About Figma
Capture your live websites and bring them into Figma as editable layers. BRING IN A LIVE PAGE OR ELEMENT Grab a full page or select the elements you need straight from your browser, no codebase, terminal, or coding agent required. START FROM WHAT’S IN PRODUCTION Pull the latest production UI, a teammate's shipped modal, or a live page onto the canvas and riff from something true instead of rebuilding by hand. SEND TO FIGMA AS LAYERS Captured elements and pages are pasted into Figma as editable layers, rather than screenshots, with your file's variables attached instead of hardcoded values. SHARE FILES IN YOUR CALENDAR EVENTS Quick-add Figma or FigJam files to your Google Calendar events so attendees land on the right resource. Screen capture is in beta.
