Slickplan vs Zeplin Flows

Slickplan is a collaborative website-planning suite for content and UX teams, delivered through the web with API access. Its tools include Sitemap Builder, Diagram Maker, Content Planner, and Design Mockups. The Sitemap Builder’s AI assistant can generate site maps, refine structure, and improve page labels in multiple languages. It can crawl an existing website and import URL, XML, or TXT files. CMS plugins transfer structures, content, navigation, and SEO elements to WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal. Listed integrations include Basecamp, Slack, Teamwork PM, and Google Analytics. The REST-style developer API uses SSL JSON requests and OAuth 2.0. Teams can collaborate in real time, use version history, and export PDF, image, or Slickplan XML files. The free version allows one sitemap and one user, with basic functionality, limited support, and web-link-only sharing. Paid plans start at $10.79 a month billed annually, and a 14-day trial is listed.

Zeplin Flows helps teams map user journeys and make design intent clearer across screens. Diagrams use labels, shapes, and connectors that reposition when screens are added or removed. Teams can group screens and flows into Flow Groups and Boards, then share them through quick links. Shapes can represent actions, decisions, and branches, helping product, QA, and Support teams identify gaps and add use cases. Flows are included across plans, while Flow Boards are available on Advanced and Enterprise. The Free plan is free and includes one project, 100 screens, unlimited members, and no Flow Boards. Advanced costs $12 a month, billed annually. Zeplin offers Mac and Windows desktop apps and a web app that works on Windows, macOS, and Linux; the web app does not support uploading designs. Listed integrations include Figma, Sketch, Jira, Storybook, VS Code, Azure DevOps, Slack, Microsoft Teams, an API, and webhooks. Developer inspect view, design tokens, asset handoff, code snippets, and version history are listed.
