Our take


Figma is the industry standard for collaborative design, and its AI tools make it more useful than ever for marketing and product teams. The Professional plan is strong value for small teams. The trade-offs are a seat system that makes budgeting tricky, a big jump to Organization pricing, and AI credits that heavy Figma Make users can burn through quickly.
