercase captions without killing legibility.
4. Spacing & Layout
4.1 Spacing Scale
Base: 8px grid, with some 4px and 2px micro-steps.
| px | rem | Count | Usage |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2px | 0.13rem | 6 | Hairline spacing |
| 4px | 0.25rem | 188 | Icon padding, tight gaps |
| 6px | 0.38rem | 12 | Small text padding |
| 8px | 0.50rem | 30 | Base unit |
| 12px | 0.75rem | 30 | Small gaps |
| 14px | 0.88rem | 12 | Rare, fine-tune |
| 16px | 1.00rem | 53 | Button padding, card gaps |
| 24px | 1.50rem | 22 | Section padding |
| 32px | 2.00rem | 57 | Large gaps |
| 40px | 2.50rem | 5 | Section spacing |
| 64px | 4.00rem | 2 | Hero padding |
| 80px | 5.00rem | 14 | Hero padding |
| 112px | 7.00rem | 15 | Hero/CTA blocks |
| 160px | 10.00rem | 1 | Massive hero |
| 576px | 36.00rem | 2 | Large container widths |
4.2 Layout
Breakpoints:
- Mobile: <479px
- Tablet: <767px
- Small desktop: <991px
Likely a 12-column responsive grid. The presence of 576px as a spacing value suggests fixed-width sections or media containers.
5. Visual Elements
Border Radius:
- 8px, 12px, 14px, 16px, 20px, 24px, pill (100px), full-circle (999px/1000px)
- Usage: 14px for divs, 16px for cards/images, 100px for pill buttons.
Shadows:
- Heavy use of inset white shadows: e.g.,
rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6) 0px -2px 4px insetfor frosted effect. - Occasional drop shadows for floating buttons:
rgba(0,0,0,0.25) 0px 4px 12px.
Borders:
- Mostly 1px solid, rgba white at various opacities.
- Buttons: rgba white 0.15 for secondary, peppermint for accented.
