Figma AIVSGoogle Stitch
We compare two AI UI design tools on price, prompt-to-UI generation, code export and ecosystem. See detailed reviews: Figma AI, Google Stitch.
In-Depth Analysis
Figma AI and Google Stitch approach AI-assisted UI design from two different sides. Figma AI runs inside the industry's mature design tool and draws its strength from a full editor, component systems and team collaboration. Google Stitch (formerly Galileo AI, acquired by Google in 2025) is a free, AI-first design canvas that generates high-fidelity screens from prompts.
Stitch's most striking traits are speed and price: it is free, generates high-fidelity UI in about 20 minutes, and its March 2026 update added an infinite canvas, voice interaction, a design agent and MCP integration. One of its strongest cards is code export: it outputs across 7 frameworks including HTML/CSS, Tailwind, Vue, Angular, Flutter, SwiftUI and React, and it exports designs to Figma while preserving layers and components. That is disruptive enough that even Figma has taken notice.
Figma AI offers a different value: it can produce a quick draft with First Draft, but the real power is developing that in a mature editor, building component systems, tying into a design system, and working in real time as a team. It bridges to code with Dev Mode and Figma Make; the end-to-end flow from generation to handoff is still where Figma is strongest.
Bottom line: if you want professional design systems, fine-tuning, component discipline and team collaboration, Figma AI is the overall winner. If you want to quickly and freely generate high-fidelity UI from a prompt and export code to many frameworks, Stitch is exceptionally efficient. Many teams use both: generate the idea in Stitch, then export to Figma to mature it there.
Tool Overview
Figma AI
Figma AI brings artificial intelligence capabilities directly into the world's most popular collaborative design tool, enhancing existing workflows rather than replacing them. These AI features are integrated natively within Figma's interface, allowing designers to accelerate repetitive tasks and focus more time on creative decision-making. Key AI capabilities include automated layer renaming that intelligently labels layers based on their content and purpose, auto-layout suggestions that analyze design structures and recommend optimal layout configurations, and AI-powered asset generation that creates placeholder images, icons, and content directly within the design canvas. The visual search feature helps designers find specific components and design elements across large file libraries using natural language descriptions. Figma AI also offers text generation for populating designs with realistic copy, background removal for images placed on the canvas, and intelligent object recognition that can suggest design improvements. Because these features are built into Figma, they integrate seamlessly with collaborative multiplayer editing, component systems, and developer handoff workflows. Figma AI targets the platform's existing user base of product designers, UI/UX designers, design systems teams, and cross-functional product teams who already rely on Figma as their primary design tool. AI credits depend on the plan and seat type. Additional usage may require purchased credits. For design teams already working in Figma, these AI enhancements provide meaningful productivity gains without requiring adoption of new tools or changes to established design workflows.
Google Stitch
Google Stitch is a free AI UI design tool from Google Labs that turns natural-language prompts, screenshots, or wireframes into polished, multi-screen app and web interfaces, then exports them as front-end code or to Figma. Built on the technology Google acquired from Galileo AI in early 2025 and launched at Google I/O, Stitch is powered by the Gemini 2.5 model family: a Standard mode (Gemini 2.5 Flash) for fast layout generation and an Experimental/Pro mode (Gemini 2.5 Pro) for higher-fidelity results and image inputs. It can generate up to five interconnected screens at once while keeping design consistency, and exports production-ready HTML/CSS, Tailwind, and other front-end formats.
