Jelle Bot and Leonarde Zamboni show how Figma Make adds real motion and interactivity to design systems. Instead of static visuals, designers can now present early-stage prototypes that feel alive, helping SaaS teams validate UX and interaction decisions before development.
They discuss how this workflow fits Noco’s productized design approach and why motion design matters for B2B SaaS websites built for performance and clarity.
In this episode:
Why motion and micro animations build trust and clarity for users
How AI powered prototyping speeds up design to dev handoff
Using variables and design systems inside Figma Make
Early testing to align marketing and development teams
Why AI tools enhance, not replace, designers
By turning ideas into interactive prototypes early, teams save time, set clearer expectations, and deliver better websites faster.
