About Optibase
Optibase is a native A/B testing tool built exclusively for Webflow, empowering users to create, manage, and analyze tests directly within the Webflow Designer. Designed to blend seamlessly with Webflow’s intuitive design environment, Optibase eliminates the need for heavy technical involvement, giving designers full control over optimizing their creations.
The challenge
Developing Optibase as a native Webflow app required tackling several complex challenges to ensure a smooth user experience and robust performance.
Key issues included:
- User-friendliness and intuitiveness: Ensuring the tool felt natural within Webflow’s minimalist aesthetic while offering powerful A/B testing capabilities.
- Handling high traffic volumes: Each A/B test generates millions of requests, necessitating advanced caching mechanisms to manage traffic efficiently.
- Database performance: Managing a database containing hundreds of millions of rows while ensuring real-time test results.
- Cost optimization: High traffic volumes initially led to elevated hosting costs, requiring strategic solutions to maintain sustainability.


The solution
Flowout’s team worked closely with Webflow’s app development framework to deliver a solution tailored to Webflow’s user base. By focusing on usability, scalability, and cost-efficiency, we developed Optibase as a native app that seamlessly integrates into the Webflow Designer.
Our approach included:
- Streamlined user interface: Designed a compact, user-friendly interface that aligns with Webflow’s design philosophy. Extensive iterations ensured an intuitive experience for non-technical users.
- Advanced caching mechanisms: Implemented cutting-edge caching solutions to handle high traffic volumes, ensuring the platform remains responsive and reliable.
- Optimized database architecture: Enhanced query execution with a streamlined database structure, enabling fast, real-time test results even under significant load.
- Cost-effective solutions: Introduced server-side processing and data management optimizations, significantly reducing operational costs while maintaining high performance.
