Figma debuts Motion Studio and raises $200M to expand generative features

Motion Studio lets designers create micro-interactions and full-screen motion prototypes within Figma, with timeline editing, keyframe interpolation, and export presets for web and mobile. The feature tightly integrates with components so motion states become first-class properties of design systems.

Figma also announced a $200 million capital raise focused on expanding generative and automation features across the product. The investment will underwrite new research into model-powered layout, content generation for design systems, and accessibility automation.

Design teams say Motion Studio reduces handoff friction by enabling product animation to be finalized before engineering handoff. Figma plans to progressively roll out Motion Studio to enterprise customers and open up motion tokens for system-level governance.
