It looks powerful but the landing page is overwhelming and hard to read.

I can't understand what The Daily Project does from the top texts. The screenshot says it's sort of Trello alternative (btw I would recommend picking more trendy pastel colors, now the design looks a bit dated).

The introductions texts are too vague and promotional [1]: "It's more flexible and has the missing features, but keeps the simplicity that we all love." – how does it solve my problems? [2]

Then I finally scrolled to the feature grid (most of the visitors will not bother) and it's still not clear how the app works and helps me ("Focus on what's important", "Built for simplicity").

The video tour comes too late, a visitor has already left.
