Design Project focuses heavily on UI/UX and product design. DesignPal covers product UI plus the full range of marketing, brand, ad creative, decks, and print, all in one subscription starting at $1,495/mo against Design Project entry pricing around $3,595/mo.

Does DesignPal handle UI and UX design too?

Yes. DesignPal designs product UI, dashboards, user flows, and prototypes alongside marketing and brand work. You get interface design and go-to-market design from one team, so you do not need a separate subscription for product versus marketing.
