Finch vs Webflow.

How Finch compares with Webflow, the hosted visual site builder tool: what reviewers can do, what happens to their feedback, and which to choose.

The short answer

Webflow is a visual site builder: you design, host and edit the site inside Webflow, and clients can comment or edit content there. Finch works the other way round: the site is your own code, and edits made on the live page become commits in your repository.
