Affinity Designer (the vector studio within the unified Affinity Studio app) is now completely free following Canva's acquisition of Serif: full vector, pixel and layout studios in one app, no subscription, no per-seat fee, no feature or export limits.
Completely free, the old one-time license was retired and folded into a single free app (launched October 30, 2025). Optional: Canva AI features cost $12/user/month (annual) on a separate Canva Pro plan.
Designers who want professional-grade vector tools without any subscription cost, especially those who previously balked at Adobe's recurring pricing.
Affinity Designer, Photo and Publisher are no longer three separate purchases: they're all included free in the single unified Affinity Studio app, so there's no need to buy them individually anymore.
Award-winning vector graphics software setting industry standards.
