Let’s get started!

Figma Make makes vibe-coding accessible for everyone

Figma just took a big step toward making AI-native product creation part of everyday workflows. After months in limited beta, Figma Make is now available to all users, bringing powerful prompt-to-prototype capabilities to the broader design and product community. It’s part of the company’s larger AI bundle introduced earlier this year, and now, teams everywhere can try it, build with it, and actually ship ideas faster than ever.

  • Build an app with plain language. Type something like “an expense tracker with monthly summaries and category filters,” and Figma Make generates layouts, navigation flows, forms, tables, and button actions. It’s a prototype you can click through and interact with .
  • Refine visually or with follow‑on prompts. Want to tweak a label, add a section, or change layout? Just point and type. You can also drag UI components and tweak styles manually.
  • Connect real logic and data. Forms validate input, buttons navigate to other screens, and you can even hook up to Supabase as a backend to store data or add authentication to bring your prototype closer to a real app .
  • Available now to every Figma user. As of July 24, 2025, Figma Make and all AI tools are out of beta and accessible to all account types. Full‑seat subscribers can publish apps; Starter plan users get draft access plus three shares; View/Collab/Dev seats can draft unlimited files.

Every user seat now gets a monthly allocation. Full‑seat users have high or unlimited limits now (with power‑user options coming later), while lighter plans get smaller, enforceable quotas.

This shift turns Figma into a prompt‑to‑app platform, bridging idea and prototype in minutes. It’s built for real product exploration, which is closed‑loop, interactive, and immediately shareable. This promises fewer design handoffs and faster MVP creation.

As part of the broader shift toward AI-native creation, Google also introduced Opal, an experimental tool in Google Labs that lets users build simple app flows using prompts and modular logic blocks. It points in the same direction, but Opal remains U.S.-only and in early testing.

A question now is: What parts of your product workflow could move faster if anyone on your team could turn a prompt into a working prototype before the next design sprint even begins?

Your AI Team: Google’s “Web Guide”, YouTube Shorts’ image-to-video tools, and more

Every week, I report on the top updates to your favorite AI tools. This week:

Google experiments with AI-powered “Web Guide” for search

Google is quietly testing a new AI-driven feature called Web Guide that turns complex search topics into structured, browsable outlines, offering a glimpse into how search might evolve beyond links and snippets.

Key updates:

  • AI organizes the web into chapters: When searching broad topics like “climate change” or “get started with investing,” Web Guide groups results into categories like “Key Concepts,” “Recent Research,” or “Beginner Guides” making it easier to explore systematically.
  • Designed for topic exploration, not just answers: Instead of pushing one quick answer, Web Guide supports users who want to learn deeply or compare perspectives across sources.
  • Still early, and only in the U.S.: This is an experimental feature, currently showing up for a small subset of English-language searches, but Google says more topics will be added over time.

As traditional “10 blue links” fade, this structured interface joins AI Overviews and Perspectives in Google’s push to redesign how results are presented.

For execs building knowledge-heavy products or internal tools, this signals a direction worth watching: AI interfaces that guide, not just answer. How might this shift your team’s approach to search, onboarding, or even documentation?

Quick Hits from your favorite AI tools:

  • Google Photos adds AI tools to remix and animate your memories: A new “Ask Photos” feature now lets users request AI to turn pictures into videos or apply creative visual styles, pushing Google Photos further into generative territory.
  • YouTube Shorts introduces AI image-to-video tools and dynamic effects: Creators can now turn static images into short videos using AI and apply real-time style effects like “comic” or “vintage,” aimed at making Shorts more competitive with TikTok.
  • Perplexity Comet adds reusable AI tasks to streamline workflows: Users can now trigger repeat tasks like summarizing pages or drafting outlines directly from the Comet browser.
  • Dia introduces Skill Gallery to organize and share prompt-based tools: The AI browser Dia now lets users save prompts as “skills” and browse community-submitted ones, creating a low-code ecosystem for task automation across knowledge work.
