Overview

A minimal, dark-first block theme for AI startups and AI products: prompt-box and chat heroes, benchmarks, model comparison, API quickstart and usage pricing.

Cognita is built for AI assistants, copilots, model and API companies and research-led startups. It starts dark: near-black surfaces, slowly turning luminous orbs, a fine grain, thin hairlines and mono labels, with a light "Lab" scheme one click away.

What's inside, with no plugins needed:

  • Heroes: an "Ask anything" prompt box that types itself, a chat transcript with cited answers, a benchmark hero with counting numbers, a looping orb video hero, a research-paper hero and a hero that shows your latest model release.
  • AI sections: chat transcript, model comparison table, API quickstart (cURL, Python, JavaScript in expandable terminal panels), usage pricing per million tokens, model release notes, security and compliance (SOC 2, GDPR), community links.
  • Product content from the Symelo landing foundation: capabilities (features) with their own pages, an integrations directory with category chips and instant search, a changelog, pricing plans with a monthly/yearly switch and a comparison table, testimonials, FAQ with structured data, a waitlist with a live count and a countdown.
  • Forms (Symelo Theme Kit): API access request, research digest and release-notes signups, contact and waitlist forms; messages are stored under Messages in wp-admin and can be emailed to you.
  • Galleries (masonry and carousel) with a lightbox, video embeds that load only when clicked, a featured video for posts.
  • Templates: blog home, single post with reading progress, page, wide page, research paper (numbered sections with a table of contents), archive, search, 404, landing and one-page templates, and designed templates for capabilities, integrations and model releases.
  • Style variations: Lab (light), Infrared, Aurora and Mono; each dark variation has a matching light scheme.
  • Motion that respects reduced-motion settings, WCAG AA contrast in every scheme, bundled fonts and no requests to other sites.

Questions

Where do form messages go?

Every submission is stored under Messages in wp-admin. Forms that send email go to the address set in the Messages settings (or the site admin email); change the recipient per form in the form block's settings.

Where do prices, models and release notes come from?

Capabilities, integrations, releases, pricing plans, testimonials and FAQs are their own content types (menu items in wp-admin). Their extra fields need the free Secure Custom Fields plugin; the theme offers to install it. Product-wide links (sign-up, sign-in, demo, status) live under Appearance → Product details.

How do I add a featured video to a post?

Open the post's settings sidebar, find "Featured video" and paste a YouTube or Vimeo link or choose a video file. Single posts show it instead of the featured image.

Can I turn off the animations?

Visitors who ask their system for reduced motion get no animations. To remove one from a block, open the block's Motion panel or remove its sk- class under Advanced.

Is there a light mode?

Yes. The switch in the header toggles between the dark default and the light "Lab" scheme and remembers the choice. The Lab style variation makes the whole site light.
