Figma prices by seat type rather than by plan alone. On Professional, a Full seat costs $16 a month billed yearly or $20 monthly, a Dev seat $12 or $15, and a Collab seat $3 or $5; Organization ($55, $25 and $5) and Enterprise ($90, $35 and $5) are billed yearly only. Each seat carries AI credits, 3,000 a month with a Professional Full seat and 500 with Dev or Collab, and add-ons are available on every plan. The free Starter plan includes unlimited drafts and up to 500 AI credits a month for Figma Make, the Figma agent and other AI tools.
โBest for: Product designers, design systems teams and developers who need shared, precise interface design with prototyping and handoff
โSkip if: You mainly make social graphics, posters or quick presentations, where Canva is faster, or only one person ever designs and others just comment

Seats, not plans, set the bill
Figma sells four plans: Starter, Professional, Organization and Enterprise. The price, though, depends on which seat each person gets. The difference between seats is large enough that assigning everyone the same one is the most common way teams overpay.
Euro prices from October 1, 2026; the dollar prices use the same numbers.

Organization and Enterprise are billed yearly only. Take a team of three designers, four developers and ten reviewers on Professional. The right mix costs $126 a month billed yearly, while Full seats for all seventeen people would cost $272.
AI credits ride along with each seat
Every seat brings AI credits for Figma Make and the other AI tools. Full seats carry most of them, 3,000 a month on Professional. Dev and Collab seats get 500, and the free Starter plan allows 150 a day, up to 500 a month. When those run out, teams can buy shared credit add-ons, either pay-as-you-go or on a subscription. In October 2026 the pricing page advertised twice the add-on credits on Professional and 1.6 times on Organization and Enterprise.
The practical effect: heavy AI users need Full seats or an add-on, and reviewers on Collab seats can still try AI features without costing more.
Make, the agent and MCP
Figma's AI in 2026 has three parts. Figma Make turns prompts or existing designs into working prototypes and web apps. A beta connects it to your local codebase, so changes can end up as a pull request. The Figma agent sits on the canvas, where it generates design directions and image edits. It can also search your files and build generative plugins on request. Weave tools, also in beta, package AI models into ready-made workflows for images and vectors, and for video as well.
The MCP server connects Figma to coding agents. It hands components, variables and layout from your design system to tools such as Claude Code or Cursor. Those agents can also create or modify Figma content. Going the other way, Figma can turn live UI back into editable layers so designers review what actually shipped. For product teams already building with AI coding tools, this is the feature that keeps Figma at the center of the workflow.
When Figma is more than you need
Figma is built for interface design and design systems, and its learning curve reflects that. Marketing teams making social posts, flyers or decks get there faster in Canva, which our Figma vs Canva comparison covers. Teams generating images rather than designing layouts will find more in Adobe Firefly or Midjourney. For everything that becomes an app or a website, Figma remains the default canvas.
Yes. The Starter plan is free with unlimited drafts, UI kits and templates, and 150 AI credits a day up to 500 a month for AI features such as Figma Make. Paid seats add unlimited files and projects, shared libraries, team collaboration and more AI credits; students and educators can apply for free access through Figma's education program.
What is the difference between Full, Dev and Collab seats?
A Full seat gets every Figma product, from design and Figma Make to Sites and Slides, and the largest AI credit allowance. A Dev seat covers Dev Mode, FigJam and Slides for developers who inspect designs and write code. A Collab seat covers FigJam, Slides and commenting for people who review but don't design.
What are Figma AI credits?
A monthly allowance for Figma's AI features, attached to each seat: 3,000 with a Professional Full seat, 3,500 on Organization and 4,250 on Enterprise, and 500 with any Dev or Collab seat. Teams can buy shared AI credit add-ons, either pay-as-you-go or as a subscription, and Figma's pricing page said in October 2026 that add-ons now come with twice the credits on Professional.
What is Figma Make?
Figma's prompt-to-app tool. You describe an idea or start from an existing design, and Make builds a working prototype or web app that you can keep editing with prompts or by hand. A beta lets Make work on your local codebase and open a pull request, so changes can ship to production.
Does Figma have an MCP server?
Yes. Figma's MCP server delivers design context, such as components, variables and layouts from your design system, to AI coding agents, and can create or modify Figma content from them. It is the link between Figma files and tools like Claude Code, Cursor or Copilot.
