    Why switch from Open Design

    Prompt-to-prototype inside Figma, better if your team already designs and hands off in Figma.

    Pros

    • Uses your existing Figma designs and components
    • Included with Figma plans
    • Good for realistic, clickable prototypes

    Cons

    • Less suited to production apps than dedicated builders
    • AI usage limits depend on your Figma seat
    • Strongest only if your team already uses Figma
