@dannyfiorentini ha yeah it looks pretty familiar...
@_anthonyfrancis what inspiration did you take from Baremetrics and would you say this is a Baremetrics for Eventbrite?
@dannyfiorentini Hey Danny, you don't miss a thing! :) We took a lot of inspiration from Baremetrics which we also consider a GREAT company. Let's hope @shpigford he's not sensitive about it ;)
@dannyfiorentini I don't consider this only inspiration TBH...it's basically a visual copy...some text is identical on the site, and a lot of visuals in emails and the site are almost identical. No?
Guess which ones is which:
- vs
- vs
- vs
The product looks pretty interesting other than that. :)
Can I just go ahead and say what everyone is thinking here? Design-wise, this is plagiarism. It's not "inspiration". As a designer (and one of the original designers of Baremetrics), I know the difference.
Inspiration means seeing what works well and what doesn't, making significant changes, then creating your own brand that reflects your own company's values.
What you've done is look directly at a company in a similar space and literally lifted exact implementations of visual details down to the pixel, color, copy, organization, layout, value props, and more. That's textbook plagiarism.
I'm sorry if that's not what you want to hear. But that's what it is.
Hey Hunters!

I'm looking forward to all your questions!

Sometimes the problem of seeking inspiration from existing solutions is that it can create "me-to" UX design as a result which is why the comparison to baremetrics will continue to surface.
PS. Not discounting the product you have created, well done :-)

In case you want to discuss this design plagiarism, there's a thread on Designer News. I'm surprised you couldn't come up with something more original.
