## System Prompt (paste into AI agent)

```
Intercom's homepage is a masterclass in modern SaaS design, blending high-end editorial aesthetics with clean, functional UI. The core identity is professional and AI-focused, using a restrained color palette anchored by white (#ffffff), warm beige (#d3cec6), and near-black (#111111) text. Typography is predominantly clean geometric and humanist sans-serif, with a striking 54px display size for hero headlines using tight letter spacing. Key interactions feature smooth 0.4s transitions. Critical design rules: prioritize generous whitespace, avoid overly decorative elements, and maintain a monochrome base with subtle warm neutrals to let product imagery and the deep blue (#0007cb) accent stand out.
