Figma and Framer share a canvas, a vector toolset and an audience of designers, which is why they end up in the same search. They diverge at the end of the workflow: Figma produces files that engineers and PMs work from, while Framer produces live websites that publish to a domain.
TL;DR
Figma is where interfaces are designed: a free Starter plan with unlimited drafts, Professional at $16 per full seat per month alongside $12 dev and $3 collab seats, Organization at $55 and Enterprise at $90, both billed annually. Framer is where sites are published: Free with 500 AI credits, Basic at $10 per month, Pro at $30 per month on yearly billing, extra editors at $20 each and Enterprise by quote. Design the product in Figma, ship the marketing site in Framer, and only pick one if your work stops at one of those points.
Figma's pricing page lists prices in USD with a monthly and annual toggle, and prices by seat role. The free Starter plan gives unlimited drafts, UI kits and templates, and 150 AI credits per day up to 500 per month. Professional lists a full seat at $16 per month with 3,000 AI credits per month, a dev seat at $12 with 500 credits and a collab seat at $3 with 500 credits, and adds unlimited files and projects, team-wide design libraries, and advanced Dev Mode inspection with an MCP server. Organization is billed annually at $55 per full seat per month with 3,500 credits, $25 for a dev seat and $5 for a collab seat, and adds publishing of resources across teams, centralised admin tools and basic security. Enterprise is billed annually at $90 per full seat per month with 4,250 credits, $35 for dev and $5 for collab seats, and adds custom workspaces and governance controls.
Framer's pricing page sells websites by the site. The free plan gives 500 AI credits to try the agents, a free Framer domain, 1GB of bandwidth and design pages. Basic at $10 per month on yearly billing covers personal sites with a free custom domain on the annual plan, two CMS collections and 50GB of bandwidth. Pro at $30 per month covers growing sites with 10 CMS collections and 100GB of bandwidth. Enterprise is quoted with custom limits, enterprise security and dedicated support. Editors cost $20 per month each on paid plans while viewers are free, and every paid plan carries monthly credits that power agents, localisation and other AI features. Framer also sells add-ons such as localisation per locale and event-based conversion tooling, which are billed on top of the plan.

Pick Figma if
Figma remains the standard for product design: libraries, prototypes, comments and a Dev Mode that engineering reads from, at a price that scales by role rather than by headcount. If the deliverable is a screen someone else builds, this is the tool, and the $3 collab seat keeps stakeholders cheap to include.
Pick Framer if
Framer's value is that design, CMS, hosting and publishing live in one place, so a marketing site does not need a developer or a separate hosting bill. At $10 and $30 per month on yearly billing it is cheaper than a Figma seat plus hosting, provided the site stays within its bandwidth and CMS limits and the team is small enough that $20 per editor does not sting.

No. Framer has design tools aimed at publishing pages, but it does not offer shared component libraries, design systems or developer inspection. Teams use it for marketing sites and keep product work in Figma.
Not as a hosted site. Figma produces files and prototypes; getting a site online requires a builder, a developer, or a tool such as Framer that takes the design to a domain.
Framer's Basic plan at $10 per month on yearly billing is cheaper than a single Figma full seat at $16. Figma's dev and collab seats at $12 and $3 narrow the gap for mixed teams, and Framer charges $20 for each additional editor.
Yes. Figma's Starter plan includes unlimited drafts and 500 AI credits per month; Framer's free plan includes 500 AI credits, a free Framer domain and 1GB of bandwidth.
Figma allocates 150 credits a day up to 500 a month on the free plan, 3,000 on a Professional full seat and up to 4,250 on Enterprise. Framer gives 500 to try the free plan and includes monthly credits in each paid plan for agents and localisation.
Figma, if several people must edit: collab seats cost $3 to $5 per month. Framer charges $20 per editor per month, so a five-editor site costs more than five Figma collab seats, though viewers remain free on both.
