La verdadera diferencia
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Marvel stands out with Rapid prototyping and User testing built-in. Penpot counters with Open source and self-hostable and SVG-native design.
Marvel's Achilles heel: not a full design tool — you still need figma or sketch for actual visual design work. Penpot's: still catching up to figma on polish and plugin ecosystem — feels rough around the edges. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
