Use AI in Your Design Workflows
Figma
Last updated July 25, 2026
Use AI in your design workflows is a free, official Figma collection that teaches designers how to fold Figma's built-in AI agent into everyday design work. Structured across 15 short chapters (about two hours total), it moves from immediate wins — exploring more directions, reducing repetitive tasks, and getting sharper feedback — through adding AI-generated imagery, effects, and motion, to building team-level systems: reusable agent "skills," agent-built plugins, and design-system guidance so the Figma agent produces on-brand results. No coding is required; the agent builds plugins and automations from plain-language prompts rather than requiring you to write code yourself.
What you'll learn
- Using the Figma agent to explore more directions, cut repetitive work, and get sharper design feedback
- Generating imagery, custom shaders/effects, and motion with AI, directly in Figma
- Building reusable agent "skills" and agent-built plugins for repeatable workflows
- Helping the Figma agent understand and work within your team's design system
- Turning designs into working prototypes (and back again)
Frequently asked questions about Use AI in Your Design Workflows
Who is Use AI in Your Design Workflows for?
Designers already working in Figma who want to use its built-in AI agent for faster exploration, generated imagery and motion, and team-level design-system workflows.
Is Use AI in Your Design Workflows free?
Yes — Use AI in Your Design Workflows is completely free to take.
What are the prerequisites for Use AI in Your Design Workflows?
A free Figma account; comfort with basic Figma Design workflows (files, components, design systems) is assumed, though no coding or paid plan is required.
Why we suggest this course
Free, official, and specific to a single widely used design tool rather than general AI theory — a direct guide to using AI productively inside Figma. One thing to know: it assumes existing familiarity with Figma Design (components, design systems), so it suits designers already using the tool rather than complete beginners to Figma.
