What is it?

Framer is a website builder that works like a design tool. You drag, arrange and style a page on a canvas, and what you see is exactly what gets published, including smooth animations that usually need a developer.

Its AI features generate whole pages and sections from a prompt, write copy, translate, and since 2026 can edit live pages for you. It has become the default for startup marketing sites because the results look premium without a designer on staff.

It is a website tool, not an app tool. If you need logins, dashboards or a database, look at Lovable or Softr instead.
