    Figma on Tuesday announced a partnership with Anthropic and unveiled a new feature, “Code to Canvas,” that converts AI-generated code into fully editable designs within Figma.

    The feature creates a direct bridge between AI coding tools such as Claude Code and Figma’s collaborative design platform.

    How it works


    Users who generate functional interfaces through AI prompts can import that output directly into Figma’s canvas. Teams can then refine layouts, tweak components, compare variations side by side, and align on design decisions.

    As agentic coding tools gain rapid adoption across software teams, Figma is positioning itself not as a replacement to AI workflows but as the refinement layer — where AI-generated interfaces are polished for production.

        The announcement comes amid volatility in US software stocks, triggered in part by fresh product launches from Anthropic.

        The Dario Amodei-led company recently rolled out 11 AI plugins aimed at automating a wide range of professional tasks. Its agentic AI platform, Claude Cowork, launched in January. While Claude Code had already unsettled tech investors, the release of a Legal Automation plugin on February 3 reignited concerns, sparking another wave of sell-offs.

        Figma has not been immune. Its shares are down 17.51% over the past month, trading at $22.90.

        The company is scheduled to report earnings Wednesday after market close. In the second quarter, it reported revenue of $249.6 million, up 41% year-on-year. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $0.09, ahead of the $0.08 estimate.
