How Pastel increased signups with Optibase

Increase in homepage signups

Adding a demo video led to a meaningful lift in new user signups.

Clarity on what actually works

A/B tests helped the team validate homepage changes with real data.

Fast, Webflow-native testing

Set up their first experiment in under an hour with Optibase.

The Challenge

Pastel helps creators and professionals build beautiful websites without code, offering an all-in-one platform for fast site creation. As the company grew, CEO Valentin Staykov wanted to increase signups and better understand which website changes actually moved metrics.

But running A/B tests inside Webflow was too time-consuming.

“We did not run A/B tests because it was a lot of work to set up.”

Without a simple, native testing tool, the team couldn’t validate whether new changes, design updates, or UI tweaks were driving signups — or hurting them. They needed a fast, low-effort way to test ideas directly on their Webflow site.

The Solution

Pastel chose Optibase for its seamless Webflow integration and easy onboarding. The team launched their first A/B test in under an hour.

“Your videos showing how to set up an A/B test were easy to follow.”

Their first experiment tested adding a demo video on the homepage to see whether the added clarity and visual context would improve conversions.

The Results

Pastel saw immediate impact from their first test:

  • Meaningful increase in signups after adding the homepage video
  • Clear visibility into which design choices actually influence conversions
  • Faster experimentation and decision-making directly inside Webflow

Running A/B tests gave them confidence they never had before.

“Seeing concrete data about whether a change to your website is having a positive impact is great.”

Even without specific percentages attributed solely to Optibase, the team saw lift and — more importantly — finally had proof behind what was working.

Why Optibase

Maddox needed a solution tailored for Webflow, one that didn’t require complex integrations or external landing-page tools. Optibase provided exactly that: a native Webflow A/B testing platform that allows marketing teams to run experiments autonomously, and quickly.

“It was the first choice for an A/B test tool on Webflow and has been a great fit for our testing needs so far.”

In short: Optibase unlocked the ability to test directly on their live site, make fast decisions, and optimise conversions without the usual internal overhead.
