Two Great Toolsets

Quince and Quince Pro are our UX and UI pattern library tools that simplify the design review process.

With the free, community-driven version of Quince, interaction designers and developers can collaborate, communicate and cultivate design libraries, while discovering ways to use the patterns to create better user experiences. As an interactive collaboration tool, Quince offers a dynamic community where you and your team can be inspired to create full-featured and great-looking UIs, while sharing ideas.

Quince Pro goes even further, to give you more control over your own projects. Great features - like My Corkboard and Secure Sharing – mean you can develop and maintain your own private libraries, and collaborate on UX projects with team members anywhere in the world. You’ll never need to update a Style Guide’s long, unwieldy Word document again. Quince Pro lets your team continuously refine, nurture and cultivate design libraries for user experiences that are always fresh.

Getting More with Quince Pro

• Collaborate on Amazing User Experiences. Quince Pro enables you to develop your ideas in front of your team with callouts, notes, and attachments. You can post patterns describing best practices and share examples of compelling user experiences, then sit back to watch your UX style guide grow and evolve.


• Communicate Easily and Effectively. Quince Pro tracks the design conversation through comments and feedback tied directly to design collateral organized into multiple, private design libraries. Communicate design frameworks, styleguides, and pattern libraries to all levels of your team from designers to developers to executives.


• Cultivate Your Creativity in the Cloud. Quince Pro delivers benefits as a subscription-based service that’s hosted on Amazon Web Services for best-in-class security, reliability, availability, and scalability. You and your team members can access Quince Pro from anywhere on any device running the latest version of Microsoft Silverlight—VPN not required. There are no IT support costs, no troublesome installations, and backups of your data are kept for as long you maintain a subscription.
