Abstract brings version control to design. When multiple designers work on the same Sketch files, Abstract prevents the chaos of overwritten changes and "final_v3_FINAL.sketch" naming.
Like Git for code, you branch to try ideas, then merge when they're ready. Every change is tracked with comments explaining why decisions were made. Rolling back mistakes takes one click.
Design teams finally get the workflow developers have used for years. No more lost work, no more wondering who changed what.
Abstract offers a free trial. Paid plans start at $15/user/month for version control and collaboration features.
Abstract is version control for design files. It provides Git-like branching, merging, and history for Sketch and XD files.
No, Abstract doesn't support Figma because Figma has built-in version history. Abstract works with Sketch and Adobe XD.
Abstract was acquired by Adobe in 2021. It continues operating but development has slowed as Figma's native versioning made it less necessary.
Abstract brings Git concepts (branches, commits, merges) to design. Designers don't need to know Git; Abstract provides a visual interface.
Figma's native versioning is simpler. Abstract offers more Git-like workflows with branches and merge reviews. For Sketch users, Abstract remains valuable.
Design teams using Sketch who need formal version control and review workflows. Less relevant as teams move to Figma with native versioning.
