Zeplin
Design delivery platform that turns finished designs into developer-ready specs.
What is Zeplin?
Zeplin is a design delivery and handoff platform that gives designers a dedicated workspace to finalize, document, and organize designs before they go to developers. It pulls in designs from Figma, Sketch, or Adobe XD and adds annotations, version history, style guides, and AI-assisted design review to catch spacing and accessibility issues before handoff.
