Claude Design vs Google Stitch vs Figma MCP — Where Do They Fit in Your Workflow?

With the release of Claude Design, Google Stitch, and Figma MCP, designers are confused right now.
Many are claiming that Figma is dead and that design workflows are changing forever — but that’s not the full picture. In this video, I compare Claude Design, Google Stitch, and the Figma MCP workflow using Claude to go beyond the hype and bring clarity. Each of these tools serves a different purpose, and understanding where they fit in the design process is what actually empowers designers — not replacing one tool with another.
This is where the concept of **Vibe to Vector** comes in — a term I coined to describe the real superpower designers need in the AI era.
Designers don’t want to vibe to code — they want to vibe to vector.
AI tools like Claude Design and Google Stitch are powerful for exploration and idea generation. But beyond the discovery stage, the Figma MCP integration with Claude enables something much deeper: the ability to generate real vector designs directly inside Figma using your design system.
By connecting your components, styles, and tokens, Figma MCP allows AI agents to create designs that designers can actually control, refine, and evolve — not just generate.
