Collaborate in real time
Learn how to collaborate on projects in real time.
Framer supports real-time collaboration, allowing multiple people to work on the same project simultaneously. You can see who’s viewing a project, communicate directly on the canvas, and follow collaborators as they work.
See who’s in a project
In the top-right corner of the editor, you’ll see profile photos for people who have accessed the project.
Profile photo states indicate activity:
Status | Description |
|---|---|
Colored | The user is currently viewing the project. |
Greyed out | The user has viewed the project previously but is not currently active. |
Hover over a profile photo to see when that person last accessed the project.
Invite collaborators
To invite people to a project:
Click your profile photo in the top-right corner.
Open the invite panel.
Enter the collaborator’s email address.
Select their role or permissions.
Send the invitation.
Available permissions depend on your plan and workspace settings.
For more information, see Members, roles, and permissions.
Use cursor chat
When multiple people are viewing the same page, their cursors appear on the canvas.
To send a cursor message:
Press
/.Type your message.
Your message appears next to your cursor and remains visible to collaborators while your cursor is within their viewport.
Cursor chat is useful for quick feedback and coordination without leaving the canvas.
Follow a collaborator
You can jump directly to the area another collaborator is viewing.
To follow someone:
Hover over their profile photo.
Click the eye icon.
Your canvas will automatically move to the section they are currently viewing.
This is helpful during reviews, walkthroughs, and collaborative editing sessions.
