Sazabi

Sazabi is an AI-native observability platform: you ask production what broke and it answers, instead of handing you dashboards. JOYCO gave that idea a public face at the level of what the team is building, a brand and a site that make a chat-shaped product legible to engineers in seconds and give Sazabi a system to keep publishing with.

Sazabi turns production questions into answers. We built a futuristic, credible identity that makes AI-native observability legible to skeptical engineers.

The design

The visual system is a small kit that works hard. Red on black as the base, with almost nothing else chromatic. A condensed uppercase display face that reads like a warning label, over a plain sans for body text. Registration marks and crosshairs borrowed from technical drawings, framing images, numbering sections and pinning corners across the site. Japanese numerals and kanji beside the six company values on the About page, a nod to the name that never turns into a costume. The same parts dress the investors list, the footer, a poster and a set of billboard mockups, so a screenshot of any page is recognisably Sazabi before you read a word.

The build

The city and console sequences use video; real-time 3D is reserved for three heroes: the home page cockpit, About mecha and Security honeycomb shield. Built with React Three Fiber and WebGPU or WebGL, they sit inside a Next.js site where ScrollTrigger, Lenis and Tempus keep footage, interaction and scroll moving together.

A shared type scale, grid, crosshair frame, label and card system keeps punchy 3D heroes, long editorial pages, decks and stickers unmistakably Sazabi. One system, from hero to blog post

The site makes a new product feel real in seconds: visitors understand what Sazabi does, why the mecha matters and how deeply the team values craft. A site people ask about

It was a labor of love. We spent over 100 hours working w/ Joyco team on this site.
