6 Webflow Tools To Level Up Your Webflow Builds

Tool #1: Pastel - Simplify Client Feedback

Struggling with messy client feedback? Pastel is here to save the day. Instead of chasing comments across emails or Slack, Pastel lets your clients leave feedback directly on your live site.

Here’s how it works:

1. Enter your site’s URL in Pastel.
2. It creates an interactive version of your site.
3. Clients or teammates can click on any part of the site and leave comments.

For example, a client can click on an image and say, “Can we swap this for something more vibrant?” You’ll get all the feedback in one organized spot.

Why it’s awesome:

• Works for both desktop and mobile views.
• Saves time by cutting out endless back-and-forth.
• Makes you look super professional.

Cost: $19/month for freelancers. If you’re managing clients, this is a no-brainer.

Tool #2: Finsweet Chrome Extension - Unlock Hidden Webflow Features

Let’s talk about Finsweet Chrome Extension, aka the toolkit you didn’t know you needed.

This free extension fixes some of the annoying gaps in Webflow. Here are a few highlights:

• Delete breakpoints: Tired of accidentally adding breakpoints you can’t remove? Now you can delete them with a single click.
• Reorder color swatches: Drag and drop your colors into a clean, logical order. No more messy palettes.
• Bulk redirects: Set up multiple 301 redirects at once by uploading a CSV. Perfect for site migrations.

They’re constantly rolling out new features, like unbinding CMS items and more. Honestly, just download it—it’s free and makes life easier.

Tool #3: Flowbase Component Library

Need to save time? Flowbase has you covered with its library of pre-made Webflow components.

How it works:

1. Browse their library for what you need—headers, forms, signup sections, etc.
2. Click “Copy.”
3. Paste it into your Webflow project.

No more building from scratch or being stuck with restrictive templates. You just pick what you need and customize it.

Why it’s worth it:

• Saves hours of design time.
• Components are fully customizable.
• Only $39/month—totally worth it if you build multiple sites.

Tool #4: Wized - Bringing Backend Power to Webflow

Okay, let’s get a bit nerdy with Wized. This tool brings backend functionality to Webflow, which is huge.

• Connect to APIs (e.g., a weather app pulling live data).
• Use Airtable as a database for dynamic filtering.
• Integrate with Stripe for billing and subscriptions.

It’s a game-changer if you’re building dashboards or apps. While I haven’t personally used it yet, the demos blew me away. If you’ve ever wished Webflow could do more, Wiz is worth checking out.
