# Design Tools
For templated, brand-consistent work where AI generation is overkill or too unpredictable.
Prefer the team's existing tools and editable assets. Choose by task rather than introducing a new subscription or integration.
## Canva
| Task | Practical route |
| --- | --- |
| Product UI or documentation screenshot | Browser screenshot tooling or the existing capture tool; show the real UI. |
| Asset tied to a design system | Existing Figma components and export workflow; use the applicable Figma skill when interacting with Figma. |
| Repeated banners or social graphics | Existing Canva or Figma template; verify current export and resize capabilities before relying on them. |
| Dynamic link-preview images | Existing framework or build-time template renderer. |
| Resize, crop, or compression | Installed image pipeline or utility; preserve source files. |
Best for non-designers who need polished output fast.
- **Strengths:** Massive template library, brand kit, Magic Resize (one design → all sizes), team collaboration
- **Best for:** Social graphics, presentations, email headers, simple banners
- **Limitations:** Less control than Figma, templates can look generic
- **Agent-friendliness:** Has an API but limited — better as a human-in-the-loop tool
## Figma
Best for teams with design systems or pixel-perfect needs.
- **Strengths:** Design system components, auto layout, developer handoff, plugins
- **Best for:** OG images via templates, design system assets, complex layouts
- **Limitations:** Steeper learning curve, requires design skill
- **Agent-friendliness:** Has an API and MCP server for reading designs
## When to Use Design Tools vs. AI Generation
| Scenario | Design Tool | AI Generation |
|----------|:-:|:-:|
| Exact brand guidelines must be followed | Yes | Maybe (with strong ref images) |
| Need 20 size variants of one design | Yes (Canva Magic Resize) | No |
| Unique hero image for a blog post | No | Yes |
| Recurring social media template | Yes | No |
| Product mockup with real UI | No (use screenshots) | No (hallucinated UI) |
| Abstract/creative visual | No | Yes |
Keep editable originals, export only needed variants, and inspect font rendering, transparency, cropping, and file size. Use `technical-research` before depending on a tool API or version-specific feature.
