As a designer, having the right tools can make a big difference in your workflow.
1. Vector to 3D
Vector to 3D converts your 2D text and vector layers into 3D models with just one click, using a powerful built-in ray tracing renderer.
Create stunning 3D icons, banners, mockups without needing to be a 3D specialist.
2. AI Design Reviewer- Copy, UI, Accessibility & CTA Feedback
Built by the creators of Siri, the AI Design Reviewer is trained on hundreds of guidelines from Nielsen Norman, Refactoring UI, and IDEO.
It’ll provide instant feedback and suggestions to enhance your web designs, improve your copy with tailored suggestions, catch and fix UI bugs quickly. It’ll also ensure your designs meet WCAG, AA, and AAA accessibility standards.
3. Cassini Copilot
Cassini is a collaborative toolkit for product teams that seamlessly integrates into your existing setup — whether it’s your browser or Figma workspace — making various stages of the product development process smoother and more organized. Here are a few key ways in which it helps:
Dev feedback — Cassini’s overlay tool helps you compare developed screens with their designs, so you can catch and fix any inconsistencies.
Visual referencing — Using Cassini’s Chrome plugin, you can snap screenshots of references from the web, group them into Sets, and share them easily with your team for feedback.
Team reviews — Cassini streamlines team reviews with features like comment grouping, multi-pin comments, and setting due dates for action items, making discussions productive and efficient.
4. Circular Text
Easily generate both circular and arc text in your designs with the Circular text plugin.
By default, the text wraps around a full circle. However, you can adjust the settings to create text that follows an arc of any angle (like 90 or 180 degrees).
5. Noise & Texture
Noise & Texture plugin lets you dynamically create seamless tiled noise, textures, patterns, gradients, and more.
Simply select a layer, apply your chosen noise or texture, and adjust the settings to see live updates. You can also customise your canvas size and default colors to fit your design needs.
6. Instance Finder
Instance Finder helps you locate all instances of a component used in your file.
Select a single instance or component, and the plugin will search through all pages and frames. It’ll create a comprehensive list of where the component is used.
The list is organised by page for easy navigation, and clicking on any item will zoom in on that specific instance.
7. Animate on path
Animate on path is a powerful plugin with which you can select the object you want to move, such as a frame, instance, or shape.
Next, choose the curve you want the object to follow. You can create curves using the pen tool.
8. Design system organizer
Design system organizer lets you bulk swap instances and styles between master components with the same name.
You can also copy styles between different files.
Manage pathnames, like “toolbar/nav/back,” using a convenient folder-like interface.
9. Find and replace styles
Find and replace styles plugin is ideal for finding and replacing styles across components, instances, and library styles. It’s especially useful for aligning parameters in bulk, such as auto layout or library styles, ensuring your designs are pixel-perfect across projects.
