A diferença real
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Adobe XD stands out with Prototyping and wireframing and Repeat grid. Rive counters with State machine editor for interactive animations and Lightweight runtimes for iOS, Android, Web, and Flutter.
Adobe XD's Achilles heel: adobe effectively abandoned it — no major updates since 2023, figma won the market. Rive's: the state machine concept is powerful but intimidating — non-developers will hit a wall fast. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Conclusão
If you value prototyping and wireframing and times que já pagam, go with Adobe XD. If desenvolvedores de apps e matters more, Rive is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
