Overview

GPT Mate is a free Figma and FigJam plugin that generates and rewrites design copy directly inside a working file. Porto, Portugal-based product studio Refire Design, founded in 2022, built the plugin as a side project pairing ChatGPT with Figma's canvas.

The plugin adds three core actions, Create, Rewrite, and Custom, backed by more than 20 built-in prompts and roughly 500 additional prompt variations tuned for design copy, letting designers generate headline or body text options without leaving Figma to open a separate ChatGPT tab. It connects directly to OpenAI's API using a key the user supplies, which Figma stores locally in client storage rather than on Refire Design's servers.

Designers and product teams drafting UI copy, marketing text, or placeholder content inside Figma files are the intended users. The plugin itself is entirely free to install from the Figma Community; the only cost is usage on the user's own OpenAI API key, billed directly by OpenAI rather than through Refire Design.

Pros & cons

Pros

Free to install with no subscription layered on top
Keeps designers inside Figma instead of switching to a separate ChatGPT tab
Local API key storage limits third-party access to a user's OpenAI credentials
Built-in prompt library covers common copy tasks without prompt-writing from scratch

Cons

Requires a separate paid OpenAI API key to function at all
Limited to text generation, not full design or layout automation
Small studio behind it means slower updates than a funded competitor
No built-in usage tracking, so API costs can surprise users without monitoring
