Figma vs live website

Compare Figma designs with live websites automatically.

layernote measures the live page against the design values in your Figma file and lists every difference in color, type, spacing and layout, pinned to the element with the expected value next to the actual one. Available now in Studio and Team.

Import the design. Point at the page. layernote measures the rest.

01Import from Figma

Paste your Figma file link and pick the frames. layernote reads what every element should be, straight from the file.

02Link the live page

Give every page its live URL. layernote loads it at the exact width of each frame and reads what the browser rendered.

03Compare and decide

One click per page. Every difference comes back with both values; tick the ones that matter and they pin onto the element.

Measured, not eyeballed. Every value from the file and the page.

Design values from Figma

layernote reads the file itself, not a screenshot of it: colors, the full type stack, auto-layout padding and gaps, radii, borders and shadows.

Computed styles from the page

The live URL loads at the frame’s exact width and layernote reads what the browser rendered, after the cascade, the webfonts and the media queries.

Responsive breakpoints

Desktop, tablet and mobile are separate comparisons against separate frames. A gap that only breaks on phones is found on the mobile run.

Element matching

Each design layer is paired with the page element it most likely became, using text, position, size and structure. Unsure pairs are labelled as such.

Tolerances

A difference below the tolerance is not a finding. By default that is two ΔE units of color, one pixel of font size and two pixels of spacing.

Part of Studio and Team

Design comparison is included in the Studio and Team plans, with no cap on how many comparisons you run.

What it catches

Every difference, measured.

Every finding is a measurement: expected from the design, actual from the page, and the size of the gap. Deltas the eye cannot see are filtered out by the tolerances.

  • Colors that drifted from the palette
  • Font sizes, weights and letter spacing
  • Padding, gaps and vertical rhythm
  • Border and corner radius changes

Resolve

Found, fixed, and verified.

The difference is only done when the live page proves it.

  • Accepted findings flow to Claude Code, Codex or Cursor over MCP, with the selector, the screenshot and the expected value.
  • After a fix deploys, layernote re-captures the page and re-runs the same comparison.
  • Add the deploy webhook to your pipeline and every release re-verifies the open findings.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Still have a question? Reach out.

Yes. Create a website project, paste the link to your Figma file, pick the frames, and run Compare to live per page and device. layernote reads the design values from the file and the rendered styles from the page and lists every difference it finds, with the expected value next to the actual one.

Color, typography, spacing, layout shifts, borders and corner radii, shadows, images and icons that differ, and elements from the design that are missing on the page. Every finding is a measurement with the expected value from Figma and the actual value from the live page.

A screenshot diff compares pixels, so one reflowed line lights up everything below it and a color one shade off disappears in the noise. layernote compares properties: it knows which element changed, which property, by how much, and what the value should be. That is also why a coding agent can act on a finding and why the same check can verify the fix.

No. Colors are compared in a perceptual color space and every property has a tolerance; on the default sensitivity a color delta under two ΔE units or a spacing delta under two pixels is not a finding. You also review everything before it becomes an annotation.

Yes. Each page holds a desktop, tablet and mobile frame, and each device is compared on its own against the page rendered at that width. A difference that only shows on phones is found on the mobile run and pinned there.

Not for the comparison. Every finding is a deterministic measurement: the same design and the same page always produce the same result. AI enters afterwards, if you want it to: your coding agent can pull the findings over MCP and fix them.

Yes. After a fix deploys, layernote re-captures the page and re-runs the comparison, and the finding only resolves when the difference is gone. Your agent can ask for this per finding, and the deploy webhook runs it for every open finding on every release.
