# Webflow against Framer on what an agent reads

In short

Webflow lets site owners upload an llms.txt in Site settings, SEO, and serves it at the domain root while keeping it out of search indexes. Framer serves a markdown version of every page on the same URL when the request sends Accept: text/markdown, with no setup. Framer leads on markdown on request, 2 to 1; Webflow: Enterprise only, since 2026-04-02.

## The sourced difference

Framer serves a markdown version of every page on Accept: text/markdown or ?md with no setup; Webflow offers HTML-to-markdown through Cloudflare only on Enterprise sites since 2026-04-02 and accepts an uploaded llms.txt under 100 KB.

## The rubric side by side

| Key | Webflow | Framer |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Content in the initial HTML | 2, on by default | 2, on by default |
| Real status codes | 2, on by default | 2, on by default |
| llms.txt generation | 1, with setup | 1, with setup |
| llms.txt linking | 1, with setup | 1, with setup |
| Markdown on request | 1, with setup | 2, on by default |
| JSON-LD output | 1, with setup | 1, with setup |
| OpenAPI exposure | n/a | n/a |
| Fenced, tagged code | 1, with setup | 1, with setup |
| Total | 9 of 14 | 10 of 14 |

The two differ on 1 of the numeric keys: markdown on request. Evidence for each score is on the profiles of [Webflow](https://agentreadyhtml.com/platforms/webflow/) and [Framer](https://agentreadyhtml.com/platforms/framer/).

## Verdicts by reader

Technical SEO

Framer sites answer markdown requests out of the box; most Webflow sites do not.

Docs owner

Both need an owner-written llms.txt.

Front-end developer

Both prerender HTML; markdown on Webflow is a plan question, on Framer a default.

## What each leaves undone

### Webflow

-   Does not generate llms.txt.
-   Does not offer markdown negotiation below the Enterprise plan.

### Framer

-   Does not write the llms.txt content for the owner.
-   Does not document a switch to turn markdown output off.

Work left to the developer: Webflow, Medium: write and upload llms.txt, add a footer link, add JSON-LD as custom code; markdown needs Enterprise. Framer, Low: write llms.txt and link it; add JSON-LD in page settings.
