Our verdict
3/5 out of 5
Passed the cut
Illustration: Ink Sketch gives Tally hand-inked mascots: a googly-eyed envelope with a coin buddy, a ringing alarm clock and two critters sharing a budget, with chunky Bricolage Grotesque and ink-outlined sticker buttons on warm paper. The dashboard has an envelope critter waving on grass. It is charming, but the mobile dashboard scrolls sideways and the inline drawings make the pages heavy. Pick it for playful brands.

- the inline drawings make the landing about 790 KB and the dashboard about 320 KB of HTML
- dashboard mobile: 664 px wide on a 390 px screen, so it scrolls sideways

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.

3D Metal Material (Meng To)
3D Metal Material gives Tally a dark studio look: Instrument Serif headlines with brass accents and a slowly tilting brushed-steel card in the hero, drawn live with WebGL. The dashboard puts the $640 on a machined steel plate and uses steel, brass and copper finishes on the bars and buttons. It feels premium and is consistent across both pages. Pick it when you want one rich 3D centerpiece on a dark product page.

Illustration: Outlined Cartoon (Meng To)
The Outlined Cartoon skill draws its own SVG people and objects, with thick black outlines and flat yellow, periwinkle, red and green fills, and builds the whole page around them: chunky Bricolage Grotesque, hard offset shadows and sticker-like cards. The dashboard keeps the cartoon, down to a little character in the summary card. Pick it if you want a friendly, playful product that looks hand-made.

Illustration: Flat (Meng To)
Illustration: Flat gives Tally a cut-paper look: white and pale lavender, navy text, and a hero of a woman dropping a coin into a "FUN" envelope, with small flat drawings on each feature. The dashboard uses the same lavender, indigo, yellow, coral and mint for the envelopes. It is friendly and clean. Pick it when you want custom spot illustrations without hiring an illustrator.

Illustration: Framed Panel (Meng To)
The Framed Panel skill draws cosy cartoon scenes inside framed cards, in navy line with lavender, peach and coral, and wraps Tally in a soft lavender-and-cream page with Bricolage Grotesque.

Illustration: Bold Pop (Meng To)
The Bold Pop skill draws pop-art scenes in navy outline with hot pink, lemon and lime fills, and builds a loud, cheerful Tally around them: Bricolage Grotesque, thick navy borders and hard offset shadows.

Illustration: Grainy Gouache (Meng To)
