March Update: Bento
Framer releases a March update with smoother Stack sorting, freeform item moves, faster image dragging, Bento Grid layouts, and improved layout tools. It also fixes multiple Grid, Stack, Canvas, preview, and UI issues.
The March Update brings a range of layout tool improvements and fixes. Sorting layers and images in Stacks feels much smoother, and you can now move items freely between Stacks. When you do, the original layout no longer collapses and instead displays a fixed placeholder. Moving images within any Stack or Grid is also noticeably faster. Grid tools have seen several updates as well and now include support for Bento layouts. Check out the video to learn more.

Auto Translate
Framer introduces Auto Translate for Localization, keeping Canvas and CMS content synced across locales with new AI controls. It also adds Translate All in the Localization view and lets teams translate specific layers or pages directly from the Canvas.
Introducing Auto Translate, our newest addition to Localization. This feature keeps your content in sync across all locales automatically, both when you add content in the Canvas and in the CMS. You can find it in locale settings where you’ll also find new AI controls. From there, choose a model or leave the Auto option selected. In this post you can read more about how the latest AI models performed in our translation benchmarks. Once you picked your preference, and the Auto Translate option is enabled, any new or updated content on the Canvas gets immediately translated across all enabled languages, and the same applies to CMS content like blog posts. This way, you can continue editing and publishing without worrying about missing translations. For teams that prefer more control, the Localization view now includes a Translate All action that updates all the locales of the project at once, or lets you manually pick only a subset of them. Additionally, you can now also translate specific layers directly from the Canvas by right clicking a layer and picking Translate Content, or you can do the same for specific pages in the panel. This update aims to save you countless of hours in translations without compromising on quality.

Static Files
Framer launches Static Files, a new way to serve files from your Framer domain at any path you choose. It adds centralized file management for verification flows, manifests, and other assets, plus safeguards for size, format, and path validation.
Today we're launching Static Files, a new way to serve files from your Framer domain at any path you choose.
Upload files for verification flows, manifests, and other assets, then add, edit, and organize them in one place, alongside the rest of the Advanced Hosting settings.
Files support a full lifecycle (create, update path, replace file, delete), with built-in safeguards like size limits, supported format checks, and path validation to help prevent conflicts.
If you were previously using redirect workarounds to point root paths to /.well-known/…, with static files, those will no longer be necessary.
Static Files is included in the Pro and the Scale Plan.
