OpenAI CodexとFigmaがコードからデザインへのシームレスな体験を開始

Key takeaways:

• New Codex to Figma integration helps users move seamlessly between code and the design canvas to iterate and ship products faster.
• The Figma MCP Server connects Codex directly to its design platform and tools like Figma Make and FigJam.
• The new integration expands the partnership between the two companies, which includes the Figma app in ChatGPT, and bringing the latest OpenAI models to Figma’s platform.

OpenAI and Figma are deepening their partnership with a new code-to-design integration that connects Figma directly to Codex. Product builders can easily generate Figma designs from Codex and implement designs from Figma files back into code.

Figma is a design and product development platform that lets teams create, prototype, and iterate on digital products together in real time. Using MCP, an open-source standard that enables AI agents to interface with external data sources, applications, and tools, the Codex to Figma integration supports a faster and smoother way to move from implementation in code to exploration in the design canvas.

The result is a new roundtrip workflow where Figma and OpenAI users can start anywhere, and move forward with speed and attention to craft. Whether a product idea starts from a prompt, in code, or a design, the Figma MCP Server helps connect the best ideas without losing context along the way.

“As the barriers for building software go down, the amount of software created will increase exponentially. It’s no longer about whether you *can* build, but *what* you build and how it stands out,” said Loredana Crisan, Figma’s Chief Design Officer. “With this integration, teams can build on their best ideas—not just their first idea—by combining the best of code with the creativity, collaboration, and craft that comes with Figma’s infinite canvas.”

“This integration makes Codex powerful for a much broader range of builders and businesses because it doesn’t assume you’re ‘a designer’ or ‘an engineer’ first,” said Alexander Embiricos, Codex product lead. “Engineers can iterate visually without leaving their flow, and designers can work closer to real implementation without becoming full-time coders. The boundary between roles starts to soften because the system helps translate between intent and reality continuously.”

The new Codex to Figma integration builds on a strong partnership foundation between both companies. Figma uses OpenAI models in tools across its platform and was one of the first partners to launch a ChatGPT app in 2025. It has also launched ChatGPT Enterprise across its organization to enable AI fluency for its workforce.

Building on Codex momentum

Codex first launched as a CLI in April 2025. Codex brings together the most capable agentic coding models with an intuitive product experience that meet builders and developers where they are—whether via the terminal through the CLI, as an IDE extension, on the web, or most recently, the Codex desktop app for macOS.

The Codex app enables multitasking with agents and automating background workflows through a seamless experience. Connecting Figma to Codex combines the ease of building with code-first workflows with the craft of designing on a collaborative canvas—unlocking a powerful new way for people to build everything from prototypes to production applications.

Builders globally are increasingly turning to Codex as a collaborator, from idea through execution. Over 1 million people use Codex weekly, and Codex usage has increased more than 400% since the start of the year. Everyone from product designers, to data scientists, engineers, researchers, and product builders are using Codex to close the gap from inspiration to application.

Companies like Cisco, NVIDIA, Ramp, and Datadog, are among the global enterprises that have adopted Codex for their workforce, along with startups including Harvey and Sierra.
