Plaid has overhauled its brand with a new website featuring a refreshed design system that aims to convey the company's mission of empowering innovators by delivering access to the financial system. The new design system, which was developed after reassessing the existing one, features crisp black and white backgrounds, clean typography, and streamlined geometric shapes. It also incorporates organic brushstrokes and pops of bright colors to convey passion and energy in building faster, better products. The website's design is meant to strike a balance between feeling rigorously structured and approachable, with illustrations that visualize the benefits of having a more open financial ecosystem. This marks a significant milestone for Plaid, which has been growing rapidly since its launch, and demonstrates the company's commitment to maintaining developer experience as a top priority even as it expands.
