Most designers treat AI tools as a shortcut. That’s why their output still looks like a first draft.
Figma Make isn’t fast because it skips steps, it’s fast because it collapses the gap between thinking and building.
I’ve been using it to go from strategy straight to ready prototypes. That changes how you scope. How you price. How much revision you take in.
I broke down exactly how I use it in a walkthrough for Contra University

Why not approach a pitch deck… the way you approach a website? 🤔
Without realising it, I applied the same design logic behind websites to my pitch deck showing my services.
It helped me create a better flow with:
• Clear hierarchy
• 1-2 goals per page/section
• Structured journey
In this example, I focused on pulling attention quickly (credibility first), then guiding through services in a way that feels natural and easy to scan.
Using Figma to wireframe the slides is my approach with the grids and components.
Tip: If a slide is trying to say too much, it’s probably not doing its job.
What’s the hardest part of building a deck for you?
Super insightful! Definitely going to apply

It all starts with strategy —
and grows into a visual system.
Our work for Specialty Coffee Cosmetics COCO began with clarity:
defining positioning, tone, and the deeper narrative behind the brand.
From there, the visual language emerged —
not as decoration, but as a natural extension of meaning.
Brand is not what you design first.
It’s what you understand first.
Then you build.
