YC Landing Page Structure
Teardown of the shared section order across five YC-backed company landing pages
An X long-form article that compares the marketing sites of Resend, Chatbase, Artisan, Deel and Vanta and finds a near-identical page skeleton despite very different products. It names each pattern explicitly: a sub-10-word hero headline over a real product screenshot, customer logos or a usage metric inside the first 500 pixels, and one primary CTA repeated in the hero, mid-page and footer with no competing action. Useful as a section-order spec when you are laying out a SaaS homepage from nothing.
Reach for this when a user says 'build me a landing page' and gives no structure — it supplies a defensible default section order you can generate against immediately. Translate its patterns into blocks from a real block collection rather than hand-rolling: hero with screenshot, logo strip, feature sections, repeated single CTA. Watch the failure mode it warns about — do not emit a hero with two equally weighted buttons, and do not substitute an abstract illustration for the actual product UI.
Why it is here. It converts five real, currently shipping YC landing pages into a reusable section order, which is exactly the missing spec when an agent is asked to generate a marketing site.
- five real YC pages compared
- hero screenshot rule
- social proof above 500px
- one repeated CTA
