How Carrd and Framer compare
Carrd is intentionally small. One-page sites, responsive by default, with forms, embeds, and payment buttons on Pro, for a price that is low. When you need a landing page, a profile, or a coming-soon page today, Carrd could be the right tool.
Framer is the fastest way from design canvas to live site. Freeform layout, effects and animations, a CMS, localization, and a template community let designers publish marketing sites that look and move like products. If you think in Figma and want the site to feel that way, Framer is a joy.
Where they are different
