Agency Comparison

NorthLuma vs Webflow

Webflow charges per site, every month, forever. NorthLuma is one-time pay — $297 for one site on Pro Source, the only builder tier. The $997 Agency reseller license with 10 generations is not available yet; checkout will not take your money for it.

The $997 Agency bundle would add branding-removal rights, but it is not available yet — not counted above.

Webflow CMS plan = $23/mo as listed on webflow.com/pricing, May 2026. NorthLuma is one-time pay; hosting on Vercel/Netlify free tier. Pro Source ($297) is the only builder tier; Agency ($997) is not available yet.

Why Agencies Are Leaving Webflow

Webflow was built for freelancers. NorthLuma was built for agencies that scale.

$2,450/mo

Per-Site Pricing Kills Margins

Monthly cost for 50 sites on Webflow's Business plan. NorthLuma is $297 once per site on Pro Source, the only builder tier. The Agency licence ($997 once for 10 generations) is not available yet — checkout refuses it — so 50 sites means 50 × $297 = $14,850 paid once. Webflow's monthly bill passes that in month 7, and keeps going.

$150+/mo

No-Code = No Control

Webflow's visual editor is fast for simple sites but breaks down for complex logic. Need forms? APIs? Auth? You'll need Wized, Xano, Memberstack — each with its own monthly fee.

Yours

Client Sub-License

Webflow ties every site to your Workspace seat. Every NorthLuma site — Pro Source, the only builder tier — ships with its own customer-perpetual license, so your client owns the code forever, independent of NorthLuma. No Agency tier purchase is needed for that.

AI vs Manual

Webflow requires manual design for every page. NorthLuma generates complete sites from a single prompt and lets you customize from there.

$18-49/site/month, ongoing forever
10-Site First-Year Cost
$2,970 — 10 × $297 Pro Source — plus $0 hosting (Vercel/Netlify free). Inside Webflow's first-year range; the difference is that nothing recurs. The $997 Agency bundle is not available yet, so it is not part of this number.
$2,160-5,880/yr on Webflow hosting
10-Site 5-Year Cost
$2,970 (still — one-time, nothing recurs). The $997 Agency bundle is not available yet.
