Carrd

What it is for

Carrd is a one-page site builder: you keep Jane Doe / Adam Jensen rows on a generator table with Edit / Delete / Add Asset, and Free/Basic is $0. Use it when the job is a one-page site you start at a public $, not when you need a multi-page CMS.

Soft-note: Free/Basic $0 + Pro Lite $9 / Standard $19 / Plus $49 per year. Distinct from Webflow, Framer, Super.so, Softr, and Durable.

What makes it unique: the cover is Carrd’s official Carrd Generator desk (Add Site / Regenerate All / Docs, columns ID / Content / Assets / Actions, rows Jane Doe fullstack developer with all the skills / Adam Jensen / Untitled / Maximum Unreality, Edit / Delete / Add Asset) from themakingof.carrd.co — not a Product Hunt card or logo poster. The Jane Doe row itself is ops of the table. Today’s hosted builder is the same stack (Canvas + Properties Panel + Menu) on docs/building/overview.

Key features

• Carrd Generator — the site table (cover still; The Making Of). One desk. Cover Jane Doe sits here.
• Toolbar — Add Site / Regenerate All / Docs (cover). Actions, not a $19 meter.
• Content column — Jane Doe / Adam Jensen / Untitled / Maximum Unreality (cover). A row, not Plus.
• Assets — avatar01.jpg / pixels.gif / city.jpg (cover). Files, not Lite.
• Row actions — Edit / Delete / Add Asset (cover). Buttons, not yearly.
• Builder (today) — Canvas + Properties Panel (Main / Appearance / Animation) + Menu (overview). Same product; the cover is the official generator desk.

Add Site on the cover is a CTA (not a sixth desk). Lite / Standard / Plus tiles stay in Pricing.

Who it's for

Best fit: people who will stay on Free/Basic at $0 while they publish a first one-page site, then Pro Standard at $19/year when they need a custom domain and forms — not Plus $49 first unless they need 25 sites / custom forms / unminified download.

Pricing

Verified 2026-10-23 (Asia/Shanghai) from carrd.com/docs/pro/plans. Soft-note: Free/Basic exists; Pro is yearly.

• Free / Basic — $0. Plans copy: Pro Lite is “improvements over the free Basic experience.” Do not invent a Free site-count beyond what that page prints on the Pro cards.
• Pro Lite — $9 / year. 3 sites. Premium .crd.co URLs, no “Made with Carrd” branding, no element limit, premium / custom templates.
• Pro Standard — $19 / year. 10 sites. Custom domains + SSL, forms, widgets, embeds, analytics, meta tags, local fonts.
• Pro Plus — $49 / year. 25 sites. Everything in Standard plus custom forms, Advanced Settings, unminified source download.
• Trial — carrd.com/pro mentions a free trial. Do not invent a day count if the card you open does not print one.

Confirm checkout; taxes follow your location.

Limitations / costs

• One page per site. Sections exist; it is still not Webflow’s multi-page CMS.
• Custom domains start at Standard $19/year. Lite stays on .crd.co.
• A generator + builder, not Framer’s canvas CMS. For that canvas see Framer.
• The hosted app is not OSS. We omit a GitHub CTA.

Alternatives

• Webflow — a multi-page designer when you want that CMS, not Carrd’s Jane Doe row.
• Framer — a canvas site when you want that desk, not Add Site on a one-page stack.
• Super.so — a Notion-to-site when you want that publish path, not Pro Standard $19/year.

Official tutorial

We searched for an official Carrd YouTube channel before writing this. Handles we resolved (Cartd, community carrdism playlists) are not first-party. We do not embed them as officialVideo. Use the written Building overview and The Making Of.
