Challenging the Chatbot
We’ve been exploring UX patterns for AI outside of the chat interface.
Chat has become the de facto standard for AI. What if we instead embed intelligence into the interfaces we already know?

I think people debate back and forth because it's just that both are good
What we need are tools that are more connected so you can jump back and forth and use the best tool for the task
If you want alt+drag, infinite canvas, see 10 variations side-by-side, spatial reasoning, direct manipulation very fast, use a canvas tool.
If you want interactions, states, animations, etc, prompting/coding is excellent

2025 was a massive year for Figma and Q4 was our best quarter yet:
→ accelerated Q4 revenue growth to 40% YoY
→ Q4 net dollar retention rate up 5% from Q3 for $10k+ customers
→ adjusted free cash flow margin for Q4 of 13%
→ ended 2025 with $1.7B cash and investments
AI offers a new creative starting point. Design is where the work connects and how you push to something great. We want Figma to be the place where it all comes together.
Big year ahead!

The first step is to recognize that taste, design, craft and point of view are key.
But important to recognize: this is just the first step of a lifelong journey.
