Figma Make
Figma wins because its AI works where most product designers already are. In the design canvas, the Figma agent (the new entry point for what was called First Draft) generates editable wireframes and designs from a prompt. Figma Make goes further: it turns a prompt, frames or a PRD into a working, interactive prototype or app in code, and can pull in your design system through Make kits and npm packages. Figma says a version that works on your local codebase is in beta.
Figma's own help pages note that First Draft builds from Figma's own wireframe and design libraries, so pure canvas generation can look generic. Make is the stronger tool for on-brand work. AI credits are metered: 3,000 a month on a $16 Full seat, and only 500 on cheaper seats.
Pick it if your team designs in Figma and wants AI inside that workflow. Skip it if you are a non-designer who finds Figma intimidating.
