# Ramp Design System

## Overview

Ramp describes itself as: “Make expense management easy with Ramp's spend management platform. Combine global corporate cards, travel, expenses and accounts payable to automate finance operations and improve efficiency.” The interface is light, built on **White (#FFFFFF)** with **Near Black (#0C0A08)** text and almost no color: actions are carried by contrast, not hue.

Type is set in **Lausanne**. Headlines run large; body text is 16px. Depth comes from hairline borders and inset highlights rather than drop shadows. Corners are mostly 12px.

Measured from [ramp.com](https://ramp.com/) on October 21, 2026 at 1440×900 and 390×844 from 358 rendered elements. Values are computed styles from the live page, not the original source files.

## Colors

The palette has 11 roles.

- **White (#FFFFFF):** Page background, seen 5 times. Token `background`, CSS `--fides-overlay-primary-button-text-color`.
- **Near Black (#0C0A08):** Primary text and headings, seen 51 times. Token `on-surface`.
- **Slate (#6D6C6B):** Secondary text, seen 40 times. Token `on-surface-variant`.
- **Mist (#F4F2F0):** Raised areas one step from the page, seen 10 times. Token `surface-container-low`.
- **Charcoal 5% (#2121210D):** Translucent fill for cards and controls, seen 8 times. Token `overlay`.
- **Charcoal 5% (#1A19190D):** Stronger translucent fill, seen 4 times. Token `overlay-strong`.
- **Charcoal 10% (#2121211A):** Borders and dividers, seen 5 times. Token `outline`.
- **White 20% (#FFFFFF33):** Secondary dividers, seen 2 times. Token `outline-variant`.
- **Charcoal (#1A1919):** Primary buttons and calls to action, seen 2 times. Token `primary`.
- **White (#FFFFFF):** Text and icons on primary. Token `on-primary`.
- **Vivid Yellow (#E4F222):** Most used accent color, seen 16 times. Token `secondary`.

## Typography

**Lausanne** carries the whole interface. Fallback stack: `Lausanne, Arial, sans-serif`. Other loaded fonts: Material Icons, Material Icons Outlined.

- **headline-display:** Lausanne 64px at weight 400, line height 1 (40px on mobile). Page title (h1).
- **headline-lg:** Lausanne 48px at weight 400, line height 1.04. Section headings (h2).
- **headline-md:** Lausanne 40px at weight 400, line height 1.05. Sub-section headings.
- **headline-sm:** Lausanne 28px at weight 400, line height 1.14 (22px on mobile). Card and feature titles.
- **title-lg:** Lausanne 24px at weight 400, line height 1.17 (20px on mobile). Small titles.
- **body-md:** Lausanne 16px at weight 400, line height 1.5. Body text.
- **body-sm:** Lausanne 13px at weight 400, line height 1.46. Secondary and small text.
- **label-md:** Lausanne 14px at weight 400, line height 1.43. Buttons, navigation and labels.

## Layout

Spacing is mostly on a 4px grid (85% of measured values), with some off-grid steps. Match the measured scale rather than rounding everything.

- **Scale:** xs 4px, sm 8px, md 16px, lg 24px, xl 64px.
- **Sections:** 128px vertical padding between major sections.
- **Gaps:** 8px is the most common gap in flex and grid layouts.
- **Breakpoints:** 380px, 480px, 500px, 767px, 768px, 860px, 992px, 1024px, 1100px, 1280px, 1360px, 1440px.

## Elevation & Depth

The design avoids drop shadows. Layers are separated by tonal surface steps (#F4F2F0) and hairline rings:

- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.6) 0px 0px 2px 0px inset`

## Shapes

Most elements use 12px corners. Measured radii, most used first:

- **xl (12px):** 68 elements.
- **sm (6px):** 56 elements.
- **xs (4px):** 40 elements.
- **lg (10px):** 12 elements.
- **md (8px):** 8 elements.

## Components

Measured from the rendered page. Token values reference the tokens above.

- **button-primary (“Get started”):** #1A1919 fill, #FFFFFF text, 14px/400, 6px radius, padding 12px 16px.
- **button-primary-hover:** background #212121CC, text #FFFFFF on hover.
- **button-outline (“See a demo”):** #E4F222 fill, #0C0A08 text, 14px/400, 6px radius, padding 12px 16px.
- **button-outline-hover:** background #F5FF78, text #0C0A08 on hover.
- **button-ghost (“Products”):** transparent fill, 14px/400, 6px radius, padding 0px 12px.
- **link:** transparent fill, #0C0A08 text, padding 0px.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use #FFFFFF for the page and lift surfaces in small steps: #F4F2F0.
- Do keep text in 2 levels: #0C0A08, #6D6C6B.
- Do let contrast carry emphasis; primary actions use #1A1919 on #FFFFFF.
- Do reuse the measured spacing steps (8px, 16px, 24px).
- Do use 12px corners on most elements; larger surfaces also use 6px, 4px and 10px.
- Don't add drop shadows for depth; use hairline rings and tonal surfaces.
- Don't introduce new font families beyond Lausanne.
- Don't add saturated accent colors; the measured palette is almost entirely neutral.
- Don't make interface transitions slower than 0.3s.

## Motion

Interface transitions are quick: 0.3s, 0.24s, 0.25s, 0.15s.

- **Easing:** `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)`, `cubic-bezier(0.45, 0.05, 0.55, 0.95)`, `cubic-bezier(0.6, 0, 0.2, 0.5)`.
- **Reduced motion:** the page responds to `prefers-reduced-motion`.
