Why Penpot is the best tool for modern Product teams
Penpot is the professional design platform where designers and developers share the same language for better collaboration.
Penpot’s self-host deployment gives teams the flexibility and security they need to work at scale.
No more disconnect between teams, tools and workflows
Design and code shouldn't feel like two different worlds.
Cloud privacy concerns?
Unclear ownership and exposed IP mean no control over where or how your data is stored.
Not in control. Locked-in by a tool?
Restricted designs, limited formats, and closed integrations, hold your team back.
Only designers in mind?
Without developer-friendly tools, collaboration breaks and design loses impact.
Cluttered UI platform?
Your design tool doesn't offer the complexity you need for your designs or it is too
complicated to use.
Open Source and open standards make Penpot the ideal tool to avoid most of the challenges teams and organizations encounter today.
The importance of Open Source and team collaboration
Self host for privacy and security
Multiple deployment options— restricted cloud, dedicated cloud, or self-hosted including air-gapped environments. Get full control and security over your design files.
Open standards mean flexibility
Penpot is built on open web standards (SVG, CSS, HTML, JSON) and a flexible open API, giving teams full control, tool compatibility, and ownership of their design workflows.
Complex projects at scale
Robust design tool built for teams with complex projects.
It’s the first to offer native Design Tokens for design systems, helping designers and developers speak the same language.

Dear designer friends: leave Figma, Adobe XD, invisionApp, etc. I introduce you the future: Penpot.
Open-source, free, you can self-host it so your own company has its own.
Only advantages. You can import templates, third-party tools, etc. Perfect.
