About Figma AI (Figma Make)
What is Figma AI (Figma Make)?
The AI features built into Figma, led by Figma Make, which turns prompts and existing designs into interactive, publishable app prototypes. Other features include image editing on the canvas, visual search across files, text rewriting, and beta tools such as an in-file agent and generative plugins. Figma AI (Figma Make) is an AI-powered design tool that generates, edits, and iterates on visual designs — from logos and brand assets to UI mockups and marketing materials.
Figma is already standard in many Australian product and design teams, so its AI features need little extra procurement. The key setting to check is content training: on Starter and Professional plans it is on by default and an admin must turn it off, while Organisation and Enterprise plans have it off. If designs contain unreleased product details or client material under NDA, confirm this setting. Prototypes published from Figma Make are public web content, so check accessibility and that any personal data collected complies with the Privacy Act 1988.

Frequently Asked Questions About Figma AI (Figma Make)
Does Figma train AI on my designs?
It depends on your plan. On Starter and Professional plans, content training is on by default and an admin can turn it off in settings. On Organisation and Enterprise plans it is off by default. Turning off training does not disable AI features; that is a separate admin setting.
What is Figma Make and who can use it?
Figma Make is Figma's prompt-to-app tool. It turns a description or an existing Figma design into an interactive app that you can refine by conversation and publish to a web address. It is available to Full seats on paid plans, with limited trial access for other seats and plans.
Can Figma Make replace a developer?
Not for production software. It is useful for prototypes, internal tools and testing ideas with users, but generated code still needs review for security, accessibility and maintainability. Australian businesses publishing apps that collect personal information should also check privacy notices and data storage before going live.
