UI done ✅ All built directly in @framer with @cursor_ai. Next step: submission → payment → database → ranking Now let’s do some testing.

I'm running a little experiment to see what's possible with @framer and AI. I’m going to build one of these live leaderboards like outbid.lol on @getframeplate today. Just Framer + Cursor (Grok 4.6) I’ll document everything here so follow along. First prompt is in 🔥

My take on the whole @framer Marketplace thing (and what I think creators can do about it). I’ve been using Framer for nearly 4 years and running @getframeplate for the past 3 where I’ve tried to give creators more exposure for their work. But the reality is that the template business as we knew it is over. And the best thing you can do is accept it. Why would someone buy a $129 template if they can give a screenshot (or link) of a template to the Agent and ask it to build something similar? The new Marketplace and the AI Agent launched on the same day and everyone seems to be fixating on the Marketplace. Yes, opening the floodgates and the huge influx of new templates definitely affected visibility for existing creators. But I don’t think this is only a discovery problem. The Agent introduced a completely new workflow in which templates become secondary. People no longer have to find a template, buy it and customise it. They can start with a prompt and just use existing templates as references. You can also see this shift in how Framer now positions itself. Its homepage is 100% centred around the Agent and clearly presents Framer as an AI website builder. No direct mentions of templates anymore. And just take a look at the ads they're running too. That tells you where the company is going. Framer went from competing mainly with Figma and Webflow to going after Lovable, Base44, Claude and every other AI site builder. It might not have been the decision template creators wanted but it's the one they made. And personally I believe it was the right one if Framer wants to remain competitive. It’s simply the end of one era and the beginning of another. So what can you do as a creator? 1. Turn your templates into free products or design systems that help people get better results from Framer Agent (you can still earn the affiliate commission) 2. Use the expertise you gained from shipping templates to teach people how to build with AI in Framer (ook at how many ads/sponsors Framer is running right now - go get your piece of the pie) 3. Move into client work and use AI to deliver better work faster (there will always be clients needing websites) The opportunity hasn’t disappeared. It has just changed.

Gave the @getframeplate blog page a bit of a revamp today with @framer agents ✨

So much happened with @framer this month that I decided to bring back the @getframeplate newsletter 📧 A monthly roundup of the biggest Framer updates, useful articles, templates and resources worth checking out 👇 frameplate.beehiiv.com/p/fra…
