My experience with the agent has been slow and not very good - at least with basic asks over the last few weeks. I like Claude’s performance much better but of course not as simple to integrate the two but certainly possible.

….can you share what is the foundation of Figma’s agent and how is it improving?

Hi ​@Vic Zaud, thanks for your honest feedback!  

I completely understand the frustration with the AI Agent in Figma Design. Here's what I know: when Figma Make first launched in May 2025, it was built on Claude 3.7 Sonnet. Since then, the team has introduced additional models. More info here. As for the broader Figma Agent LLM foundation and whether the model stack has evolved further, I'm checking with the team to make sure I give you the most accurate and up-to-date answer. I'll follow up here when/if I hear back, but it is actually likely to also be Claude. 


In the meantime, a couple of questions that may help us understand your experience better:

  • Are you only seeing the slowness specifically with the AI Agent in Figma design? Or is Figma Make also affected depending on the chosen model?
  • What kinds of tasks are you running with the AI Agent when it feels sluggish?

Agent performance is something the team is actively working on, so your input genuinely helps. Thanks again for taking the time to share it!
