Framer 3.0 killed the marketplace

They removed template reviews. Now anyone can post anything without moderation. I have a feeling the marketplace is no longer needed for them, and they are shifting their focus entirely to AI agents.

Look, every prompt costs credits, and credits cost money. A landing page with an agent costs $5–10, and they want to change the whole process of creating pages with AI so people stop buying templates for $49.

No moderation — the marketplace is broken. Templates are low quality, and people are turning to agents to create things on their own.

Creators, people trusted Framer and built their reputation on this platform, and then, boom, we got this update. Framer chose recurring revenue from credits instead of an ecosystem of creators.

For a long time, I was thinking about moving into Framer template creation after working on client projects. But with this new system, I’d rather focus on my own business than work in this kind of environment or for potential clients.
