Framer

What it is for

Framer is a hosted Canvas / Pages desk: you open Canvas and switch Pages / Layers / Assets, and Free is $0 (500 AI credits, Framer domain, 1 GB). Use it when the job is a site canvas you start at a public $, not when you need a $0 Typedream Insert menu.

What makes it unique: the cover is Framer’s official editor chrome (Canvas dropdown, Pages / Layers / Assets, Search, + / type tools, Pages +) from the Building Framer Agents still — not a finished marketing site alone. The Pages / Layers / Assets row itself is ops of the editor.

Key features

• Canvas — the editor surface plus the Canvas dropdown (cover still; product). One desk. Cover Canvas sits here.
• Pages / Layers / Assets — the three tabs under the toolbar (cover). A tree, not a Search field.
• Search — the filter on Pages (cover Search). A search, not a Layers tab.
• Insert tools — + / frame / T / shape on the Canvas bar (cover). A tool, not an Assets label.
• Effects / Transitions — Instant / Ease / Spring plus the bezier curve (official still Transition Ease In Out / Bezier 0.44, 0, 0.56, 1 / Time 0.3). An effects panel, not a $20 editor seat.
• Invite / Deploy — the Content / Deploy invite card on the same still (official still james@company.com Content, Deploy / Aroa Gil Bo Viewing now). A publish / collab desk, not a CMS $40 add-on. Send sits here as a CTA, not a sixth desk.

Pages + / Send on these stills are CTAs (not desks). Free / Basic / Pro tiles, additional editors $20, content editors $10, locale $20, CMS $40/10 collections, and bandwidth $40/100 GB stay in Pricing — not Key features. 500 Free AI credits are an AI extra, not a sixth desk.

Who it's for

Best fit: designers who will stay on Free at $0 (500 AI credits, Framer domain, 1 GB) while they open a first Canvas, then Basic at $10/month when they need the first paid site tile — not Pro $30 unless they need the next printed plan, and not extra editors $20 unless they add a second editor.
