For the first time in history, humans have created an intelligence greater than our own. A small number of people have worked tirelessly with these tools for the last five years. Now it's our responsibility to put this intelligence back into the hands everyday people. This is why I created Clawdie to help small and medium businesses across Australia spend less time the work that drains them, and more time on what matters.

Clawdie: AI automation for Australian small and medium businesses

This page opens with an interactive visual story. Timings begin when the visitor activates the question mark or makes a downward navigation gesture. The complete opening sequence lasts 14.27 seconds. The following transcript describes exactly what a sighted visitor sees.

  1. Activation and question-mark dissolve. to . A click, downward scroll, swipe, Space, Page Down or Arrow Down starts the experience. The large glowing white question mark expands, blurs and fades into black like a soft poof.
  2. Text enters the gravitational pull. to . The separated statement fragments stop their distant drift, flatten toward the viewer and accelerate into curved paths around the centre of the page.
  3. Black hole fades in. to . A compact, pure-black singularity and a restrained cool crescent become visible at the centre while fine cosmic particles gather around it.
  4. Accelerating orbit and tidal distortion. to . The white phrases orbit faster, tighten toward the black hole, stretch and shear under the simulated pull, and dim briefly when passing behind the event horizon.
  5. Sequential release into the founder statement. to . The phrases escape the orbit in reading order and travel along curved paths into their final paragraph positions. The first phrase begins releasing at 4.41 seconds and the last finishes at 6.69 seconds.
  6. Black hole disappears. to . The singularity, crescent, cosmic dust and temporary black overlay fade completely before the assembled words cross the centre, leaving the matte near-black background clean.
  7. Founder statement lands. . All animated fragments are stationary and form the complete DeAndre Hyde statement. Clawdie remains highlighted in brand red and the word to is bold.
  8. Attribution and call-to-action reveal. to . The DeAndre Hyde attribution fades upward into place. The pearl-white What does Clawdie do button is uncovered from left to right over 0.68 seconds.
  9. Clawdie identity and navigation arrive. to . The Clawdie logo fades from blur to sharp focus over 1.50 seconds. At the same starting moment, Blog, Projects and Bring me a problem are revealed from left to right over 0.68 seconds.
  10. Horizontal spine fuse. to . A one-pixel white line propagates from the far left edge toward the page junction like a fuse.
  11. Spine branches north and south. to . When the fuse reaches the junction, matching one-pixel white lines grow upward and downward at the same time until the page framework is complete.

Persistent interaction animations

After the sequence, the stable page presents DeAndre Hyde's statement, the Clawdie logo, navigation for Blog, Projects and Bring me a problem, and the What does Clawdie do call to action. The animation changes presentation only; it does not replace or alter the final written statement.
