Elementor alternatives

The best Elementor alternatives in 2026

The closest Elementor alternatives are FNJ, 10Web, WordPress.com, Webflow, Wix and Framer. Elementor's Site Planner drafts the plan and wireframes, but the finished site is built in the Elementor editor on WordPress, and many features need Elementor Pro. Below, each one compared on what it builds, whether you can take the code with you, where the site has to live and what's free.

FNJ makes one of the builders compared here, so weigh our view with that in mind. Facts about other products come from each vendor's own website, checked in October 2026; plans change, so confirm on the vendor's site before you buy.

Elementor at a glance

Elementor at a glance
Elementor
What it buildsWordPress websites edited with the Elementor page builder, including WooCommerce-based stores on paid plans.
Its AISite Planner turns a guided AI chat (or notes from a recorded Google Meet) into a site brief, then drafts a sitemap and wireframes that can be regenerated page by page before creating the site. Elementor also offers Angie, a separate agentic AI plugin for building pages and managing WordPress sites.
Free planFree plan. The core Elementor plugin is listed as forever free (32 widgets, landing page builder, Hello theme) but needs your own WordPress hosting and excludes Theme Builder, Form Builder, Popup Builder, eCommerce features and support. Elementor's blog says Site Planner is free to use. A site launched on Elementor Host from Site Planner without a subscription exists for 14 days.

6 Elementor alternatives

FNJ is listed first because it's ours; the rest are ordered by how closely they match what Elementor does.

01FNJ AI website builder

Made by us

Best for: a marketing site you want to own as code

Responsive marketing websites: business sites, portfolios, landing pages and product marketing sites.

Designs every page from your description plus a screenshot, a link or your brand files, on a visual canvas at desktop, tablet and phone widths.

Free plan
No free plan. There's no trial either. The Site Pack is $29 once for 50 credits, about three complete sites of up to 10 pages, and every site you build is yours to keep.
Paid plans from
$29 once, or $25/month
Code export
Full code export. A Next.js App Router project or static HTML, downloaded or pushed to a branch of your own GitHub repository, on every plan.
Hosting
Host anywhere. FNJ doesn't host sites. Put the export on Cloudflare Pages, Vercel, Netlify or any host, with no FNJ runtime in the code.
AI agent access
Official MCP server. An MCP server with 19 tools for Cursor, Codex and other MCP clients; you choose read-only or read-and-write when you connect, and nothing goes live until publish is called.

Good at

  • Designs from references: screenshots, links or your own brand files
  • Desktop, tablet and phone layouts designed together, with real flex and grid
  • You keep the code: plain Next.js or HTML with no FNJ runtime

Watch out for

  • Marketing sites only: no forms, store, log-ins, databases or blog engine
  • No free plan or trial
  • You host the site yourself

0210Web AI Website Builder

Best for: a WordPress site with AI building and managed WordPress hosting

WordPress websites, online stores and simple apps (bookings, memberships, forms), hosted by 10Web.

Starts from a prompt, a link or a file, proposes a site plan, then builds every page; agents can redesign an existing page, clone a page from a URL or convert a Figma file. Changes are made by chatting with AI or in a visual editor.

Free plan
Free trial. The AI builder FAQ describes a 3-day free trial with 5 AI credits and says a paid plan is needed to launch and keep the site. Another FAQ on the same page says building and launching on a yoursite.10web.site address is free; the two statements conflict.
Paid plans from
Not clearly published
Code export
Full code export. No static HTML/CSS export, because pages are generated by WordPress. A full site backup can be downloaded from the dashboard, and SSH, SFTP and phpMyAdmin access are provided for backup or migration.
Hosting
Their hosting is optional. AI-built sites are hosted on 10Web's WordPress hosting (Google Cloud); the help center documents full backup download and SFTP access for moving the files.
AI agent access
None documented. 10Web lists a website-builder MCP as coming soon; its live Website Builder API is a partner product, not an agent connection for your own site.

