So is it like a WebFlow competitor ?

I would love a website builder that has Drag Drop CMS capability for non technical users (kinda like page builders in WordPress) but allows clean static HTML export finally (kinda like static site generators). The problem is we either have the WordPress or static site gens.

You could say Webflow is a direct competitor, yes. The way we see it, though, Webflow is a tad too complex for non-technical users and you end up just shifting the bottleneck from developers to the "Webflow expert". Heck, they have a whole Webflow University for learning how to use the product.

We believe there is an opportunity to build a website builder that is much more flexible than the usual template-driven ones, but not as complicated as Webflow. I would say Makeswift is to Figma like Webflow is to Photoshop.
