After the Framer 3.0 update that introduced AI agents, I immediately knew this would totally change how templates are used.

But many are asking if templates are still relevant when you can build anything from scratch with AI.

I believe templates are still useful for many reasons:

- They serve as a visual base. Way easier to get inspired.

- They save you credits. Generating a good base website can take you a lot of prompts.

- They’re still more visually polished than what AIs produce

In the future, I think the most successful templates will be the one that are excellent to use as a base for AI.

This is why I decided I’ll go this route with my template business.

In the next few months, I’ll rework on my templates to make them the best ones to use with AI.

I’ll keep sharing progress, thoughts, results and learnings.

Excited to see how the market evolves from now.
