Webflow

Visual development platform for designers, with CMS and hosting

Overview

Webflow is a visual website development platform founded in 2013 by Vlad and Sergie Magdalin; it reports 300,000 organisations using it and US$335 million in funding to date, and its chief executive is Linda Tong[12]. It is primarily a full website builder with a content management system rather than a landing page tool, but marketing teams at software companies frequently use it for campaign pages because pages share the main site’s design system and domain.

Webflow has added several conversion features. Webflow Optimize, an add-on, provides A/B testing, personalisation, AI-driven variant selection, audience targeting by device, behaviour, UTM and location, and integrations that send experiment data to Google Analytics 4, Segment, Mixpanel and HubSpot[11]. Webflow Analyze provides built-in analytics, including traffic from AI agents[11]. A newer product, Webflow Campaigns, is sold to marketers for creating on-brand landing pages and ads alongside any CMS, starting at US$2,000 a month[11].

The trade-off is complexity and cost. The designer exposes CSS concepts that non-technical marketers find harder than drag-and-drop builders, and Optimize starts at US$299 a month on top of the site plan, with only five concurrent optimisations below Enterprise[11].
