The Mac-first design tool that started the modern UI revolution — rebuilt for teams and AI.
Sketch defined vector UI design on the Mac. After years of playing catch-up, it returned with a cloud workspace, real-time collaboration, and Sketch Assistants plus new AI features for generating and editing layers. It remains the favourite of designers who want a fast, native Mac app.
Who it's for: Mac-based product designers and small studios who value speed, polish, and a native app over browser-only workflows.
Sketch AI creates vector shapes, fills, and layouts from text, and cleans up handoff without breaking your components.
Shared libraries, real-time editing, and web viewing bring Sketch into team workflows.
Mature symbol and style system that keeps large design systems consistent.
Developers get clean specs, code snippets, and exports without a separate tool.
Sketch is the comeback kid of 2026: a genuinely fast, AI-assisted Mac design tool with real collaboration. It will not dethrone Figma for large cross-platform teams, but for Mac designers who want craft and speed, it is the best it has ever been.
