Origami Studio

Origami Studio is a free prototyping tool from Meta for designing interactive interfaces and animations. It offers a patch-based editor where you connect blocks to define behavior, plus a visual canvas for laying out screens. The result is a prototype that can include real gestures, physics, and device sensors, running live on a phone or desktop.

How it works

It is used by product teams that need to test how an interface feels, not just how it looks. You can import designs from Sketch or Figma, add interactions with the patch editor, and share prototypes with colleagues for feedback.

Origami Studio is completely free, with no paid tiers. The learning curve is real, especially the patch editor, but for designers who want to prototype rich interactions without paying for a tool, it is unmatched.
