Design Buddy

What is Design Buddy?

Design Buddy is an AI design assistant that works as a plugin for Figma and Adobe Express. It reviews your interface designs and returns structured feedback on layout, color, typography, and accessibility, scoring each area objectively. The goal is to help you catch design mistakes early, cut down on revision cycles, and ship work with more confidence. It runs on a subscription basis, with plans that include a set number of reviews per month.

Who created Design Buddy?

Design Buddy was created by Zlatko Najdenovski, who also founded Figarc.

What is Design Buddy used for?

Typical uses include:

• Preparing designs for stakeholders and presentations
• Running detailed typography, layout, color, and accessibility checks
• Supporting team collaboration and design reviews
• Polishing work faster before handoff

A demo is available if you want to see the tool in action, and the team accepts feedback and inquiries through support.

Who is Design Buddy for?

It suits anyone involved in the design process: individual designers and professionals, teams of all sizes (especially those running frequent, in-depth reviews), product managers who need to gauge design quality, and clients who want to confirm designs meet standards.
