Figma Make: Voice-to-Text Prompts, Question Cards, and Zapier Connector

Figma

Figma expanded its AI-powered Make tool on April 30, 2026, introducing a set of usability and workflow improvements. Users can now speak their prompts directly in the Make chat using voice-to-text (microphone access required), replacing the need to type lengthy design instructions. The update also introduces Question Cards β€” a mechanism for Make to proactively ask clarifying questions before generating β€” along with Version History navigation, a Clear Context control, and a new Zapier connector to pipe external data into Make sessions without writing code.


Overview

On April 30, 2026, Figma shipped a meaningful update to Figma Make, its AI-powered prompt-to-prototype tool. The release adds five distinct capabilities that improve how users interact with Make, manage prototype iterations, and integrate external data sources.

Voice-to-Text Prompting

The most visible addition is voice-to-text input in the Make chat. Users can now speak their design briefs directly in the browser, with speech transcribed and inserted into the prompt field automatically. Figma requires microphone permission to be granted before activating the feature. This is especially useful for longer, more detailed prompts β€” the kind that describe interaction states, content hierarchy, or conditional behavior β€” where dictation is faster and more natural than typing. The feature had been actively requested on the Figma Forum since early 2026.

Question Cards

Make now surfaces Question Cards when it determines it needs more information before generating or iterating on a prototype. Rather than proceeding on incomplete context and producing an output that requires correction, Make can pause and ask targeted, structured questions. This follows patterns seen in other AI coding and design tools, and it reduces the number of prompt-and-correct cycles required to reach a satisfactory result β€” particularly valuable when the prompt is open-ended or the design intent is ambiguous.

Version History

The release improves access to Version History within Make projects. In Make, "versions" refer to distinct builds of the prototype rather than file-level saves. The update makes it easier for users to navigate, compare, and restore earlier builds directly from the Make interface, giving teams a clearer audit trail of how a prototype evolved across sessions.

Clear Context

A new Clear Context control allows users to reset the conversation state in Make without abandoning the current project file. This provides a practical reset when a prompt session has gone off-track: the canvas state is preserved while the conversation history is wiped, so fresh instructions can be provided without starting from scratch.

Zapier Connector

Figma introduced a dedicated Zapier connector for Make workflows. This allows teams to bring in external data β€” content from PRDs, spreadsheets, CRM records, or brand guidelines β€” directly into a Make session via Zapier automations, without writing integration code. It extends Make's existing connector ecosystem (which already includes Amplitude, Box, Dovetail, Granola, and zeroheight) and is particularly useful for teams who want prototypes populated with real or realistic content.

Availability

All five features are available in Figma Make as of April 30, 2026. Voice-to-text requires microphone access granted through the browser. The Zapier connector is configured through Make's existing connectors settings.
