Squarespace vs Webflow: what the data says
When buyers ask AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini to recommend website builder, Squarespace is recommended more often than Webflow — scoring 65/100 for AI visibility versus 4/100. Squarespace shows up in 70% of AI answers to real buyer questions; Webflow shows up in 10%.
The gap is widest on ChatGPT, where Squarespace is clearly favoured: Squarespace is recommended 80% of the time and Webflow 20%. Because each engine draws on different sources, a brand can lead on one and trail on another — which is why it pays to track all three rather than assume one result holds everywhere.
In practice, an AI assistant asked “What are the best website builders for small businesses?” is far likely to put Squarespace on its shortlist. Webflow is largely invisible in AI answers for website builder — and since these shortlists are increasingly where buying decisions start, that's a gap worth closing.
