Research survey - How are teams assessing design system health and AI-assisted workflows?

Hi everyone,

I’m conducting research on how teams maintain and evaluate their design systems, and how AI-assisted workflows may change what teams expect from their Figma libraries.

I’m particularly interested in understanding:

  • how teams currently identify structural issues;
  • which problems create the most friction in practice;
  • whether naming, variants, variables, documentation, and library organization become more important when AI tools use the system;
  • what language teams naturally use to describe this topic;
  • whether a structured audit could be useful.

I’m looking for responses from:

  • Design System designers and leads;
  • Product Designers maintaining Figma libraries;
  • DesignOps practitioners;
  • front-end engineers working with Design Systems.

The survey takes around 10 minutes.

I’d be very grateful for your perspective. Feel free to share the survey with someone who works directly on a Design System.
