Figma boosts its AI editing tools as it combines forces with popular AI platform Weavy (www.techradar.com)

Figma acquired AI content platform Weavy and rebranded it as Figma Weave, integrating Weavy’s browser-based, node‑based generative workflow directly into Figma. The move brings image, video, animation, motion design and VFX creation and editing into a single collaborative canvas, letting designers pick from multiple AI models (examples called out include Veo 3, GPT img 1 and Ideogram V3), branch and remix outputs, and refine results with professional edits like color grading and masking without switching apps. Figma frames the integration as amplifying human creativity rather than replacing it, tightening the loop between exploration and craft. For the AI/ML community this is notable because it foregrounds model orchestration and controllability inside a production design UI: node graphs make it easy to compare models, chain transformations, and maintain provenance of generative assets. That can accelerate creative pipelines, simplify A/B-style evaluation of model outputs, and expose new UX patterns for mixed human/AI editing. It also raises practical considerations — compute, model licensing, moderation, and reproducibility — as teams adopt multi-model workflows at scale. Overall, Figma Weave signals a step toward composable, collaborative generative toolchains embedded in mainstream design platforms.
