Troubleshoot AI tools in Figma design
Note: Figma’s AI features are currently free while in beta, but usage limits may apply. When made generally available, we’ll update you on pricing.
Common errors and solutions
At Config, we launched Make designs in limited beta. This feature, which is part of Figma AI, is powered by off-the-shelf models and a bespoke design system commissioned by Figma. We recently learned of an issue caused by the underlying design system.
In response, we have temporarily rolled back Make designs as we actively work to address the issue, and plan to reenable the feature again soon.
