Design Mode
Designers

Redesign any website

Most design tools want you to start in a file. Design Mode lets you start on the actual page — your site, a competitor's, an open-source landing page, anything on the open web — and redesign it visually in your browser.

The problem

Recreating a real page in Figma so you can iterate on it is enormous setup cost. By the time the mock is ready, the live page has changed. Iteration in a mock that doesn't match production means decisions that don't translate.

The workflow

  1. Step 1

    Open the page

    Browse to any URL. Open the Design Mode side panel.

  2. Step 2

    Click anything; edit anything

    Typography, colour, layout, spacing, motion, effects, copy, DOM. Every input is a real control — not a CSS textarea.

  3. Step 3

    Compare before / after

    Use the screenshot button to capture before, make your edits, capture after.

  4. Step 4

    Export the spec

    Send to your engineering team as a structured diff, or push to an AI agent to write the code.

The outcome

No mock-up gap. The thing you designed and the thing in production are the same page.
