Relume Export vs. Relume Publish

This is a planning outline, not a final draft. Bracketed items are placeholders — confirm or replace before this becomes a real doc. Sections marked 🔲 need more info  before they can be written at all.

Title

• 🔲 Title TBD 
  • "Choosing Between Relume 1.0 and Relume Publish"
  • "Relume 1.0 and Relume Publish: What's the Difference?"

By the end of this doc, you'll be able to:

• Understand the difference between Relume 1.0 and Relume Publish
• Identify which product fits your workflow and experience level
• Understand what each product covers, from design through to hosting
• Know where to go next to start using either product

Overview (2–3 sentences)

Draft direction: Relume now offers two separate products. Relume 1.0 helps you generate sitemaps and wireframes to export into Webflow or Figma. Relume Publish takes things further — you design, publish, and host your entire site in one place, without exporting anywhere.

Key open question: what's the one most important benefit to lead with for Publish? 

• "No more exporting — design and launch in one tool"
• "Everything in one place: design, publish, hosting"
   🔲

Both Products, at a Glance

Short framing before the detailed comparison — both are actively maintained, Relume 1.0 is not being deprecated, they serve different  needs.

• Relume 1.0 — sitemaps + wireframes → export to Webflow or Figma
• Relume Publish — sitemaps + wireframes + visual design + publish + hosting, all inside Relume

🔲 Confirm: can projects move between the two, or are they fully independent products/accounts?

Who Each One Is For

Since the overall Relume audience spans everyone (1.0 veterans, new users, experienced designers, and non-technical beginners), this section is where we actually help people self-select.

Open with a bridging line before the criteria: Relume 1.0 and Publish exist for different workflows, not as an old-vs-new upgrade — pick based on how you want to work, not which one is "newer." 🔲 (tighten wording once Publish's positioning is confirmed)

Relume 1.0 is a good fit if you:

• Already work in Webflow or Figma and want to speed up the planning/wireframing stage
• Want full control over final visual design and development in a tool you already know
• [Additional criteria] 🔲

Relume Publish is a good fit if you:

• Want to go from idea to live website without leaving Relume
• Don't need (or want) a separate hosting/dev step
• [Additional criteria]

💡 Consider a simple decision callout here once criteria are confirmed — e.g. "If you need X, use 1.0. If you need Y, use Publish."

Feature Comparison

🔲 Needs your input to fill in — draft structure below, adapt as a table in the final doc:

Frequently Asked Questions

• "Is Relume Publish replacing Relume 1.0?" → No — both are actively maintained; they serve different workflows
• "Can I switch a project from Relume 1.0 to Relume Publish (or vice versa)?" 🔲 (need real answer — same open question as "Both Products, at a Glance"; resolve once and cross-reference rather than answering twice)
• "Do I still need Webflow or Figma if I use Relume Publish?" → No — confirm this is accurate
• "Which one should I start with if I've never used either?" 🔲

⚠️ What I Still Need From You

1. Concrete differences to fill in the Feature Comparison table (design tools, domains, pricing, etc.)
2. Specific "who it's for" criteria beyond the general framing above, including negative-fit criteria for each product
3. Whether/how Relume 1.0 and Publish accounts or projects relate (resolves both the "at a glance" open question and the FAQ switching question in one place)
4. The single most important benefit to lead with for Publish
5. Confirmation on doc scope: standalone comparison doc vs. part of a larger hub page
6. Whether this doc's publish timing is gated on Relume Publish's actual launch, or intended to go out ahead of it
