Our verdict
4/5 out of 5
Passed the cut
Editorial Minimal gives Tally a printed broadsheet: light Fraunces headlines with one italic vermilion word, IBM Plex Mono section numbers, hairline rules and an "In this issue" index beside the hero. The dashboard keeps the voice in Newsreader, opening with "You have $640 left to give a job" next to a ruled column of figures, and lists envelopes as a numbered table with one red over-budget bar. The background is cream like the default, but the green, the phone mockup and the cards are all gone, and both pages read well on a phone. Pick it for a calm, print-inspired product that lets type do the work.

Same brief, other skills
Liquid Glass Design (ECC)
Liquid Glass Design builds Tally out of frosted glass panels floating over soft mint, peach and periwinkle light, set in Bricolage Grotesque and DM Sans. The dashboard keeps the glass in Manrope and stays readable. Pick it if you want a friendly, Apple-flavored product that looks nothing like the cream-and-serif default.

Popular Web Designs (Hermes Agent)
Popular Web Designs gives Tally the Wise treatment: very heavy black Inter headlines, a lime highlight box around 'job.', pill buttons, big rounded cards and a black pricing band with a lime Plus plan. The dashboard follows through with a black 'left to budget' card in huge lime numerals, lime envelope bars and a lime October bar. It is far from the default and holds together on both pages and on a phone, though the tight headline leading lets lines collide and a sync chip covers the Groceries label in the hero. Pick it when you want a bright, confident consumer fintech look and are happy to start from a known brand's style.

Impeccable
Impeccable drops the cream-and-serif default for a loud navy, orange and primary-color landing page set in heavy Archivo, then builds a calmer pine-and-lime dashboard. Pick it if you want a product page with real energy that still holds up on a dense screen.

Hallmark
Hallmark turns Tally into a cheerful yellow-and-pastel brand in Plus Jakarta Sans with big ghost numerals, and the dashboard matches it. The most consistent result in the set, but it took about 12 minutes per brief.

Illustration: Halftone Line (Meng To)
The Halftone Line skill draws black line art with halftone dot shading and keeps Tally strictly two-color: black ink on warm paper, Instrument Serif headlines, mono captions and heavy rules. The dashboard follows with Newsreader and IBM Plex. It reads like a printed zine. Pick it for editorial or craft brands that like ink on paper.

Light Mode Paper Technical (Meng To)
Light Mode Paper Technical frames a warm paper Tally inside a dark border, with Inter Tight, many JetBrains Mono labels, bracketed panels and one red-orange accent. The dashboard is neat and technical, like a well-made instrument panel in daylight. Pick it if you want a technical product that still feels warm.

Frontend Design (OpenCode Power Pack)
OpenCode Power Pack's Frontend Design gives Tally a cash-envelope ledger: ruled cream paper, a headline mixing light, black and red italic Fraunces, stacked kraft envelopes with a receipt, IBM Plex Mono figures and buttons with red offset shadows. The dashboard follows with a tall Instrument Serif 'October 2026', DM Mono numbers on ruled paper and a dark bottle-green sidebar. It is committed and consistent, but the cream, serif and forest green palette stays close to the default family. Pick it for a warm finance brand that wants more character than the default.

Japanese Minimal (Design Taste by Mustafa)
Japanese Minimal gives Tally a wabi-sabi ledger: Shippori Mincho headlines on rice paper, Zen Kaku Gothic New body text, a red hanko seal by the wordmark and a vertical line of text at the edge of the hero. Features and pricing are thin-ruled rows instead of cards, and the dashboard uses Roman-numeral navigation, three large figures with seal red only on the $640, and a quiet gray bar chart. It is the most restrained look in this batch and holds together on both pages and on a phone, though the small gray text is faint and the landing feels sparse. Pick it for studios, tea or wellness brands, or any product that wants stillness.
