Gradient-heavy backgrounds (5+ elements)+4
why5+ gradient-background elements means decorative blobs, glows, conic rainbow swirls, or 'aurora' panels everywhere. This is the AI template equivalent of a 2008 MySpace page.fixAim for zero decorative gradients. At most ONE subtle gradient if it has structural purpose (a section background that aids hierarchy). Replace decorative gradients with: solid color blocks, a single tasteful photograph, real product UI screenshots, or negative space.rule≤1 gradient element total on the page.
Identical feature cards with icon on top+4
why3+ identical feature cards, each with a small icon on top, then a 2-3 word title, then a one-sentence description. This is the single most-copied component from Tailwind UI and shadcn. Every AI-generated landing page has one.fixReplace the grid with something that shows the actual product. Options: (a) one large annotated product screenshot with callouts, (b) a comparison table, (c) a vertical scrolling list with one row = one feature + real screenshot, (d) a single demo video. If you must keep cards, vary their sizes and use real product imagery instead of generic icons.ruleNo grid of ≥3 sibling cards each with a top-aligned icon. If you have a feature grid, ≥1 card must contain a real product screenshot, not a generic icon.