Good at

  • Builds on a full WordPress backend, so WordPress plugins can be added
  • Store features listed: product and order management, checkout, payments
  • Can start from an existing site URL or a Figma file

Watch out for

  • Free access is a short trial per the builder FAQ; launching needs a paid plan
  • No static HTML export; moving off 10Web means migrating a WordPress site
  • Listed prices depend on paying 12 months upfront

03WordPress.com AI website builder

Best for: a blog or content site on managed WordPress hosting

WordPress sites such as blogs, portfolios and service business websites, hosted on WordPress.com.

You describe the site, answer the AI's questions and review a site brief; the builder then generates a designed site that you keep changing by chatting with the AI. Ecommerce and integrations are not built by the AI and are added afterwards, for example with WooCommerce.

Free plan
Free plan. The free WordPress.com plan has a wordpress.com subdomain, shows WordPress.com ads to visitors and includes 1 GB storage. The AI website builder itself is available on paid plans only; the Personal plan lists it with usage limits.
Paid plans from
Not clearly published
Code export
Partial code export. Every site can export posts, pages, comments, categories and tags as an XML file (media exported separately); theme design, customizations and plugins are not included. Business and Commerce plans can download a full site backup.
Hosting
Their hosting is optional. AI-built sites launch on WordPress.com managed hosting. Content can move to another WordPress site; a full backup download is limited to Business and Commerce plans.
AI agent access
Official MCP server. The WordPress.com MCP server lets ChatGPT, Cursor and other agents read and write posts, pages, media and settings, with full or read-only access per tool.

Good at

  • Free plan with no expiry for trying WordPress.com
  • AI-built sites stay standard WordPress sites with plugins on paid plans
  • Commerce plan runs WooCommerce stores

Watch out for

  • AI builder needs a paid plan; free sites show WordPress.com ads
  • The AI cannot build ecommerce or integrations; add them manually
  • Standard export covers content only; full backups need Business or Commerce

04Webflow AI site builder

Best for: designers who want visual control, a CMS and e-commerce on one platform

Websites with CMS, ecommerce and localization; Webflow Cloud also hosts web apps.

Turns a prompt into a site draft plus a starter design system built on Webflow's Flowkit CSS framework; you then add, remove or reorder sections and pages and restyle it in the Designer.

Free plan
Free plan. Starter site plan is free: webflow.io subdomain, 2 static pages, limited CMS, 1 GB bandwidth, 50 form submissions; removing the 'Made in Webflow' badge needs a paid site plan. The free Starter Workspace includes 200 AI credits.
Paid plans from
$15/month, billed yearly (Basic site plan)
Code export
Partial code export. Paid Workspace plans (from Core) export HTML, CSS, JavaScript and assets as a ZIP. CMS content, ecommerce, user accounts, password protection, form processing, site search, localized pages and code components do not work in the export; CMS, ecommerce and user data can be exported separately as CSV. Exported code cannot be re-imported.
Hosting
Their hosting is optional. Exported static pages can be hosted anywhere without attribution; CMS, ecommerce, memberships, forms and search need Webflow hosting.
AI agent access
Official MCP server. The Webflow MCP server lets agents build in the Designer, manage CMS, pages and assets, and publish sites, within the user's existing roles.

Good at

  • AI output is a real design system you keep editing visually
  • HTML/CSS/JS export on paid Workspace plans
  • Native CMS and ecommerce plans

Watch out for

  • Export drops CMS, ecommerce, forms and other dynamic features
  • Code export needs a paid Workspace plan on top of a site plan
  • Free sites stay on webflow.io with the Webflow badge

05Wix AI website builder

Best for: an all-in-one hosted site with a store, bookings and forms built in

Business websites, including online stores, service sites with scheduling and lead forms, blogs, events and portfolios.

Generates pages, layout and copy from a text prompt; you then edit by hand or with Aria, Wix's built-in AI agent, which can also add business features such as payments and automated workflows.

