Fingers crossed this deal goes through - and I am pretty confident it will.
I am building a design tool and I think my chances at success increase with Figma decaying at Adobe.
- andruby 3y agoI was wondering where you were going after that first sentence :) Good luck! I'll be happy to see some competition. I don't see a link in your profile.
- aurareturn 3y agoPersonally, I think Adobe will do a pretty good job of supporting Figma. But the disruption to Figma/Adobe likely won't come from another traditional design tool. It'd have to come from a tool that does generative AI first, and maybe some tools to edit. Just a wild guess but in 1-2 years, maybe someone can generate a whole app design from style guide to actual screen/interaction designs. That'd be a true competitor to Figma/Adobe. I just can't see a competitor rising from nothing to compete with Figma/Adobe without being AI-first in 2023. Even Adobe is adding generative AI features into their products now.
- adfm 3y agoAdobe’s acquisition and Apple’s headset are bulkheads. As compelling as generative AI technologies are, WebGPU makes it chooch.
