# Alba > Alba is an AI design agent for Figma on the Mac. Describe a screen, paste a screenshot or sketch it on the canvas — Alba builds it in your Figma file with your design system, then checks every detail before it says done. Closed beta, free. Alba is a desktop app for the Mac, made by bey.agency. It is a design agent: it works in the Figma desktop app for the designer — opening files, building sections with the file's own design system, and measuring the result — rather than passing requests along through someone else's connector.

Maker on X: https://x.com/berkayerdinc_. ## Key facts - Category: AI design agent for Figma (design tool, macOS app). - Works in: the Figma desktop app, in your own file. - Input: words, a screenshot or picture, a rough sketch on the canvas, or a selection to revise. - Output: finished, editable Figma sections built from your design system's tokens and components. - Checks its own work before it says done: contrast (WCAG AA), overflow, text styles, overlaps, requested sizes. - Every run can be undone in one step; it asks before deleting anything you made. - Requirements: a Mac and Figma's desktop app. - Availability: closed beta, inviting designers from the waitlist in small groups. - Price: the closed beta is free; everyone who joins keeps free access when pricing arrives. - How to join: the waitlist at https://alba.ai2.design (name and email). ## What Alba does - **Build from words, a screenshot or a sketch** (Available in the beta): Describe a section, paste any interface, or draw boxes on the canvas and select them — Alba builds a finished section in your Figma file. - **Your design system, installed** (Available in the beta): Bring a system from a Figma file, a token file or a live page, or pick a well-known free one; Alba builds with its tokens and components, never a guessed colour. - **Done means checked** (Available in the beta): Before it says done, Alba measures its own work in Figma — contrast, overflow, text styles, overlaps and the sizes you asked for — and fixes what fails or tells you. - **Revise by selection** (Available in the beta): Select a frame and say what should change; Alba edits only what you pointed at. - **Every step visible, every run undoable** (Available in the beta): Each step appears as it happens, and one click takes the whole run back. - **It uses Figma for you** (Available in the beta): Alba opens new files and works through Figma’s own menus to get itself ready. - **Prototype and motion** (Available in the beta): Interactions and keyframe motion on Figma’s own timeline, exported as a clip. - **The generator** (Available in the beta): Build a design system of your own for a website, dashboard, iOS or Android — colour, tokens, contrast (WCAG 2), type, spacing, grid, elevation — and import it into Figma as variables and styles. - **Icons, notes and your language** (Available in the beta): Ask for an icon by name; tell Alba once how you work; write in any language and Alba answers in yours. - **In the AI assistant you already use** (Available in the beta): Use Alba from the AI assistant you work with, on the plan you already have. - **Voice** (Coming soon): Say “Hey Alba” and describe the change. - **Variants swapped, your team’s library** (Coming soon): Switch a component’s variant by asking; build with your team’s published components and variables. ## Links - [Home](https://alba.ai2.design/): the product, its features, the FAQ and the waitlist - [Full text for AI assistants](https://alba.ai2.design/llms-full.txt): everything above plus the release notes
