The authoritative reference for Look | Think | Move, Parla, and Jo. One voice. One palette. One typographic system. Use it or explain why you didn't.
LTM works across three disciplines — products, tools, and strategic advisory — unified by one conviction: modern sports business capability belongs to every organization willing to build it.
LTM has the personality of the expert who doesn't need to impress you. Genuinely good at the job, and respects your time too much to showboat.
Three modes. One accent. Paper is the default canvas. Dark sections are contrast moments. Green is punctuation — reserved for tickers, CTAs, and full-bleed impact.
Five fonts. Each with a specific job. The system is modeled on editorial print design — different typefaces signal different levels of authority, like physical cuts from different sources.
LTM has one voice. It doesn't change by channel or audience. Confidence, clarity, and the occasional well-timed observation. Confidence dial: 4 out of 5.
Every element in the system. No border-radius on interactive elements. Heavy ink borders as structure. Paper background on components unless explicitly noted.

Three products. One voice. Each has a specific audience and a specific pain. The one-liners are not taglines — they are compressed arguments.
The only AI company in sports that publishes its prices and answers your questions the same day. Built by practitioners, not platform vendors.
Fans asking the same 40 questions at all hours. Staff time wasted on repetitive enquiries. Parla handles it — live in days, no IT department required.
Expensive engagements. Generic AI with no domain expertise. Uncited, hallucinated data. Jo uses proprietary frameworks, cites every source, never hallucinates.
| Phrase | Signals |
|---|---|
| "No IT department. No long contracts. No nonsense." | Anti-complexity. Operator audience. |
| "No hidden fees. No surprises. Ever." | Transparency. Trust. |
| "Live in days." | Speed. Low friction. |
| "Not ChatGPT. Real frameworks. Real market intelligence." | Differentiation from generic AI. |
| "The right tool for the job. Not a six-figure platform commitment." | Anti-enterprise. Value. |
The things that will make this brand look like every other agency. Charged. Tried. Found guilty.
| Never Write | Write Instead | |
|---|---|---|
| "AI-powered" as a standalone claim | → | Name what the AI specifically does |
| "Streamlined," "Robust," "Leverage" | → | "Faster," "capable," "use" |
| "We're excited to announce…" | → | "[Product] is live. Here's what it does." |
| Exclamation marks for emphasis! | → | Periods. Short sentences carry their own weight. |
| Em dashes — in body copy | → | En dashes, commas, or a new sentence |
| Emojis in any LTM context | → | The green dot is the brand's only accent |
| Uncited statistics or data | → | "According to [Source], [insight]." With a link. |
The LTM brand is built on the same principles as its products: simplicity, transparency, and earned confidence. The punk design adds one more — honesty about what it is. When in doubt, remove something rather than add it. The brand that does less, consistently, is more recognisable than the brand that does more, inconsistently.
