Is Figma Copyrighted?

Last updated on September 29, 2022 @ 1:02 am

Figma is a vector graphics editor and prototyping tool – the first interface design tool with real-time collaboration. It’s now available for Mac, Windows and Linux.

Figma has been created by Dylan Field and Evan Wallace, who also created the vector graphics editor Sketch. Figma is similar to Sketch in many ways, but it also has some key differences.

One of the key differences between Figma and Sketch is that Figma is web-based, while Sketch is a desktop application. This means that Figma can be used on any platform, including Windows, Mac and Linux. It also means that Figma files can be opened and edited in any web browser.

PRO TIP: Figma is a copyrighted work and may not be reproduced or distributed without the express written permission of the copyright holder.

Another difference between Figma and Sketch is that Figma supports real-time collaboration. This means that multiple people can work on the same file at the same time. Sketch does not currently support real-time collaboration.

Figma is also different from Sketch in terms of pricing. Figma is free to use for individuals, while Sketch costs $99 for a single user license. For teams, Figma costs $12 per month per user, while Sketch costs $99 per year per user.

So, is Figma copyrighted?

Yes, Figma is copyrighted. The copyright belongs to Dylan Field and Evan Wallace, the creators of Figma.

However, you can use Figma for free if you are an individual user. For teams, Figma costs $12 per month per user.
