You designed in Figma and need it built in Framer. How to choose the studio that ships it fast and pixel-accurate.
Artyum Grebenyuk Founder, AGR Studio You have your design finished in Figma and you need it built in Framer. The build decides whether the site ships fast and pixel-accurate or turns into a slow, brittle version of your design. Here is how to choose the studio that gets it right.
What Figma to Framer actually involves
Framer is not an export target. A good build reconstructs your Figma layers as responsive, component-based layouts inside Framer, wires up a CMS for anything repeatable, and sets up SEO and performance. Done well, your team can update content without touching layout. Done badly, the design is copy-pasted and breaks on the first mobile breakpoint.
Five things a strong Figma to Framer studio does
- Rebuilds layers into responsive auto-layout, not fixed frames, so every breakpoint holds.
- Maps repeatable content like blog, case studies, team, and careers to a Framer CMS your team can edit.
- Keeps component and token structure aligned with your Figma file, so design changes propagate cleanly.
- Builds SEO in from the start: meta, structured data, clean headings, fast Core Web Vitals.
- Adds motion and interaction natively in Framer, not bolted on with fragile embeds.
Freelancer, specialist studio, or general agency
| Route | Best for | Watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Solo Framer freelancer | Small sites, tight budgets, direct control | Capacity limits, less design-system depth |
| Framer-specialist studio | Premium B2B sites, complex CMS, ongoing work | Higher cost, book ahead |
| General web agency | Multi-platform programs | Framer is often a side skill, weaker builds |
Questions to ask before you hire
- Can I see live Framer sites you built from Figma, with URLs?
- Who does the actual build, and have they done it before?
- How do you structure the CMS so my team can edit safely?
- What is included for SEO and performance?
- Do I fully own the Framer project at handover?
The studios that do this well share a pattern: the people who pitch also doing the build, a real CMS, and SEO treated as part of the work. AGR Studio works this way, hands-on and Framer-focused, for B2B brands that want the site to match the product.
