Scrollify vs Figma
prototype video
Figma is where you design motion and flows before launch. Scrollify captures the live production URL afterward — real fonts, CMS content, pricing, and checkout — so stakeholders see what actually shipped.
When Figma prototype video fits better
- • The product is not live yet
- • You are testing interaction flows with stakeholders
- • Design system motion specs matter more than CMS truth
When Scrollify fits better
- • Marketing needs a clip of the shipped page
- • Pricing, copy, or images changed after design handoff
- • You need GIF/MP4 for ads, email, or Product Hunt without rebuilding frames
Feature comparison
| Capability | Scrollify | Figma prototype / export |
|---|---|---|
| Source of truth | Live production URL | Design file / prototype |
| Real CMS & pricing | Yes, whatever is published | Only if mocked in frames |
| Update after ship | Re-export the URL | Update frames, then re-export video |
| Interaction design | Scroll narrative of the page | Full prototype flows |
| Marketing formats | MP4, GIF, WebM, WebP | Depends on export path |
| Best stage | Post-launch marketing & QA visuals | Pre-launch design review |
They complement each other: design in Figma, prove the live page with Scrollify.
FAQ
- Can Scrollify open a Figma file URL?
- Only if the page is publicly reachable without login. Private Figma files are not a substitute target — export the shipped marketing site instead.
- Why not just export video from Figma?
- Prototype video shows the design intent. Stakeholders often need proof of the live build: real type rendering, third-party widgets, and current pricing tables.
- Do designers still need Figma if we use Scrollify?
- Yes. Scrollify does not replace design tools. It replaces the “record the finished site for marketing” step after engineering ships.
- What about architecture or agency case studies?
- Project microsites change often. Capture the live URL for RFPs and leave-behinds — see our architecture studio guide.
