"Typically recoverable" is the share of a Figma line that the audits we have run have been able to recover without changing provider — unused seats, the wrong tier, on-demand billing where annual was available. It is a starting expectation for a company your size, not a promise about your invoice.
what companies your size actually pay
We have read no Figma invoices so far, which is fewer than the five we require before publishing a range. Until then this page shows published list pricing only, above.
the levers that work
- mixing seat types (full/dev/collab/view) instead of putting everyone on a full seat cuts cost significantly, since only editors need full seats
- annual billing typically discounts vs monthly (Figma shows monthly rate by default; ask for annual quote)
- AI credits are pooled per seat (3,000/mo on Professional); heavy AI users should be on fewer, higher-tier seats rather than spreading seats thin
Across the audits we have run, roughly 20% of a small company's Figma line is recoverable without changing provider.

A published price is not a quote. In a full audit we email the alternative as a disclosed agent for your company and get a real price for your exact usage — which is the number your incumbent actually responds to.

Drop last quarter's invoices. We name every line you are overpaying, with an annualized amount, free. The full audit is $299 once: it gets a real quote from the alternative for your exact usage and runs the renegotiation with your incumbent until there is an answer. If it does not identify at least $2,990/yr, we refund it in full.
