असली फ़र्क
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Penpot stands out with Open source and self-hostable and SVG-native design. Rive counters with State machine editor for interactive animations and Lightweight runtimes for iOS, Android, Web, and Flutter.
Penpot's Achilles heel: still catching up to figma on polish and plugin ecosystem — feels rough around the edges. Rive's: the state machine concept is powerful but intimidating — non-developers will hit a wall fast. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
अंतिम निष्कर्ष
If you value open source and self-hostable and open-source supporters जो self-hosted, go with Penpot. If app developers और motion matters more, Rive is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
