Key visual for whitepaper "Dead is Done A VML and Webflow" POV

The end of 'done'. The beginning of the 'Living Web'.

In this white paper, Webflow and VML explore a future where brands don't just build better websites. They create living experiences that evolve with culture, connect with people and make sense to machines. That future is already taking shape.

Human First. Machine Ready. Never Done.

People want brands that feel relevant, distinctive and worth their attention. But increasingly, machines are shaping which brands they discover, consider and choose, often before they even visit a website.

Done Is Dead. Long Live the Web. explores what it takes to succeed with both. Human creativity that makes brands unmistakable. Technology that makes them discoverable. And living digital experiences that continually adapt to the world around them.
