What is Relume?
Relume stops handing sites off and starts hosting them itself
Relume built its position on generating sitemaps, wireframes and a 1000+ component library that other tools consumed — Figma, Webflow, and since July an MCP server that AI editors query directly. Publish, now in Beta, is the first time Relume takes a project all the way live and keeps it editable after launch. The component library and design-system export continue in parallel, so the two strategies now run side by side.
What is Webflow?
Webflow puts its MCP inside Microsoft Copilot, a third AI assistant in a month.
Webflow's October run had two tracks: Webflow Campaigns launched as a standalone product, and MCP gained analytics data, a Gemini connector and live agent presence on the canvas. Designer work continued in November with faster component copying and native modals and popovers. On November 12 the Webflow MCP became available in Microsoft Copilot, with built-in Skills for building pages, managing content and checking site performance.

Relume stops handing sites off and starts hosting them itself
◆ Current state
Relume built its position on generating sitemaps, wireframes and a 1000+ component library that other tools consumed — Figma, Webflow, and since July an MCP server that AI editors query directly. Publish, now in Beta, is the first time Relume takes a project all the way live and keeps it editable after launch. The component library and design-system export continue in parallel, so the two strategies now run side by side.
◆ Where it's heading
For a year Relume's answer to 'where does the site actually go' was somebody else's product. Publish reverses that, and it lands right after the MCP release made Relume an ingredient inside AI editors — the company is now simultaneously selling itself as a component supply chain and as a destination. The monthly component-and-canvas releases that filled 2025 have thinned out; the releases that ship now are structural.
◆ Prediction
Expect the Beta to fill in the parts a live site needs before it can replace a host — custom domains, CMS-backed content, form handling — and watch whether Publish or the MCP library gets the next release cycle, since the two pull in opposite directions.
Webflow
5.0DESIGN
Webflow puts its MCP inside Microsoft Copilot, a third AI assistant in a month.
◆ Current state
Webflow's October run had two tracks: Webflow Campaigns launched as a standalone product, and MCP gained analytics data, a Gemini connector and live agent presence on the canvas. Designer work continued in November with faster component copying and native modals and popovers. On November 12 the Webflow MCP became available in Microsoft Copilot, with built-in Skills for building pages, managing content and checking site performance.
◆ Where it's heading
Webflow is making its site the place outside AI assistants work on, rather than building one assistant of its own: Gemini in October, Copilot now, with analytics and agent presence feeding the same MCP. Core Designer features keep shipping alongside it.
◆ Prediction
Expect more assistant connectors and more Skills on the MCP; the entries do not show which assistant is next.
