Optimize Your Figma Design Budget
Unused editor licenses, duplicate team subscriptions, and over-purchased organization plans are draining your design budget. Most companies have 20-30% more licenses than active designers.
Common Figma Cost Issues
Unused Editor Licenses
Companies purchase Figma editor licenses for all potential designers, but many licenses sit unused as team members only need viewer access or rarely use the tool.
Duplicate Team Subscriptions
Different design teams purchase separate Figma subscriptions, leading to duplicate licensing, fragmented workspaces, and 30-40% higher total costs than a unified organization plan.
Organization Plan Over-Purchasing
Companies purchase Organization tier for all editors when many only need Professional features, adding $33/editor/month unnecessarily.
Inactive Designer Accounts
Former designers and contractors retain Figma editor access long after leaving, consuming licenses and team quotas.

Editor License Optimization
OptyStack identifies inactive editors, viewer-only users, and duplicate accounts to reclaim 20-30% of Figma licenses.
Average savings: $8,000-15,000/year for 50-editor teams
Team Consolidation
OptyStack discovers duplicate Figma subscriptions across teams and recommends consolidation into a single organization plan, reducing per-editor costs by 15-25%.
Typical consolidation saves 25-35% on total Figma spend
Tier Right-Sizing
OptyStack analyzes feature usage to recommend optimal tier assignments, downgrading editors who don't need Organization features.
Tier optimization saves 30-40% on over-provisioned editors
Shadow Design Tool Discovery
OptyStack identifies unauthorized Figma deployments and competing design tools, helping consolidate design spend and eliminate redundant subscriptions.
Average company has 2-3 duplicate design tool subscriptions
The Figma License Sprawl
Most organizations over-provision Figma editor licenses by 20-30% due to "just in case" designer provisioning, delayed account cleanup, and lack of visibility into actual editor usage. Each unused license costs $12-45/month depending on tier, quickly adding up to significant wasted spend.
Average company wastes $10,000-20,000/year on unused Figma editor licenses
