Jelle and Yar (live from Dubai) break down Webflow's new Analyze and Optimize add-ons.
Analyze gives you heatmaps, scroll depth, clicks, and location data directly in the Webflow dashboard - no Hotjar or Clarity needed.
Optimize lets you run real A/B tests and Al-powered variations inside the canvas, with dynamic traffic allocation and third-party integrations (HubSpot, Salesforce, GA4).

Bottom line: less tooling, faster decisions, measurable lift.

If you're running a B2B SaaS site on Webflow and still duct-taping analytics together, this changes everything.
