Accelerating Your Website Improvement with AI Prototyping

Waiting months to see a working version of a new website is a thing of the past. Businesses today need to move faster. We help you accelerate your website project by quickly transforming your ideas into dynamic, interactive experiences. With the revolutionary Figma Make, we’ve created a seamless pipeline from initial design to a functional prototype, offering a powerful advantage for your next web project.

At Atlantic BT, we leverage Figma’s robust ai prototyping features and collaborative environment to transform your website ideas into dynamic, interactive experiences. This allows us to visualize complex user journeys, test usability, and iterate with unprecedented speed. With the revolutionary Figma Make, we’ve created a seamless pipeline from initial design to a functional website prototype, offering a powerful advantage for your next web project.

Why Figma Excels for Website Prototyping

Figma isn’t just a design tool; it’s a prototyping tool that enhances your design communication in the following ways:

  • Visualize Comprehensive User Journeys: Map out intricate user flows and visually confirm how users will navigate your entire site. This approach helps identify and rectify potential friction points early on.
  • De-Risk Your Investment: Our ability to map out intricate user flows and test interactive prototypes with target users helps identify and fix potential friction points early on. This drastically reduces the costly revisions and delays that can derail a website project later in the development cycle.
  • Accelerate Time-to-Launch: We share interactive prototypes with your stakeholders and target users to facilitate rapid, iterative feedback. This agile approach, powered by Figma’s user-friendly interface, allows for swift adjustments and continuous improvement, ensuring your new website gets to market faster.
  • Enhance Communication: A functional prototype is miles better than static visuals, clearly demonstrating design intent, interactions, and animations to developers and other team members, minimizing misinterpretations.

Conduct Authentic Usability Testing: Perform realistic user tests directly on your Figma prototypes. Observe user behavior, pinpoint usability challenges, and ensure your website’s design is intuitive and efficient.

The Game-Changer: AI Prototyping with Figma Make

Figma Make represents a monumental leap in the prototyping workflow. This AI-driven, prompt-to-app tool fundamentally changes how designers can bring their visions to life, making the creation of functional prototypes and web apps more accessible and faster than ever before.

  • From Concept to Functional Prototype with AI: Figma Make allows you to describe your desired functionality using natural language prompts. You can even import existing Figma designs or images, and Make will generate a functional prototype, complete with code, saving countless hours of manual work. This is ideal for quickly transforming proposals and ideas into tangible, interactive experiences.
  • AI-Assisted Conversational Iteration: The power of Figma Make lies in its conversational interface. You can continuously refine your prototype by simply chatting with the AI, instructing it to change layouts, add features, or adjust interactions. This iterative prompting allows for rapid exploration of different design solutions and helps you explore a variety of solutions for a problem that we are trying to solve.
  • Direct Code Generation: Figma Make doesn’t just create a visual prototype; it generates actual code for your functional prototype or web app. This bridges the gap between design and development like never before, offering our developers a significant head start and helping to ensure design specifications are accurately translated into code.
  • Point and Edit Functionality: Beyond conversational prompts, Figma Make provides a “Point and edit” tool. This allows us to directly select elements within the generated prototype preview and instruct the AI to make specific changes, offering granular control over the output. Depending on the element, we can modify properties like colors, padding, margins, and text styling. We can also dive into the generated code for direct adjustments if needed, providing flexibility for our developers.
  • Testing and Validation on Real Functionality: With Figma Make, the prototypes we make aren’t just clickable; they’re functional. This enables more realistic user testing scenarios, allowing us to validate not just the aesthetics and flow, but also the underlying behavior of our proposed website features.

Elevate Your Design Process with Figma Prototyping and Figma Make

Mastering prototyping in Figma is an essential skill that empowers us to create immersive and functional website experiences. With the arrival of Figma Make, the barrier between design and functional code is significantly lowered, accelerating our workflow and expanding the possibilities of what we can achieve. By effectively utilizing Figma’s traditional prototyping features alongside the groundbreaking capabilities of Figma Make, we design, test, and refine our web projects with efficiency and confidence, crafting the best possible product for our clients.
