Landing page (greenfield journey) user journey - landing redesign

Persona

The non-engineer builder - a solo founder, indie hacker, or hobbyist with a product idea and no engineering team or bandwidth. Lives in chat tools, is skeptical of AI vaporware, and needs honesty about maturity before investing time. Success for them: they open the dashboard and start a conversation.

The journey

1. Hero + conversation demo (0-5s)

  • They see/do: H1 "Your next product starts as a conversation", the Public Beta badge, and the mock Bloom interview card - a real discovery exchange ending in "PRD draft ready - awaiting your approval".
  • They're asking: "What is this, and is it real?"
  • Decision to win: the demo card, not adjectives, convinces them the conversation IS the product.

2. Journey check (5-10s)

  • They see/do: the switch strip - "Bringing an existing repository? See the adoption path."
  • They're asking: "Is this page for me?"
  • Decision to win: greenfield visitors continue; org visitors route to the adopt journey instead of bouncing.

3. The artifact trail (10-45s)

  • They see/do: six real artifacts - PRD, milestone plan, UI design studies (their pick gates the UI work), GitHub issue, reviewed PR, deployment awaiting approval.
  • They're asking: "What do I actually get, and where does it live?"
  • Decision to win: every artifact maps to a tool they recognize - no slideware.

4. Control and honesty (45-60s)

  • They see/do: "You stay the approver" (PRD, plan revisions, go-live) and "What Bloom won't do" (replace judgment, decide architecture alone, code ad-hoc).
  • They're asking: "Do I stay in charge? What's the catch?"
  • Decision to win: the stated limits read as honesty, converting the skeptic.

5. Exit (60s+)

  • They see/do: "Start with a sentence" + three CTAs, with the Google sign-in disclosed up front.

Exits and CTAs (ranked by intent)

  1. Open the dashboard - the conversion this page exists for
  2. Read the developer docs - the technical evaluator
  3. View on GitHub - the skeptic verifying the project is real

Drop-off risks (accepted)

  • The dashboard CTA lands on a Google sign-in wall with no tour - accepted; the sign-in is disclosed on the page ("The dashboard signs in with Google").
  • The Public Beta badge will turn away users wanting finished software - accepted; honesty about maturity is the brand.
  • The mock interview must be maintained as capabilities evolve - accepted, with content traceability enforced at design review.

Success signals

  • The dashboard CTA is the dominant exit for non-technical visitors; docs and GitHub absorb the technical ones.
  • Org-shaped visitors exit via the adoption path instead of bouncing.
  • No analytics exist on the page today; click telemetry remains a future, privacy-respecting enhancement.
