Features of TemplateCat

Massive, Curated Template Library

TemplateCat aggregates thousands of premium templates exclusively from platforms known for professional design standards, like Framer, Webflow, and Squarespace. We do the vetting for you, ensuring every template meets a high bar for quality and modern aesthetics. With plans to expand to Figma Sites and Readymag, the library is growing towards 10,000+ options, making it the most comprehensive cross-platform resource available. You get the combined creative firepower of multiple ecosystems in one search.

Intelligent Filtering by Categories, Styles & Features

Go beyond basic searches. Drill down to exactly what you need with a powerful filtering system. Browse by 200+ business and niche categories (like "Dentist" or "Music Festival"), 27 visual styles (like "Minimalist" or "Brutalist"), and 38 functional features (like "Blog" or "E-commerce"). This granular control allows you to find templates that are not just beautiful but are also perfectly suited for your project's specific content and functional requirements.

Live On-Page Preview & Device Testing

See a template in action before you commit. Every listing on TemplateCat includes an embedded, live preview. Even better, you can instantly switch between desktop, tablet, and mobile views to test responsiveness and user experience on different devices. This feature eliminates guesswork, ensuring the template you love on a big screen also delivers a flawless experience on a smartphone.

Transparent Platform Pricing Comparison

TemplateCat displays the associated costs right on the template card, showing you the price range (e.g., $0.00 to $192+) for using that template on its native platform. This allows for easy, at-a-glance cost comparison between builders, helping you budget accurately for your project and avoid unexpected platform subscription fees after you've fallen in love with a design.

Use Cases of TemplateCat

Freelance Web Designers & Agencies

Freelancers and agencies handling multiple client projects can use TemplateCat as their secret weapon to drastically cut down discovery time. Instead of maintaining accounts and searching across 5+ different website builders, they use one tool to present 3-5 perfect, vetted options to a client in minutes. This professionalism speeds up the approval process and allows them to take on more projects.

Entrepreneurs & Small Business Owners

Non-technical founders launching their own website can bypass the overwhelm of starting from scratch. They can use TemplateCat's intuitive categories to find a template tailored to their industry (e.g., "Restaurant," "Consulting"). Seeing live previews and clear pricing helps them choose a design and platform that fits their vision and budget without needing a designer.

UI/UX Designers Seeking Inspiration

Even designers building custom sites need inspiration. TemplateCat serves as a rich gallery of the latest trends and best practices from top platforms. Designers can filter by style ("Dark Mode," "3D Elements") to study current design patterns, color schemes, and layout innovations, sparking ideas for their own original work.

Marketing Teams Building Campaign Pages

Marketing teams needing to spin up high-converting landing pages for product launches or events can use TemplateCat to find templates built for performance. Filtering by features like "Lead Capture" or "Countdown Timer," they can quickly find and deploy a professionally designed page that's optimized for conversions, saving precious time in fast-paced campaigns.
