Figma Make is now generally available, offering AI-powered features to shorten design cycles and handle repetitive tasks. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted to measure the time savings and ease of use. The study found that overall, design work became 20% faster and 16% easier with Figma Make. Product Managers (PMs) saw the biggest benefits, with tasks being 23% faster and 37% easier. The study also revealed that PMs experienced significant gains on simpler tasks, while product designers saw improvements on more complex interaction design tasks. The RCT design involved controlling for confounders through random assignment, standardized tasks, and trial moderation, addressing limitations of traditional A/B testing and causal inference methods.

Measuring time savings from Figma Make

8/11/2026

This post details the methodology and findings of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) designed to measure the time savings and efficiency gains from using Figma Make. It explains the challenges of measuring AI impact due to confounders and why traditional methods like A/B testing and causal inference were insufficient. The post outlines the RCT design, including participant selection (100 participants: 50 product designers, 50 product managers), task design (social media post editing, dark mode conversion, adding menu options, building comment fly-up interactions), and moderation procedures. Key results highlight overall time savings (20%), ease improvement (16%), and usability gains (15%), with specific benefits for PMs and differentiated impacts on designers based on task complexity.

A properties panel and annotations, now in Figma Make

7/30/2026

Introduced a properties panel for direct visual manipulation of design elements (spacing, typography, layout) within Figma Make. Added an annotation feature to provide agents with specific context for edits beyond visual properties, enabling more precise control over interactions and animations. These features aim to streamline the design-to-code workflow by offering visual controls and contextual prompting.

Workflow lab: Deploying designs directly with Figma Make

7/16/2026

This post details the integration of Figma Make with production codebases via GitHub, enabling designers to directly edit code, create branches, and push pull requests. It highlights the ability to identify and fix shared components, incorporate accessibility annotations, and maintain a detailed history of changes within the pull request, streamlining the process from design to production for small fixes.

How Decagon uses AI for design system saturation

7/10/2026

This post details how Decagon uses Figma Make and MCP servers to integrate their design system with AI coding agents. It highlights how agents can read directly from Figma to create high-fidelity starting points, map designs to design system components, and reduce iteration time. The post also discusses how Figma Make is used for prototyping interactive dashboards and charts based on customer feedback, further streamlining the product development process.

GPT-5.6 is now available in Figma Make

7/9/2026

This post introduces GPT-5.6 to Figma Make, highlighting its improved capabilities in generating code from prompts, handling complex designs, self-healing build errors, and accurately translating existing design files into interactive prototypes. It also details its effectiveness in producing high-quality, responsive e-commerce website prototypes.

Code on the Figma canvas

6/24/2026

Introduces 'code layers' on the Figma canvas, enabling interactive code to be part of the design file. This allows for direct generation of code from designs, import of existing codebases, and extraction of code back into editable design layers. It facilitates collaborative iteration on code directly within the design environment and integration with code repositories.
