Prototyping flows
Design projects usually need to define multiple casuistics for different devices and user journeys. Flows allow you to define one or multiple starting points within the same page so you can better organize and present your prototypes.

Design systems at scale
Work with a single source of truth for your designs. Speed your workflow with truly structured components, variants and design tokens that AI agents can read easily.
Design tokens
Use built-in design tokens as a single source of truth to improve efficiency and collaboration between product design and development.

Libraries
Store elements and styles so that they can be easily reused. Libraries may include components, graphics, colors and typographies. Libraries can be shared among teams.
Components
Speed up your workflow and keep consistency on your designs with components that can be reused multiple times across the files of a team.
Variants
Manage every state, size, and style of a component from one place. Switch between variants without losing your overrides.

Design, code and AI workflows
Features that allow designers, developers and stakeholders to have a deeper collaboration.
Code Inspector
Use built-in design tokens as a single source of truth to improve efficiency and collaboration between product design and development.
MCP Server
Connect any AI agent or LLM to Penpot — an agnostic MCP server built on our open plugin API for high-quality, structured, multi-directional AI workflows.
Properties inspector
An info panel where specifications about style and content of an object can be found and easily copied. Different types of objects can have different sets of properties.
Distances and measurements
Easily get measurements and distances between objects.
Team collaboration
Unite design and development in one workflow. Level up your multiplayer experience with real-time seamless collaboration.
Multiplayer
Multiple members can work simultaneously in real-time over the same design.
Comments
Get and provide feedback right over the designs and prototypes.
Teams
