What is Framer?

Framer is a design tool that publishes what you design as a live, responsive website, with a CMS, animations and AI features built in. The free plan includes a free Framer domain, up to 1,000 pages, 10 CMS collections, 1 GB of bandwidth and 500 AI credits to try. Paid site plans start at $10 a month.

Pros: what Framer does well

  • Design and publish a real website in one tool
  • Free plan with a Framer domain and CMS collections
  • Polished animations without writing code

Cons: where it falls short

  • Custom domains need a paid plan
  • Focused on websites rather than app UI design

Who Framer is for

Designers who want to ship marketing sites without handing off to developers.

Who can skip it

Teams designing mobile app interfaces.
