Figma
A cloud‑based collaborative design tool with real‑time co‑editing and prototyping.
Overview
Figma is a popular online design and prototyping tool known for its real‑time collaboration and cloud‑based workflow. Designers, product managers, developers, and other stakeholders can all work in the same file, reducing the overhead of exporting files and passing versions back and forth.
Figma supports both interface design and interactive prototyping, so you can quickly build clickable flows and animations. Non‑technical stakeholders can review prototypes directly in their browser and leave comments.
yrzhi can help organizations plan Figma editor seats, viewer roles, and permission strategies based on team size, and advise on project and data access policies to prevent sensitive designs from being unintentionally shared.
