Figma has acquired Weavy, a creative platform that allows users to link AI models and editing tools together, and use them simultaneously in a single canvas. The platform will now live under its new parent company as “Figma Weave,” according to Figma’s announcement, adding an image and video editing tool to Figma’s growing design ecosystem.
Weavy uses a node-based approach to give creators more control when making AI-generated content. Instead of repeatedly using prompts in a single AI app, users can make branches that add multiple steps to the process, instructing the platform to edit a project using multiple tools without jumping to another app, or feed a single set of instructions into multiple AI models simultaneously to compare the best results.
“We see AI outputs as a new medium to mold, and we believe the combination of human craft alongside AI generation unlocks more expression and a bolder point of view,” Figma said in the announcement. “If you want to stand out, you have to push beyond the prompt to get to something great.”
