Visit Webflow →About Webflow
Webflow started as a visual builder that let designers produce production-grade HTML, CSS and JavaScript without writing code, backed by a built-in CMS and hosting. That manual designer is still the core, but the product has moved well beyond it.
As of July 2026 there are no numbered versions. The headline additions are a standalone AI Site Builder that generates a full multi-page site from a text prompt, plus a broader repositioning as an 'agentic web platform' — AEO (answer-engine optimization) agents, native AI-generated React components, and automatic AI localization.
On May 13, 2026 Webflow overhauled its plans. The old CMS and Business site plans were merged into a single Premium plan, Basic doubled its static-page allowance to 300, a high-end Team platform plan was introduced, and AI credits were folded into every Workspace tier, with quota enforcement starting June 29, 2026.
Pricing spans a free Starter site plan on a webflow.io subdomain, Basic at $15/mo yearly for a custom domain, and Premium at $25/mo yearly for the full CMS, code components and site search. E-commerce runs $29 to $212/mo, while platform plans go from Team at $2,500/mo up to a custom Enterprise quote. Workspace plans (Starter free, Core $19/mo, Growth $49/mo) bundle 200 to 400 AI credits, with a 2,000-credit add-on at $20/mo.
The main trade-offs are a steep learning curve for the visual designer, pricing that stacks up once you combine site and workspace plans, and AI credits that can run out on heavier use. It remains more designer-oriented than a simple template builder.
Webflow suits designers and agencies who want pixel-level control with clean exported code, teams that need a real CMS, and anyone wanting to spin up a first draft quickly with the AI Site Builder before refining it by hand.
