Generate UI variations right on your canvas

Explore dozens of design directions at once with Figma's agent. Generate UI variations using your real components and styles—no rebuilding, no separate tools, just faster decisions on the canvas where you work.

Explore more directions, faster

Stop designing one option at a time. Generate UI variations in parallel so you can compare, iterate, and move forward with confidence.

Explore in higher fidelity, faster

Figma's agent generates real variations using your connected design library—actual components, tokens, and styles, not gray boxes. You're comparing production-ready options, not rough sketches that need to be rebuilt.

Cut the busywork, stay in flow

Skip the tedious work of manually duplicating frames and swapping properties one by one. Describe what you want to explore, and the agent handles the repetition while you focus on evaluating what works.

Align your team, close the loop

Every variation lives in the same file your team already works in. Stakeholders see the options, add feedback, and build on results—no exporting decks or recreating context in a separate tool.

The features behind the variations

A closer look at what sets Figma's agent apart, built for the way design teams actually work.

    Connect a design library

    Point the agent to your design system so every generated variation uses your real components, colors, and type styles—ready for feedback and iteration.

    Parallel prompting

    Run multiple prompts at once to explore different directions simultaneously. Compare a layout change, a color shift, and a component swap side by side.

    Shareable threads

    Share a thread and your team sees the full prompt, context, and iteration history behind any variation. The thinking is built into the file.

    Skills

    Turn your best variation workflows into reusable /commands. Generate A/B test options, responsive layouts, or theme variations with a single prompt.

Figma feels like a natural extension of my hand. I do my design ideation on the canvas, and now the agent takes it the last mile. With my design libraries connected, I can move from design to code faster than ever before.

Get started with Figma's agent

  • Open the agent

    Select Agents in the left side rail or hit CMD + Enter. Add a frame to the canvas or select an existing design to work from.

  • Describe your variations

    Tell the agent what to explore—layout options, color themes, component swaps. Point it to your design library so variations use your real system.

  • Review on the canvas

    Check the generated variations on your canvas. Refine in the same thread or start a parallel one to push a different direction further.

  • Keep iterating

    Prompt again to explore more, or fine-tune by hand. Turn workflows you repeat into reusable skills for next time.

FAQ

UI variation generation is the process of creating multiple design options from a single starting point—exploring different layouts, colors, component arrangements, or content to find what works best. Figma's agent accelerates this by generating variations directly on your canvas using your actual design system, so you can compare real options instead of rough concepts.

With Figma's agent, you describe what you want to explore—different layouts, color themes, or component configurations—and the agent generates variations in parallel on your canvas. You can run multiple prompts at once, so instead of designing one option at a time, you're comparing several directions simultaneously.

Figma's agent uses your connected design library to generate variations with your real components, tokens, and styles. You prompt what to change—layout, color, spacing—and the agent creates options directly on the canvas. Everything stays editable, so you can refine by hand or prompt again.

Variations help you explore possibilities before committing to a direction. They surface options you might not have considered and give stakeholders something concrete to react to. By generating variations quickly, teams can make better decisions faster and reduce the risk of investing in a single untested approach.

Figma's agent is available on all paid Figma plans. You'll find it in the left side rail in Figma Design. During the current open beta, it doesn't consume AI credits—so it's a good time to explore, experiment, and share your feedback with us.
