About Zeplin
What is Zeplin and what problem does it solve?
Zeplin is a dedicated design delivery platform that bridges the gap between design and development. Unlike design tools built for freeform creation, Zeplin provides a structured space where finalized designs are organized, documented, and versioned — so developers get clear specs without digging through messy design files. It solves the chaos of handoff, reducing confusion and rework.
Who is Zeplin for?
Zeplin is built for product teams — designers, developers, and product managers — at startups, agencies, and Fortune 500 companies. It is ideal for teams that frequently hand off designs and need clarity, version control, and structured feedback. It is not meant for real-time collaborative designing or prototyping; those tasks belong in design tools like Figma or Sketch.
Real use cases
Designers use Zeplin to publish final screen designs with specs and assets, developers access code-connected components and inspect measurements, and product managers map user flows with Flow Boards. Teams track design changes deliberately (inspired by Git versioning), gather feedback via approvals, and connect their design system to real product work — all without leaving the delivery workflow.
Key features
- Structured Design Delivery — Publish finalized designs from any design tool into organized projects, separating ready-for-dev work from in-progress drafts.
- Design Versioning — Track and compare changes with a Git-inspired version history for every screen.
- Flow Boards — Map end-to-end user journeys with connectors, labels, and shapes to communicate complete flows.
- Annotations & Requirements — Add notes and specs directly on designs so developers understand behavior, not just visuals.
- Approvals & Feedback — Request reviews, track decisions, and keep discussions organized without cluttered comment threads.
- Code-Connected Components — Link design system components to real code, with styleguides and snippets that match your stack.
- Integrations — Connect with Jira, Azure, Slack, Teams, Storybook, and VS Code for smooth workflows.
