Figma ships two AI products to the same seat: Make, which builds working prototypes from prompts, and an agent that edits the design file. Both start from the asset no competitor has, your Figma library.
Key Takeaways
- Two AI products in one seat. — Figma Make builds interactive prototypes and web apps from a prompt; the Figma design agent works on the design canvas itself.
- Your library is the guardrail. — Make imports Figma libraries for brand consistency, and the agent starts from your most-used components, with tokens and variables you can @-mention.
- Credits apply since October 6, 2026. — The agent left beta and began drawing AI credits on October 6, 2026; it shares one monthly budget with Make.
What do Figma Make and the Figma agent do?
Figma Make is a prompt-to-app tool for interactive, high-fidelity prototypes. It can import a Figma library (colors, type, usage guidelines, core styles) so output matches the brand, and it connects to Supabase when a prototype needs real data. Full-seat users can publish Make files; publishing was still in beta at general availability.
The Figma design agent works on the canvas. It generates and explores directions, makes bulk edits such as renaming variables, swapping components or updating typography, fills frames with realistic content, and organizes feedback into next steps. It starts from frequently used components, and you can pick a library or @-mention tokens, variables and components. Figma positions its MCP server separately: the agent does canvas work, the MCP server moves work between code and Figma. The agent left beta and began using credits on October 6, 2026 (Figma Help Center).
How does Figma Make score?
Editorial scores from published documentation, announcements and pricing pages checked through November 5, 2026, not hands-on benchmarks. Total: 16/20, on the same criteria as the Best AI Design Agents guide.
| Criterion | Score | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Autonomy | 4/5 | Make builds working prototypes and apps; the agent generates directions, bulk-edits files and fills content. |
| Brand control | 5/5 | Works from your Figma libraries, components, tokens and variables. |
| Handoff | 4/5 | Native Figma layers; Make files publish; Supabase backend; the MCP server moves work between code and Figma. |
| Access | 3/5 | Starter gets limited Make use; full features need a paid Full seat; credit limits are shared and metered. |
How are Figma Make and the agent priced?
Both come with a Full seat on Professional, Organization and Enterprise plans; Starter accounts get Make drafts and can share up to three Make files. Figma lists monthly credits per Full seat of 3,000 (Professional), 3,500 (Organization) and 4,250 (Enterprise). Make and the agent share one budget. An August 25, 2026 change gave add-on buyers more credits at the same cost (2x on Professional, 1.6x on Organization and Enterprise); add-on prices are shown in the admin dashboard rather than on a public page.
Who is Figma Make for?
- Fits: teams whose design system already lives in Figma, and design orgs that want AI inside the review and handoff process they already run.
- Look elsewhere: teams that want code in their own repo (v0), a free tool for early exploration (Google Stitch), or design that flows straight into Claude Code (Claude Design).
What are the Figma Make alternatives?
- Claude Design: design system built from your codebase, handoff to Claude Code.
- Google Stitch: free, agent-led UI design from Google Labs.
- Lovable: full-stack apps from prompts.
- Compare: Claude Design vs Figma Make vs Google Stitch.
