Maze allows you to test your Figma prototype with real users. Gain insight and build better products with usability metrics and valuable feedback.
Use Maze to:
- Run usability testing on Figma prototypes
- Create missions for users to complete
- A/B test designs to compare performance
- Get quantitative data like success rates, misclick rates, and duration.
- Review heatmaps for each screen in your prototype
- Ask follow-up questions with scales or open-ended questions
- Find the best user flow for your designs
- Run in-person tests using a single device
How it works
Maze uses your Figma prototype's share link to create a new project in Maze. Maze will need read-only access to all your Figma Files to import the information needed to create a user test.
Tip! If you're new to Maze, you can create a Maze account for free or paste the Figma prototype link on the Maze website.

Test a Prototype in Maze
Once you have imported a Figma prototype to Maze, it’s time to start testing.
- Create a maze with blocks of missions and questions. Learn more about the type of blocks you can use in the Maze Help Center.
- Click Start testing in the top menu.
- Copy and Share the maze URL with people to get results.
- Access your results and report.
Update the Prototype in Maze
If you make changes to a prototype in Figma, you’ll need to update the prototype in Maze as well. You can either create a new maze with the updated prototype or refresh the prototype in an existing maze.
Create a new maze
- Open the current Maze project based on the previous version of the prototype.
- Click the Import new prototype version in the Draft maze column on the left.
- Maze will create a new draft test based on the latest version of the prototype.
Update an existing maze
If you’ve already started creating your Maze test, you can update the prototype from the creation dashboard.
- Open the current Maze test you’ve been working on.
- Click Refresh my prototype to update the Figma prototype in Maze.
