Privacy-first canvas vs industry standard. Here's the full picture.
Adobe acquired Figma in 2022. Every design you create now lives on Adobe's servers. They can use it to train AI, change pricing anytime, or shut down features you depend on. This isn't speculation — it's their track record.

VoidAI Design: Your designs are stored on your device. When you collaborate, it's peer-to-peer with end-to-end encryption. We cannot see your work.
Figma: Everything lives on Adobe's servers. They have access to every design you create. Their terms allow them to use your content to train AI models.
Figma wins on features. Advanced prototyping, design systems, dev handoff, 1000+ plugins — Figma is the industry standard for a reason.
VoidAI Design covers the essentials: canvas, vectors, collaboration. It's for people who value privacy over advanced features.
VoidAI: Share a link, collaborate in real-time via P2P. No accounts needed. Works on local network without internet.
Figma: Powerful team features, commenting, version history, branching. Better for large teams.
If you're a design team at a company, need advanced prototyping, or depend on the Figma plugin ecosystem — stick with Figma. It's the most capable tool.
If you're an individual, a small team, or anyone who cares about not giving Adobe control over your work — VoidAI Design gives you freedom.
