What is Framer?

Framer is an app creation tool. Framer pairs an AI agent with a full design canvas: describe a page or update, get editable sections, copy, and visuals, then refine manually. CMS, code components, pre-publish audits, and traffic analysis are handled by the same agent.

Framer is a website builder where an AI agent works inside the same project as your design canvas. You describe the site, page, or change you want in plain language, and the agent produces editable pages, sections, copy, and visuals rather than a locked template. From there you can keep going in the chat or take over manually, adjusting layout, typography, components, breakpoints, spacing, color, and effects. The point is that generation and fine control live in one place, so nothing has to be rebuilt after the first draft. The agent is not limited to laying out pages. It can create and populate CMS collections, write code components for interactions and live features, review a site before publishing for contrast problems, typos, missing alt text, SEO gaps, and inconsistent styles, and analyze traffic to surface top pages, drop-offs, search intent, and conversion gaps. Multiple models are selectable depending on the task, and Skills let you save repeatable instructions such as a design system rule or an SEO check so the agent applies them consistently. Context can be added by selecting layers on the canvas, mentioning pages, collections, styles, or assets, or uploading files and URLs as references. It suits designers who want a first draft without hand-building every section, small teams shipping marketing sites without a dedicated developer, and content operators who need CMS work done quickly. Publishing, hosting, SEO, and analytics are part of the same product, which removes the usual export step. Compared with pure prompt-to-site generators, Framer keeps a professional canvas underneath the AI, and compared with traditional builders, it front-loads the build. The tradeoff is that the strongest results assume some design literacy, and external coding agents connect through a separate setup flow rather than natively.

How do you use Framer?

  1. 1Create an account and open a project
    Sign up, then start a new project or open an existing one. The agent and the canvas share the same workspace, so you can switch between them at any time.

  2. 2Brief the agent on what to build
    Describe the website, page, or update you need, including tone, structure, and sections. Attach images, files, or URLs as references if you want a specific look.

  3. 3Add context and pick a model
    Select layers on the canvas to feed them to the chat, type @ to reference pages, CMS collections, styles, or assets, and choose a model suited to the task.
  4. 4Refine on the canvas
    Take over manually to adjust layouts, components, breakpoints, spacing, color, and effects. The agent keeps working from the same project when you return to chat.

  6. 6Audit and publish
    Ask the agent to review the site for contrast issues, typos, missing alt text, and SEO gaps, fix what it flags, then publish with hosting and analytics attached.
