Product preview

Overview
Webflow is where professional web design went when it left code: a visual builder that emits production-grade CSS and markup, with a CMS, interactions, hosting and SEO folded in. Its AI additions — an Assistant that drafts sites and copy, AI-powered personalization for different visitor segments — extend rather than replace a tool that agencies already run businesses on.
The honest characterization: Webflow is more powerful and much harder than Framer AI's instant sites. The learning curve is real (it helps to think in CSS), pricing climbs with sites and CMS scale, and AI here assists a skilled operator rather than replacing one. For agencies, in-house web teams and designers who want pixel-true control with a publish button, Webflow remains the professional default — Framer for speed, Webflow for the craft at scale.
