Really proud of our AI research team @figma, and of how openly they wrote this up.
When an agent edits your design, the hard part isn't making a change. It's making the change you meant and keeping everything else you made. So we trained our own design model and let designers decide what "good" means. Expert designers wrote the criteria the model is rewarded on and calibrated the judges that score it. We score each part of an edit separately instead of blending everything into one number.
The best sign it's working is that people undo the agent's edits 60% less often. That's what it should feel like to work alongside it.
Our new post covers what worked, what didn't, and what we're still figuring out.
If building AI that collaborates well with people sounds like your kind of problem, we're hiring!

to be introduced at config '27, i hope
the thinking and context behind your work deserve a home in figma. specs gives you, your team, and your agents a place to make sense of it all, right alongside your designs and code.
it’s still early, but i’m super proud of this one. we started incubating it shortly after joining figma, and it’s been a blast :)
rolling out in beta to paid plans now!

the only moat left is a medieval defensive excavation, typically filled with water, created to impede siege operations. and design.

i highly recommend sitting next to @nikolasklein and waiting for the inevitable "wanna see something cool?"
you'll do your best work in a tool that allows you to be whimsical, too!
🔊🔊🔊 — lol i've lost hours building fun stuff like this with code layers…
@figma code layers starting to roll out into open beta TODAY! incredibly excited to see what you'll cook!

Meet Specs, a way to build rich context with your team, right on the Figma canvas. Bring the brief, designs and technical details together, so your teammates and AI agents can understand what you’re building (and why).

feeling lucky to have had a frontrow seat to the work behind figma design agent. it’s early, and there’s still lots to make better, but the care that went into it was inspiring to witness. also: compared to where it was just a few months ago in beta, it’s night and day.
check it out!
Excited to share that today Figma agent is available to everyone! We built it to help teams get into creative flow and stay there, making it faster to get started and raising the ceiling on what's possible. Less time doing the dishes, more time making something special.
It's been one heck of a journey getting to this point, navigating a fast-changing landscape of technological possibilities, and an even faster-changing landscape of what we and our customers expect the product to be able to deliver.
There's still so much more to do, but I'm proud of the starting point we've made: combining the power of a coding agent with the speed and flexibility of the collaborative canvas. Once you've worked with agents visually, with your teammates, in real time, it's hard to imagine anything else. Building something great has always been a team sport.

This was one of those projects the team & I were fiending for since I joined @figma. There's always been this fundamental tension between an infinite canvas, touch, and a phone screen size -- but we believe it should be as easy as navigating the photos app on your phone
Lots of other little wins here too like exporting assets to your phone and sharing links to an exact frame! Check out the app when you get a chance: figma.com/downloads/
Smoother navigation and collaboration just landed on mobile → figma.bot/FigmaDownloads

An idea I've been playing with. Develop. A photo app that acts just like a film camera: film rolls, no instant previews, double exposures, you gotta wait for the film to develop, you get your photos in a beautiful envelope, each photo feels special. Save to your camera roll or send to a friend.
