Extract Design Tokens from a Live Website into Figma
Use website capture to identify real colors, type, spacing, shadows, and reusable UI patterns during design audits.
Design tokens are easier to discuss when the team can see real examples. A live website already contains the colors, type styles, spacing, shadows, and component patterns users experience.
CopyFig helps bring those examples into Figma so a designer can inspect, compare, and turn them into a cleaner system.
Start with representative screens
Capture the pages that show the broadest range of UI: homepage, product page, pricing, dashboard, forms, settings, and error states. Do not start with only the prettiest marketing page.
The goal is not to preserve mess. The goal is to reveal which styles are actually used in production.
Group styles by purpose
After pasting captures into Figma, group colors by role instead of by exact value. Backgrounds, borders, primary actions, danger states, success states, muted text, and brand accents should each have a clear job.
Do the same for typography. Separate display headings, section headings, body copy, labels, captions, and code or numeric text.
Turn observations into decisions
A capture can show that a site uses too many near-identical grays or inconsistent button radii. The design-token work is deciding what stays, what merges, and what disappears.
Use the imported UI as evidence, then build the final tokens intentionally in Figma.
Frequently asked questions
Can CopyFig automatically create a complete design-token system?
No. CopyFig helps capture real UI into Figma. Designers still decide which colors, type styles, and spacing rules become the cleaned-up system.
Is this useful for audits?
Yes. Capturing real UI into Figma makes it faster to compare actual production styles and document inconsistencies.
