Downgrade — pay for the workflow, not the AI

Framer covers the headline feature free, so the $15/mo is now paying for the workflow around it.

The backstory

Durable generated a complete small-business site from a couple of answers, which was genuinely striking in 2023. Wix, Squarespace, Hostinger and Framer all shipped equivalents within a year, usually bundled with hosting people already buy. Durable is wounded by its own idea becoming standard.

Escape hatches

switching could free up $180/yr
