The honest brief
Figma AI
AI lives inside the tool designers already use, then pushes real design context straight into code — no rebuild in a separate app.
- Native to existing Figma files
- Figma Make produces working prototypes
- MCP server feeds Cursor/VS Code/Claude
- First Draft generates editable layouts
- AI tied to a Figma subscription
- Generated output still needs polish
- Newer features rolled out gradually
Stitch
Free prompt-to-UI generation with both Figma export and frontend code output — peers typically gate one or the other behind paid plans.
- Free with generous limits (beta)
- Exports to both Figma and code
- Voice-driven Live Mode edits
- Browser-based, no install
- Output can look generic off-brand
- Limited fine spacing/layout control
- Beta — paid plans expected
- Struggles with complex app flows
