The best product websites do more than pitch. They explain, guide, and reflect the product itself, and often serve as a company’s first impression. On this episode of Design Review, YC’s Aaron Epstein is joined by Karri Saarinen, co-founder & CEO of Linear, to break down how today’s best software companies design their sites. They review examples from Linear, Sprites AI, GigaML, UnReal Milk (Brown Foods), Confident AI (YC W25), and Dropback, exploring how structure, motion, and clarity shape not just the user experience, but the brand as well. https://lnkd.in/gM9JFbva
