What is Framer?

Framer is a website builder and visual design platform in which AI agents generate and refine pages directly on an editable canvas. Sites are published from the same tool, with hosting, a CMS, SEO controls and analytics built in. It is aimed at marketing sites, portfolios and landing pages rather than full applications, and paid plans are bought per site with extra editors charged separately.

Framer has a free plan. Paid plans start at $10 per site / month, billed yearly (Basic). See every plan

Good for

  • Designers and marketers building marketing sites, portfolios and landing pages
  • Teams that want AI-generated pages they can still adjust by hand
  • Students and early-stage startups, who can apply for a free year

Worth knowing

  • Framer builds websites rather than applications, and each published site needs its own plan.
  • Additional editors cost $20 a month each, or $10 for content-only editors, on top of the site plan.
  • Basic stops at 30 pages and 2 CMS collections; staging and branching need Pro.
  • The desktop app covers Mac and Windows only; no mobile or Linux app is listed.

Key features

Agents on the canvas
A design agent generates and refines layouts in place, and other agents manage CMS content or write code components. Each change stays visible and editable.
Visual design canvas
Pages are laid out on a freeform canvas with responsive breakpoints, components and effects, with no coding needed for layout or interactions.
Built-in CMS
Collections, fields and detail pages hold a site's content: 2 collections and 1,000 items on Basic, 10 collections and 2,500 items on Pro.
Hosting and publishing
Sites publish to built-in hosting with custom domains, SSL and analytics. Pro adds a staging environment, site redirects and 90 days of analytics history.
Live collaboration
Teams work together with multiplayer cursors, comments, roles and branch previews. Viewers are free, and extra editors are billed per seat.
External agents and Server API
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other AI tools can connect to a project, and a Server API updates and publishes sites from a script without opening Framer.
