Following the helpful feedback I have put a new version online:
new: https://www.hyperplan.com/staging/
old: https://www.hyperplan.com/
Note that that I haven’t changed the design (fonts, colour, white space) much and I haven’t made it responsive yet. I will concentrate on that once I am happy with the overall structure and copy.

Andy I like the new layout.
I think you should use this as the banner at the top
“Hyper Plan combines the simplicity of sticking colored notes to the wall with the flexibility of software.”
instead of
“Flexible planning and scheduling software…”
Which defines your and all your competitors. The “colored notes on the wall” is a “aha, I get it” sort of tag line.
The .gifs are great. Well done.
I suggest you find a different font—something classy—and use a larger point size. The text on the page can stand out better.

The H1 title is important for search engine optimization and people are more likely to search for phrases like “planning software for mac”.
But I do want to make that line stand out a bit more.

They aren’t quite as crisp as I would like. But making them higher quality would probably make them too slow to load.

I need to talk to a proper web designer about that. Just concentrating on the copy and structure at present. Fonts/Colors/Spacing/Responsive comes later.

As an unbiased (WRT Hyperplan) observer taking due respect to the great work done to generate the page, I would offer the remarks below with the hope they are taken as ways to improve the impact rather than critiques about mistakes.
* We focus on pictures first and then look for the explanation for the picture afterward. In English, we read from left to right. The page scatters the placement of images and text between left and right sides. For consistency, put pictures on the left (what will be seen first) and put their explanations on the right (what will be sought next).
* We capture ideas in snapshots. The page flows continuously with no clear demarcations between ideas. Provide better demarcations between ideas.
* This struck me at the first feature (Layout cards in ...). The fewer “fluff” words and the fewer inferences, the better. Remove “e.g” and words in ’ ... ‘. Also, make the explanation text bigger (you’ve got lots of space there next to the images). Also, can you slow down the action in the moving videos? You might consider allowing about 3-5 seconds between each layout change to allow the layout image to “sink in” (3-5 s is what we typically consider as the smallest instant in time to process a concept before moving to the next one).
Otherwise, I am enticed by what I see and will try Hyperplan in the near future.
Thanks!
