Replace Figma with self-hosted design tools. Compare Penpot and Excalidraw — no editor limits, full design freedom.
Figma limits free plans to 3 files and charges $12-$75/editor/month. Penpot is the most feature-complete open source alternative with real-time collaboration, prototyping, and design systems. It uses SVG as its native format.
Penpot covers most design and prototyping needs. It may lack some advanced Figma features like auto-layout or certain plugins, but it is actively closing the gap.