Free plan
Free plan. Free plan, no credit card. Sites get an assigned wixsite.com address and show Wix ads on every page; no custom domain and no online payments.
Paid plans from
Not clearly published
Code export
No code export. Wix's help center says a site must be hosted and run on Wix's servers; no code or site export is offered. Wix says the content you build belongs to you, and domains can be connected or transferred.
Hosting
Must host with them. Hosting is included and required; Wix says its SaaS architecture does not support external hosting.
AI agent access
Official MCP server. The Wix MCP lets Cursor and other MCP clients call Wix's site APIs and create, update and publish sites.

Good at

  • Prompt-to-site generation, then drag-and-drop or AI-agent editing
  • Built-in business tools: store, payments, scheduling, forms
  • Free plan that publishes on a Wix subdomain

Watch out for

  • No code export; the site cannot leave Wix hosting
  • Free plan shows Wix ads and uses a wixsite.com address
  • Custom domain and online payments need a paid plan

06Framer AI agent

Best for: designers who want a visual canvas, a CMS and hosting in one place

Marketing and professional websites with CMS, localization and analytics, designed on Framer's canvas and hosted by Framer.

An AI agent creates editable pages, sections, copy and visuals in your project, can create and fill CMS collections, build code components from a description, and review a site for contrast, typos, missing alt text and SEO gaps.

Free plan
Free plan. Free plan: Framer subdomain, 1 GB bandwidth, 500 AI credits to try agents (when the workspace has no subscription). The 'Made in Framer' badge is removed only by connecting a custom domain or upgrading. Framer calls the free plan ideal for non-commercial use.
Paid plans from
$10/month, billed yearly (Basic)
Code export
No code export. Framer's help center says it does not offer HTML export for self-hosting and has no way to export published sites as HTML files or static bundles.
Hosting
Must host with them. Sites are published on Framer's hosting; Framer says its performance features rely on its own infrastructure.
AI agent access
Official agent connection. Framer's External Agents connect Codex, Cursor and other coding agents through its agent CLI and Server API; agents edit the canvas and CMS, and publish after approval. Framer calls it beta.

Good at

  • AI output stays editable on a visual design canvas
  • Built-in CMS, localization add-on and analytics
  • Free plan to design and publish on a Framer subdomain

Watch out for

  • No code or HTML export; sites must stay on Framer hosting
  • Free sites carry the 'Made in Framer' badge and no custom domain
  • No built-in store on the pricing page; selling relies on Marketplace plugins (e.g. Shopify storefront plugins)

When Elementor is still the right choice

Switching isn't always worth it. Elementor is a good fit when what it does well is what you need: planning and building a WordPress site you can host where you like.

  • Free core plugin and free Site Planner for planning a site
  • Works with any WordPress host, not only Elementor Host
  • Paid plans add eCommerce features for WordPress stores

Built with FNJ's AI builder

Look at this beautiful site our AI builder built in 10 minutes

One prompt and a screenshot of a site we liked, recorded as it happened. The builder designed a portfolio, built every page on the canvas for desktop, tablet and phone, and handed over the code. The video skips the waiting.

Elementor also offers Angie, a separate agentic AI plugin for building pages and managing WordPress sites.
Can I export my Elementor site's code?
Yes. Site Planner can create a downloadable website kit (.zip) to import into any WordPress site running the Hello theme and the Elementor plugin (Pro recommended). The result is a WordPress/Elementor site, not standalone HTML.
Do I have to host my site with Elementor?

Can AI agents like ChatGPT or Cursor work on a Elementor site?
Yes, through Elementor's official MCP server. The Elementor MCP lets site admins connect Codex, Cursor and other MCP clients to build or redesign pages; everything is saved as a draft for you to review and publish. (Checked on Elementor's own documentation in October 2026.)
What's the best Elementor alternative if I want to own the code?
Pick a builder with a full code export. FNJ designs marketing sites and exports Next.js or static HTML you host anywhere; 10Web also export full projects. Check what stays behind on export, such as forms, stores and databases.
Is there a free alternative to Elementor?
