Alt text is important. Writing it? Not so much. That’s why we’ve unleashed the power of OpenAI to generate descriptive alt text for your uploaded images automatically. Yep, every time you upload a new image, you’ll get thoughtfully crafted alt text that saves you time and keeps your projects inclusive.

Increased Image File size: 

Figma Import Just Got Better

Size matters. We heard your cries (and maybe a few screams) about our previous 5MB file limit, and we said, “Why stop there?” So, we doubled it. You can now upload files up to 10MB, giving you the freedom to bring in higher-quality assets, especially when using our Figma Import tool.
