FAQs
What is the best AI tool for UX/UI designers?
Figma AI is the natural overall shortlist for teams already designing in Figma. Relume and Uizard are useful for early structure, while v0 helps bridge interface ideas and implementation.
Can AI replace user research?
No. AI can organize approved notes and suggest hypotheses, but it cannot substitute for representative participants, observed behavior, accessibility testing, or product judgment.
How should designers evaluate generated interfaces?
Review usability, accessibility, responsive behavior, content accuracy, design-system fit, technical feasibility, and whether the pattern solves a validated user need.
