Your Designer Ships in Framer. Your Developer Wants Next.js. We Build Both.

We are a Framer agency that also knows when Framer stops being the right tool. Design-led marketing sites in Framer. Code-grade builds in Next.js or Astro. Migration both directions when the moment comes.

Production Framer sites for design-first teams who don't want to learn Webflow. Framer CMS, animations, Figma design-system imports, and Lighthouse fixes that Framer's default output won't give you. We also handle Framer-to-React migrations when your team outgrows the platform.

What a Framer agency does

A Framer agency builds production marketing sites inside Framer, handles the Figma design-system import that most clients skip, and runs the optimization pass that takes a Framer site from middling Lighthouse to genuinely fast. The harder half of the job is knowing when Framer stops being the right tool -- and running the export to Next.js or Astro cleanly when that day arrives. We do both. We also build for design-first teams who don't want to learn Webflow's CSS abstractions, which is most of them.

Your Current Site May Be a Liability

Common gaps we find in nearly every audit.

Your designer ships gorgeous Figma files and your developer turns them into a site that looks 70% of the way there
Risk: Months of revision cycles. Animations drift. Spacing shifts. The launched site never quite matches the file. Brand consistency erodes one breakpoint at a time.
You built the site in Framer yourself, the Lighthouse score is 47, and your SEO consultant is asking pointed questions
Risk: Slow LCP, JS-heavy first paint, no schema control. Rankings stall. The site looks great and performs like 2018.
You're three years into Framer and now you need a feature Framer cannot ship -- auth, payments, real backend
Risk: You either build a hacky workaround that breaks at the worst moment, or you rebuild the whole site from scratch. Most teams pick the worst version of both.
Your Figma design system has 40 components and your Framer site has 6, none of them named the same way
Risk: Every new page becomes a custom job. The design system stops being a system. Brand consistency dies the death of a thousand small overrides.

How We Build This Right

Every safeguard, built in from Day 1.

Framer CMS, Done Properly

Real content modeling -- not three text fields and a hope. We design the CMS schema around how your team actually publishes: editorial workflows, status fields, related-content slots, and SEO controls per page.

Figma Design System Import

We rebuild your Figma components as Framer components -- variants, props, design tokens all preserved. Your design team works in either tool, and the brand stays consistent across both surfaces.

Lighthouse Optimization Pass

AVIF/WebP encoding on every hero, LCP image preload, deferred non-critical scripts, font subsetting, CMS render tuning. Typical lift: 60s baseline up to 88-95 on mobile. Real Core Web Vitals, not a vanity number.

Bidirectional Migration

Coming from Webflow, WordPress, or a raw HTML stack? We migrate cleanly into Framer with 301 redirects mapped. Outgrowing Framer? We export to Next.js or Astro and rebuild the data layer in Supabase. See /migrate/framer-to-nextjs.

What We Build

Purpose-built features for your industry.

Production Framer sites your designer can extend without breaking the brand -- components named after your Figma library, variants that match

New pages stop being a custom job. The design team adds a case study in 20 minutes instead of two days.

Animations that ship at 60fps on mid-tier laptops, not just your designer's M3 Pro

We profile every interaction on a real range of devices. The hero animation that looks magic in Figma also runs smoothly on a $400 Chromebook.

CMS schemas designed around how your editorial team actually publishes -- status, scheduling, related content, SEO-per-page

Your content lead stops opening tickets for every blog post. The publishing flow gets out of the way.

Clean code export and Next.js or Astro rebuild when you outgrow Framer -- with 301 redirects, schema parity, and no lost rankings

The migration that most teams dread takes 3-6 weeks instead of a quarter, and your search traffic carries over instead of dropping 40%.

Our Development Process

From discovery to launch. Quality at every step.

01

Audit + Plan

Week 1

30-minute call, then a written plan covering page count, CMS schema, animation scope, and the Figma component map. If we think Webflow or Next.js is a better fit for your project, we'll say so up front.

02

Design System Import

Week 1-2

Figma components rebuilt as Framer components -- variants, props, tokens preserved. This is the step most agencies skip and most clients regret skipping. It pays back across every page that follows.

03

Build + Animate

Week 2-4

Pages, CMS, interactions, and animation passes. Daily Loom walkthroughs, weekly review calls. Your team approves direction continuously instead of in one tense launch-day review.

04

Optimize + Ship

Week 4-5

Lighthouse pass, SEO setup, 301 redirects from the old site, analytics, schema markup. We hit publish together and watch the first 48 hours of Core Web Vitals data come in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Framer is design-tool-native. If your team already lives in Figma, the muscle memory carries over -- auto-layout, components, variants, and breakpoints work the same way. Webflow is closer to a CSS abstraction layer, which is great for developers and frustrating for designers. For brand-led marketing sites under 50 pages, Framer ships faster with less back-and-forth. For listings, directories, or content sites past a few hundred pages, Webflow or a real CMS wins. See /compare/framer-vs-webflow for the full breakdown.
It depends what 'scale' means. Framer CMS handles a few hundred items fine -- blog posts, case studies, team pages. Past that, you hit ceiling: no real database, limited filtering, no server-side logic, and SEO performance gets thin on long-tail pages. If you need 1,000+ programmatic pages or any logged-in experience, we migrate the site to Next.js. See /migrate/framer-to-nextjs.
Three triggers. First, you need a feature Framer cannot ship -- auth, payments, complex search, or a real backend. Second, your team has outgrown the no-code workflow and a developer is being held back by it. Third, your SEO data shows Framer's default rendering is costing you (slow LCP, JS-heavy first paint, weak schema control). In all three cases we run the export-to-React workflow and harden the output in Next.js or Astro.
Default Framer ships a lot of JS, lazy-loads aggressively, and serves heavier-than-needed images. Our optimization pass covers: switching to AVIF/WebP heroes (we re-encode every asset), preloading the LCP image, deferring non-critical scripts, killing unused fonts, and tuning the CMS render. Typical result: 60s baseline up to 88-95 on mobile.
Stay on Framer hosting for a pure marketing site. The CDN is fine and the publish workflow is one click for your team. Move to Vercel when you have exported the site to React/Next.js, or when you need edge functions, ISR, or a custom CDN config. See /capabilities/vercel-deployment.
Yes. We rebuild your Figma components as Framer components -- variants, props, and tokens all preserved. Once that's in place, your design team works in either tool and the brand stays consistent. Typical setup runs 1-2 weeks for a 20-30 component library.
Marketing site (10-15 pages, custom design, animations, CMS): $6,000 to $14,000. Framer build with custom code components: $12,000 to $25,000. Framer to Next.js migration: $8,000 to $20,000 depending on page count and integrations. Fixed-fee, no hourly billing.
