Reviewer scorecard
“I build client landing pages in 20 minutes now. The AI generates a beautiful starting point and the visual editor lets me perfect every detail. Clients can't tell it's AI-built.”
“Beautiful output with zero design effort. The auto-layout for flowcharts is magical compared to manual tools.”
“The CMS integration and component system are well-designed. For marketing sites and portfolios, Framer is the fastest path from idea to deployed site.”
“The fastest way to create clean flowcharts and wireframes. Constraints that force good design are a feature, not a bug.”
“Limitations show up when you need custom functionality beyond what's built in. But for 90% of websites — marketing, portfolio, blog — it's better and faster than coding from scratch.”
“Intentionally limited scope means it does a few things exceptionally well. Refreshing in a market of bloated tools.”
