Diagram
AI design tools from Diagram for Figma that assist with layout, copy, and visuals directly in the canvas, including Magician and Genius style helpers.
Diagram has been discontinued. The product was shut down, absorbed into another company, or now operates under a different brand. The information below is kept for reference and may describe the tool as it was.
Overview
Diagram builds AI assistants that work natively inside Figma so designers can explore directions faster without leaving the artboard. Plugins like Magician help generate copy, icons, and images from prompts, while smart suggestions iterate on components and layouts to keep flows consistent with your design system. Because these tools sit in the editor, teams can try variants, rewrite microcopy, and produce placeholder artwork in seconds, then hand off to developers with the same files and libraries.
Diagram was acquired by Figma, and its capabilities increasingly align with Figma’s AI roadmap, which means improved reliability, credits, and governance under Figma plans. Typical results are faster exploration and cleaner first drafts rather than final brand assets, and most teams keep a review loop to polish typography, spacing, and accessibility before shipping.
