In this video we talk about Figma introducing an AI credit subscription system with monthly usage starting next month, why management says 75% of large customers already use AI credits weekly, and which AI features could get pulled into a paid credit model like instant background removals, auto-renaming layers, and rewriting/translating/summarizing. If you’ve been using these tools without thinking about it, this shift could change how you work in Figma Make and beyond. We also zoom out to the bigger point: tying AI usage to revenue, and what that usually means for “free” features once a credit system arrives.

Figma is to introduce an AI credit subscription system with monthly usage starting next month. Command AI. How many AI tools are you guys using in Figma right now that are free? Cuz here's the thing. Management has said that 75% of large customers already use AI credits weekly. So moving to an explicit AI subscription and usage limits gives the company a clearer way to tie that usage to revenue. I wonder like how much are you guys I'm not a Figma user, right? So how much are you guys already using um AI stuff in Figma? Is it a lot? Is it a little? I would like to know what what is what is their AI thing? Well, I know we use the AI thing cuz I think we use the background remover. I think that's AI driven. Uh Figma make that's I think that's free at the moment. So that could again be a credit system in Figma make uh interactions looks like it's an AI thing. Yep. Rename automatic layers. Refine images. Add relevant content. Are you using any of this? Instant background removals. I said do we use that? Rewrite. Translate. Generate. Sort. Summarize. All of this I reckon will be paid for. So, uh, yeah, better to get your wallets out, boys. Yeah, that's all I have to say about it. I don't know what the prices are. This is part of a larger conversation on my show, Command AI, which we stream live every single week. We discuss the news and all things related to AI in the world of design and web.
