Real User Scenarios
See how Clearly solves common frustrations with Figma AI
Illustrator
The problem with Figma AI
You need original vector illustrations for a project. Figma AI can adjust existing designs but can't generate artwork from a text description.
The Clearly solution
Describe your illustration to Clearly — "a cat astronaut floating in space, line art style" — and get a complete vector artwork in seconds. Edit it on canvas.
Solo Designer
The problem with Figma AI
Figma's team pricing ($15-75/editor/month) is expensive for a solo creative. You need design + illustration but not the full Figma workflow.
The Clearly solution
Clearly combines canvas editing with AI generation at a solo-friendly price. Create, iterate, and export — no need for a full enterprise design tool.
Brand Builder
The problem with Figma AI
You want your design tool to understand and remember your brand's visual identity across projects. Figma AI doesn't learn your preferences.
The Clearly solution
Clearly's AI companion evolves with you. It remembers your brand colors, preferred styles, and past decisions — becoming a true creative partner.
About Figma AI
Figma AI adds generative features to Figma's design tool, but as plugins and features within an existing workflow.
Figma is the industry standard for UI design, and its AI features are expanding. But Figma AI is additive — it assists within Figma's existing paradigm of frames, components, and prototypes. It doesn't generate vector illustrations from scratch. The AI features focus on renaming layers, generating placeholder text, and suggesting design adjustments. For creating original artwork, illustrations, or expressive SVG art, Figma AI is limited. It also has no persistent AI companion or voice input.

- •Collaborative editing
- •Component system

Figma AI Cons
- •AI is assistive, not generative for art
