What our research says

Figma Make

If your team already designs in Figma, Make is the shortest path from a frame to something clickable with real data, and the generated prototype keeps the file's styles instead of reinventing them. It is not a replacement for Lovable or Bolt when the goal is a deployable product: hosting and a production path are still arriving, and the credit meter is shared with every other AI feature on the seat. Designers validating flows will get the most out of it; engineers wanting a repo to ship will wait for local-codebase mode.

Pros

  • Starts from your own frames and design tokens, so output matches the design file
  • Code is exposed and editable, and the result can be copied back to the canvas
  • Attachments, voice prompts, MCP connectors and a Payload CMS come built in
  • No separate subscription - it rides on a Full seat you may already pay for

Cons

  • AI credits are shared across all of Figma's AI features on the seat, so heavy Make use eats the monthly pool
  • Local-codebase and production shipping are 'coming soon', not here
  • Requires the $16 Full seat; cheaper Dev and Collab seats are not listed as including it
  • Pricing page does not state Make access or limits for the free Starter plan

Replit

The most complete build-and-ship-from-a-browser setup available, but the pricing model shifted underneath it — you are buying a credit balance, and the agent decides how fast it drains.

Pros

  • Agent, database, hosting and deploy live in one account with no local install
  • The free Starter tier still allows a published project
  • Credits carry a stated dollar value, so overage arithmetic is at least legible
  • $20/month entry price is low for everything bundled in

Cons

  • Effort-based overage makes the bill unknowable in advance
  • The included $25 of credits on Core goes quickly on agent-heavy work
  • Monthly billing is priced above the annual rate on every tier
  • No public API for driving the agent programmatically

  • Non-engineers turning an idea into a deployed, hosted application
  • Developers prototyping without touching any local setup
