Which plan to pickBasic is enough for most small business sites, and the free custom domain on a yearly plan makes it good value. Move to Pro when you pass 30 pages or want more than two CMS collections. Budget for extra editor seats at $20 a month if more than one person will design.Stay on Free if you make the odd page. Plus is the sensible paid plan; the credit allowance matches what you pay, so treat it as pay-as-you-go with a monthly minimum. Business costs over three times as much for the same credits, so only pick it for the data protections.Start on Free to see whether the chat-to-build approach suits you. Move to Pro the moment you are building something real, and buy a higher credit tier rather than topping up if you run out most months. Business only makes sense once several people need to log in and manage the apps.

Pros and cons

AttributeFramerv0Lovable
Pros
  • Best-looking sites for the least effort
  • Smooth animations and interactions without a developer
  • Hosting, CMS and a domain are all in one bill

  • Visual edits for small tweaks save credits
  • Large community and plenty of tutorials
Cons
  • Extra editors at $20 a month each make team use pricey
  • The CMS is shallower than Webflow's for big content sites
  • No logins, user accounts or app features
  • Moving a site off Framer later is hard, there is no clean export
  • Plus is $30 per user, and credits are spent as you go on top of that
  • Weak at logins, databases and anything beyond the front end
  • The 7-message free limit runs out fast
  • You need a Vercel account and some comfort with GitHub to get the most from it
  • Credits run out faster than you expect, and fixing its own mistakes costs credits too
  • Hosting and AI usage inside your app draw from the same allowance as building
  • Complex logic or unusual integrations often need a developer to finish
  • The free plan is too tight to ship anything
