Palette & spacing overlap
Their palettes share 17% of swatches at the dominant tier — a quiet signal both teams drew from the same neutral library before applying brand accents. Their spacing scales overlap by 50% (4, 8, 16, 20, 24 px shared) — a rhythm any agent can transfer between the two systems with minimal recalibration.

Curator verdict
Pick a side. Mixing Brex's both-first canvas with Wispr Flow's expressive motion vocabulary produces visual whiplash. Adopt one system as your primary, study the other for individual technique transfers (e.g. Brex's spacing, Wispr Flow's shadow).
