Framer AI + Marketplace

Built a marketplace with Framer AI?
We'll make it production-ready.

Marketplaces are among the hardest apps to build well because they serve two distinct user types (buyers and sellers) with different needs, handle money flowing between users, and require trust systems. AI tools can scaffold the UI quickly, but the critical backend logic — escrow, disputes, ratings, and split payments — needs careful implementation.

Marketplace challenges in Framer AI apps

Building a marketplace with Framer AI is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.

Payment splitting and payouts

Buyers pay, the platform takes a cut, sellers receive the rest. This requires Stripe Connect or similar — significantly more complex than basic checkout. AI tools rarely implement this correctly, leaving you with manual payout processes.

Two-sided authorization

Sellers can manage their listings but not other sellers'. Buyers can view listings but only manage their own orders. Admins can moderate everything. Three distinct permission levels, all enforced server-side.

Trust and safety

Reviews, ratings, dispute resolution, content moderation, and fraud detection. These are complex systems that AI tools don't generate but that make or break a marketplace.

Search and discovery

Users need to find what they're looking for. Basic database queries won't cut it at scale — you need full-text search, filters, sorting, and potentially geolocation. This requires proper indexing or a dedicated search service.

Real-time communication

Buyers and sellers need to communicate. In-app messaging, notifications, and order status updates require real-time capabilities that AI tools often implement superficially.

Data integrity

Inventory counts, order statuses, payment states, and user balances must be consistent. Race conditions (two buyers purchasing the last item simultaneously) require careful database design.

Common Framer AI issues we fix

Beyond marketplace-specific issues, these are Framer AI patterns we commonly fix.

highSecurity

Missing SEO metadata on generated pages

Framer AI generates visually complete pages but frequently omits Open Graph tags, canonical URLs, structured data, and meta descriptions that search engines and social sharing require.

highBugs

No form backend or data handling

Contact forms, newsletter signups, and lead capture elements are rendered in the UI but submit to no endpoint by default, silently discarding user submissions.

mediumPerformance

Heavy animation runtime hurting Core Web Vitals

Framer Motion's runtime and the animation-heavy pages Framer AI generates add significant JavaScript weight, causing poor Largest Contentful Paint and Total Blocking Time scores that hurt SEO.

mediumDeployment

CMS content limits blocking at scale

Framer's built-in CMS has item limits, no custom field types, and no programmatic data import. Apps that grow beyond simple blog posts hit these ceilings quickly.
