Elementor, the Israeli website-building platform, announced layoffs of approximately 100 employees on Monday — 30% of its workforce, according to N12. The company has not elaborated on the reasons, but the move follows a broader trend of Israeli tech firms restructuring amid AI-driven shifts.
Elementor, based in Tel Aviv and best known for its WordPress website-building plugin, announced the layoffs on Monday in an internal memo, N12 reports. The job cuts affect roughly 100 employees, reducing headcount from about 330 to 230.
The downsizing is the latest in a series of restructuring moves by Israeli tech companies adapting to AI-driven shifts in their markets. Last week, The Zioneer reported that Israeli creative-tech firm Artlist laid off about 40% of its workforce (roughly 200 employees), also citing a shift to an AI business model.
Elementor has not publicly detailed the rationale for the layoffs beyond the announcement. The company was valued at several billion dollars after its 2021 funding rounds.
