    Hey folks- couldn’t be more excited to announce that the Wake team is joining InVision! Thought I'd drop some additional context in this thread if its helpful.


    WHY WAKE + INVISION?

    Honestly… this was a match made in heaven from the beginning. Both teams have been passionate about collaboration, sharing, and visibility within design teams since their inception. This shared vision and passion for the space made this an obvious team-up opportunity that we're both thrilled about.

    Wake + InVision


    THE DETAILS

    • FIRST: Wake will continue to operate as a separate brand, providing service to its customers. Yay!

    • SECOND: With more expansive support and funding behind it with InVision, Wake will be in an excellent position to launch it’s free plan tier making it accessible to even more teams.

    • THIRD: Both Wake and InVision teams will be working side-by-side in the future to collaboratively push the design communication workflow even further. There’s still lots of good to be done here (as well as many new ideas we’ve been itching to crank on together). We’re excited to be climbing this mountain; the old saying rings true: if you want to go far, go together.

    Big kudos to Chris and the entire Wake team for building something truly special with Wake. Onward and upward together; welcome to the team!

    Invision is just gobblin' up the design market and churning out a ton of software. None of Invision's own software seems to be particularly polished or high quality or stable but they are definitely doing a lot in the space. This should hopefully improve their lineup! I've been excited to use Wake for ages but the pricing model was always too steep and I didn't have a solid enough use case, so this is an awesome development.

    Wow - I remember seeing Wake just as Chris Kalani started it up, and William Wilkinson made a super cool video for them.

    Awesome to see it was a success - well done Chris & team
