Close by. Not rushed.
Every neighbourhood used to have a shop that knew you. Zippit is that shop, rebuilt for how Bengaluru lives now. Our Zipstores sit about a kilometre from your door, which is why your order arrives in minutes—not because anyone is racing.
The Logo System
The zipper pull gives Zippit its physical metaphor. The bold Z symbol ends in a rounded zipper pull tab with six zipper teeth notches along the diagonal.
2.2s Unzip Sequence
Pull tab slides down diagonal (0–400ms) → Z splits & teeth scatter (400–900ms) → letters rise with spring (900–1400ms) → bounce settle.
Primary Variants
Clear Space (X = ~0.9u)
Clear space equals the height of the pull tab on all four sides. No text or graphic elements may enter this exclusion zone.
Minimum Reproduction Sizes
Ensures sharpness, legibility, and barcode/screen integrity.
Logo Misuse (Don'ts)
Strict rules protecting the dignity, clarity, and legal recognition of the brand.
Don't capitalise the wordmark (never ZIPPIT or Zippit in the logo lockup).
Don't recolour the Z in Lime on Cream (fails WCAG AA contrast).
Don't add a clock, stopwatch, or "10" to the logo or positioning.
Don't rotate the whole symbol. Only the pull tab is angled at 12°.
Don't stretch it, add heavy drop shadows, or outline it.
Don't place Chili symbol directly on busy photos without a Cream or Ink backing plate.

Voice Principles
Zippit speaks with three core attributes: cheeky, candid, and neighbourly. We never print delivery promises that pressure riders, and we state every number plainly.
Quick, not breathless
Short sentences. Verbs first. We sound fast without sounding panicked.
Say the number
We say the actual price, date, or distance. Never 'small fee', 'fresh stock', or 'nearby'.
Cheeky with things, kind with people
We joke about midnight noodles. We never joke about a missing item, a late order, or a rider.
Local, not caricature
Light Indian English is welcome ('Bhai, 7 min', 'pukka fresh', 'chai-time'). No forced Hinglish in every line.
The Copy Bank
All 55 canonical copy strings from the brand system. The UI imports directly from copy.ts to maintain a single source of truth across all surfaces.
Onboarding
Welcome, location resolution, demo OTP authentication, and neighbourhood serviceability.
Home & Browsing
ETA pill, single-fee guarantee, shelf titles, and conversational search.
Cart & Checkout
Zipline free delivery threshold, tip selector, swipe-to-pay, and bill breakdown.
Live Tracking
Picking, 100% honest delays without faked speeds, OTP handover, and arrival.
After Delivery & Care
Saved-you time card, freshness receipts, instant UPI refunds, and human callback.
Empty, Error & Offline
Human, empathetic, and clear recovery states with zero blame.
In-App Banners & Pushes
Timely, quiet contextual notifications.
Rider App
Safety-first, clock-free language for delivery partners.
Dark Store Picker Tablet
Precision scanner feedback and FEFO date-checking prompts.
Motion Specimens

Curve & Spring Tokens
Live physics simulations. Tap "Replay" to inspect deceleration curves and bounce dynamics.
