# Public

> Extracted from [https://public.com/](https://public.com/) on 2026-11-12 by Emblematic. Every value below was read from the rendered DOM (computed styles, `document.fonts`, and the fonts Chrome actually used to paint text), not estimated from pixels. When the YAML front matter and this prose disagree, the YAML wins. Copy values from this file exactly; don't transcribe them from memory. Don't copy logos, imagery, illustrations or marketing copy.

## Overview

Public uses a light canvas (#FFFFFF) with a palette led by #0027B3. Type is set in **Helvetica**, **Denton** (display), with 14px body text. Layout: 1344px container, none-detected navigation, 10 sections. Built with wordpress, jquery, intercom, google-tag-manager, cloudfront.

## Colors

Area-weighted from painted backgrounds, text and borders on the 1440px light capture. Roles are inferred from usage (largest background, most text, interactive fills). Every hex is an exact computed value; a role marked *unverified* is a best guess that has not passed review, so its canonical token (e.g. `primary`) is left out of the front matter.

| Token | Hex | OKLCH | Role | Share of paint | CSS variable |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `background` | `#FFFFFF` | 1 0 0 | bg | 49.1% | `--white` |
| `on-surface` | `#000000` | 0 0 0 | text | 24.2% | `--dark-001` |
| `surface` | `#F3F6F9` | 0.972 0.005 247.9 | surface | 17.5% | — |
| `on-surface-variant` | `#516880` | 0.508 0.047 249.9 | muted | 6.6% | `--grey-001` |
| `primary` | `#0027B3` | 0.38 0.218 263.9 | accent | 0.30% | — |
| `outline` | `#FFFFFF26` (on bg `#FFFFFF`) | 1 0 0 | border | 0.10% | — |
| `color-7` | `#A8B4BF` | 0.764 0.021 245.7 | other | 0.87% | — |
| `color-8` | `#00000040` (on bg `#BFBFBF`) | 0 0 0 | other | 0.42% | — |
| `color-9` | `#DCE2EA` | 0.911 0.013 255.5 | other | 0.33% | — |
| `color-10` | `#1B222C` | 0.25 0.022 257.3 | other | 0.21% | — |

Sparse chromatic highlights (not accents): `#31A400`, `#FF002B`, `#335FAE`, `#00379A` (`--blue-brand`).

Declared brand/accent tokens: `--blue-brand` = `#00379A`.

Contrast: text on background 21:1, muted text 5.77:1, accent 10.82:1.

Gradients in use: `linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0.22%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.25) 36.56%, rgb(0, 0, 0) 46.55%), linear-gradient(0deg, rgb(0, 0, 0) 0%, rgb(0, 0, 0`; `linear-gradient(to right, rgb(241, 244, 247) 0%, rgb(241, 244, 247) 49.9%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 100%)`.

The site does not change under `prefers-color-scheme: dark`.

## Typography

| Family | Role | Weights | Share of text | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **Helvetica** (CSS: `Inter`) | body | 400, 600 | 67.7% | system (stack `Inter, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif`, resolved on macos) |
| **Denton** | display | 300 | 25.5% | webfont |
| **Invest Pro** | other | 400 | 6.8% | webfont |

Scale (px): 12, 14, 16, 20, 24, 32, 48, 52, 80. Effective ratio ≈ 1.283 (close to a major third). Body 14px at line-height 1.42; display 80px with tracking 0em. Headings are sentence case. On a 390px viewport the body is 14px and display 52px.

## Layout

Spacing has no reliable single base unit; the most used steps are 6, 8, 9, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56px. Sections open with about 123px of space before their first line of text. Content sits in a 1344px container on a 3-column grid. Text density 0.128 (text area / page area).

Section order (desktop). Kinds below the review threshold are shown as *section*:

1. **hero** — “The investing platform for the agentic age” (878px, bg #FFFFFF)
2. **section** — “Prediction Markets API Agents Crypto IRA 1% MATCH IRAs Investment Plans Generate” (636px, bg #FFFFFF)
3. **section** — “Bring AI into every part of your investing experience” (1949px, bg #FFFFFF)
4. **section** — “Earnings call summaries” (551px, bg #FAFAFA)
5. **section** — “The new standard.” (1054px, bg #000000)
6. **section** — “Five nerdy features you’ll love.” (1936px, bg #FFFFFF)
7. **section** — “And up to $250,000” (439px, bg #FFFFFF)
8. **section** — “Have an account valued at $500,000 or more?” (527px, bg #000000)
9. **section** — “99.994% uptime*” (949px, bg #000000)
10. **footer** — “Fund your account in 5 minutes or less” (3726px, bg #000000)

## Elevation & Depth

Style: elevated. Most used shadows:

- `rgba(255, 196, 250, 0.25) 8px -8px 20px 0px, rgba(56, 205, 255, 0.25) -8px 8px 30px 0px`

## Shapes

Dominant corner radius 6px; radii in use: 4px, 6px, 8px, 16px, pill. Borders: hairline (1px).

## Components

- **button-primary**: backgroundColor `#000000`, textColor `#FFFFFF`, rounded `9999px`, padding `0px 16px`, height `42px`, fontFamily `Invest Pro`, fontSize `14px`, fontWeight `400`, border `1px solid #FFFFFF` (e.g. “Sign up”)
- **button-secondary**: textColor `#000000`, rounded `9999px`, padding `0px 16px`, height `42px`, fontFamily `Invest Pro`, fontSize `14px`, fontWeight `400`, border `1px solid #DCE2EA` (e.g. “Log in”)
- **card**: rounded `16px`, padding `0px`, backgroundColor `#FAFAFA`

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do reserve `#0027B3` for primary actions and highlights; it covers only 0.30% of the painted page.
- Do set body copy in Helvetica at 14px / 1.42.
- Do use Denton only for display sizes, not for body text.
- Don't introduce font weights beyond 300, 400, 600.
- Do keep corners at 6px for most controls, and use the larger radii only for cards and media.
- Don't copy this site's logos, illustrations, photography or copy; use the system, not the brand assets.
