What platforms does Zeplin support?

We have confirmed browser-based access to Zeplin. That is the extent of what we could verify from public sources, so it may well offer desktop or mobile clients we have not indexed.

Source: https://zeplin.io/pricing/

Can Zeplin be self-hosted?

We have only confirmed a cloud / SaaS deployment for Zeplin, so it appears to be vendor-hosted. If a self-hosted option exists we have not found it documented publicly.

Source: https://zeplin.io/pricing/

What does Zeplin integrate with?

We have confirmed 10 integrations for Zeplin, including Jira, Azure DevOps, VS Code, Storybook, Slack, Teams, Figma and Zeplin API, plus 2 more. This is what we could verify from public sources, so the vendor may support others we have not indexed.

Source: https://zeplin.io/pricing/

What security certifications does Zeplin have?

We have independently confirmed GDPR for Zeplin. Certifications we do not list are ones we have not been able to verify from public sources, which is not the same as Zeplin not holding them. Always confirm compliance directly before you rely on it.

The vioscaleAI score: one lens on the evidence

Not user reviews and not a paid placement: a confidence-weighted blend of the independent signals below (adoption, activity, security posture, and more), which you can sort and re-weight yourself. Vendors can correct their listing but can never move their rank, and stars are weighted low as a vanity metric. It is one way to read the evidence for Zeplin, not the verdict.
