  1. 1

    Canva remains the default design tool for people who are not designers, but its AI is now rationed and heavy use has become a real line item.

    Best for: Small marketing teams, educators and solo operators who need lots of on-brand visuals without design training.

    Price: Free (up to 20 AI uses/month); Pro US$144/year or US$18/month for one person; Business US$250/person/year or US$25/month, no seat minimum; Enterprise custom; AI Pass add-on US$100/person/month.

  2. 2

    Figma has no real rival for product design, and Make is a capable prototyping layer on top, but capped credits and a closed-beta codebase link keep it short of a real app builder.

    Best for: Product designers, UX teams and developers who design and prototype apps and websites together.

    Price: Free Starter (500 AI credits/month); Professional $16/month per Full seat ($12 Dev, $3 Collab); Organization $55; Enterprise $90 (both billed annually). Only Full seats include Make, Sites and Draw.

    Price: Free (1-5 seats, 100 one-time AI credits); Plus €10, Team €15, Business €20 per seat/month on annual billing; monthly prices not shown; Enterprise custom.
