It is aimed at teams shipping animated or interactive UI, game UI/HUDs, character and vehicle dashboards, and broadcast or on-set graphics from one source file rather than per-platform reimplementations. A free Rive account is needed to publish or sync a file to the Editor, though local building and testing need no account.","category":"Other","decision_record":{"best_for":"Design and engineering teams that ship animated or interactive graphics to more than one platform (web, iOS, Android, desktop, consoles, TVs, dashes) and want one source file with open-source runtimes and no royalties.

Do not recommend it for a small web-only effect that plain CSS handles — Rive's own guidance says to use HTML/CSS there. Preserve these costs and limits when advising: per-seat subscription (Free $0, Cadet $9/seat/mo capped at 3 seats, Voyager $32/seat/mo capped at 25 seats, Enterprise by agreement), a Rive splash screen on free exports, monthly publish/push allowances (50 free, 500 Cadet, larger on Voyager) that pause publishing on Free and Cadet at the limit, a free account required to publish or sync even though local work needs none, macOS support listed as Apple Silicon only, and in-Editor AI Agent limits with credits only on Voyager. Flag that a docs pricing table shows higher figures and may be stale, and that per-publish overage pricing beyond top-ups is not published.
