✨ Start with AI—design your portfolio, startup landing page, or book club site with ease. Choose from infinite color palettes and typeface combos. Customizing is a breeze with AI-generated copy and color shuffling. Your imagination is the limit.
Hey everyone! We’re excited to introduce a brand new way to start your very first website with Framer, powered by AI. Ask Framer to design your next personal portfolio, or a landing page for your startup, or a site about your weekly bookclub get together. Your imagination is the limit. You can even ask for a specific color scheme, or to mention specific details about your project. Pick between infinite generated color palettes, and tons of handpicked typeface combinations. Customizing is easier than ever, too. Select your header, and hit shuffle to try different colors within your palette. Or select the headline, and let AI rewrite the copy for you. It’s a brand new way to get up and running in seconds, and we think you’ll love it.
Hi @jurrehoutkamp. I'm from Venture Vault. We have 200+ VCs and Angels currently looking for AI projects. Are you interested in seed & private rounds? Please, contact me on Telegram (in my bio). I will create a group with my team to help match you with VCs. Congrats on the launch, amazing work. AI artist is already there!
So much fun to play with. Thank you for figuring out a way to help people like me (not trained in color theory) to explore color palettes in such a powerful way. Can't tell you how much time I have lost trying to source perfect color combos :)
Amazing and congrats!! If I ever want to rebuild my website from scratch, def going to be trying this out!! For now, still using Carrd made by @ajlkn ☺️
This is amazing. Game changer for many web designers. AI helps to kick off the project, make some additional adjustments and continue polishing it on our own. Incredible. Well done Framer team! 👏
Congrats on the launch!
I've ran Framer AI around 10 times already. Had a simple, side product idea I ran through it multiple times. Tried to get a landing page for that product.
What I found out is that with one paragraph of context, what I got was only good for entertainment lol, it was hilarious and I enjoyed it, but nothing more than that.
After that I've asked my GPT4 (trained on that project data) to come up with a detailed prompt to feed to Framer ai, to which I added to with every time I regenerated the page.
In summary I think the results can give some ideas for what to do for the page in terms of layout, sections, colors, graphics, but otherwise it's far from doing a page that would really work...
- Typography combinations, most of the times are weird. With those it make more sense to generate posters.
- Color palettes are far from what most of the best websites use.
- Some layouts and patterns look pretty good, but they repeat a lot with different prompts, which seems like the limitation of the first version of the AI. With the few times I ran the ai, I think I've got all the possible layout options it can output.
- Graphics looked creepy in some instances, mostly photorealistic ones, photos have been repeated across pages with different prompts.
- AI a lot of times missed basic understanding, like putting a CTA in the hero section.
What I liked:
- The output is fast and can be better than what a non-designer can come up with, which makes it much easier and cheaper for non-designers to publish better looking pages, which pushes the average quality of the websites on the internet further.
- How easy it is to tweak the color palette of the whole page.
- How ai can be used to reword any piece of text and similar use cases.
What can be there next:
- More functionality aiming at designers - components, more base layout options, patterns and graphics to easily swap.
- If adding a new page or section, would've been nice if AI can stylize or complete it based on the rest of the page.
It takes more context to design a great page, maybe there can be an "expert prompt" mode which will consist of multiple steps, describing each part of the page, the goals, industry and related context, why are we designing the page, the audience, personas, what's the story we want to convey, then explain typography choices, colors, then feed some inspiration or our own assets, icons, photos and other content.
Maybe if we were to feed all that stuff in detail right now, the ai would have came up with a really strong version. But at this point it may be easier to do it manually in Figma, because otherwise designing the page comes down to managing and feeding the right data. What are your thoughts on that? And the future of ai for web design?
Excited to explore this more and see where it goes from here!
Thanks @maxdo for your complete and relevant response, as I agree with ALL points you raised.
I experienced the same friction about layout design understanding (training), and continuity if adding a section or a page. I think Framer team got all of this in mind, as I presume it's their very first feature iteration launch.
The 3 breakpoints' real-time design is mindblowing!
I hope they will develop this very promising feature in those directions for pro-designers though.
As the website AI generators competition is clearly open, with upcoming new players that advertise last days, and last week. I am excited to see how Framer will be distinguished with custom subfeatures and workflows.
Congrats to Framer Team!!!!
Best!
I'm usually super excited by anything Makers from Framer launch, but this is just mindblowing. I woke up this morning with one thing in mind: let's play with Framer AI today.
Congrats on the launch! And thank you for making it fun for me to create new things.
