DesignGen: Prompt-to-Design Magic

Overview

Supercharge your design workflow with Codia AI DesignGen, an AI-powered Figma plugin that generates fully editable UI components from plain English prompts. Whether you're wireframing an app, designing a landing page, or exploring layout ideas, this plugin helps you go from idea to visual in just one click. No more blank canvases — just type, generate, and iterate.

Built for designers, developers, and product teams who want to move faster and smarter.

Key Features

1. Prompt-to-Design Magic

Type what you want — "a modern login page," "a pricing section with three plans," or "a mobile navbar" — and watch the plugin instantly generate a tailored UI layout in Figma.

2. Fully Editable Components

Every design is natively built in Figma using Auto Layout, proper naming, and editable styles, so you can customize immediately without breaking the structure.

3. Style-Aware Generation

Add your own design tokens or themes and the AI will follow your brand colors, fonts, and spacing — ensuring consistency across your designs.

4. Smart Iteration

Need a variation? Refine your prompt or click Regenerate to explore alternative versions instantly, helping you ideate faster and more creatively.

5. Drag-and-Drop Optimization

Enhance AI-generated designs with intuitive drag-and-drop. Refine layouts, edit elements directly in Figma, and tailor the design to your exact needs — no learning curve required.

6. Advanced Palette & Theme Capabilities

DesignGen doesn't just design; it stylizes. Advanced palette and theme options let you build a personalized design system that resonates with your brand identity and aesthetic preferences.

Tips for Great Prompts

  • Name the artifact — "landing page," "pricing section," "mobile navbar" — so the AI picks the right layout family
  • List the blocks — hero, feature grid, testimonials, footer
  • Mention the vibe — "minimal B2B," "playful consumer," "dark-mode dashboard"
  • Bring your tokens — attach brand colors and fonts up front so the first generation already looks on-brand
  • Iterate small — change one thing per regenerate to see what it actually affects

FAQ

Do I need to sketch anything first?

No. DesignGen is built for the blank-canvas moment — prompt alone is enough. You can still drop in reference frames if you want.

Can I use my own brand tokens?

Yes — add your design tokens / themes and generation will follow your brand colors, fonts, and spacing.

Is the output truly editable?

Yes. Every frame comes out as native Figma with Auto Layout, named layers, and editable styles.
