The base layer. Still the canvas where 95% of product design happens.
The Designer's SaaS Stack
The tools modern product designers actually have open all day.
Designing in 2026 isn't just Figma anymore. AI helpers, motion tools, 3D, and component libraries have changed what 'on the canvas' means. Here's the stack we see in real designers' Dock.
The site builder. Designer-friendly websites with motion built-in — replaces 'handoff to dev' for marketing pages.
The 3D tool. Hero scenes and product visualizations without learning Blender.
The motion tool. Interactive animations that respond to state — runs natively on web, mobile, Flutter.
The animation library. Discover, customize, and ship Lottie animations to any product surface.
The thinking tool. Flowcharts, wireframes, and mind maps for the strategy phase before Figma.
The Figma AI plugin. Generate icons, copy, and illustrations directly on your canvas.
The Webflow accelerator. AI-generated sitemaps and component libraries — massive time-saver for marketing sites.
