Penwright
Penwright × Figma

Dictate Figma, don't type it.

Annotate designs, label flows, leave reviewer feedback, without context-switching to a keyboard.

Penwright dictating into Figma

Why it works

Figma is a mouse-first canvas, which makes typed feedback awkward. Penwright gives you a voice channel: float over a frame, hold the shortcut, leave a thought. The comment is clean, the design conversation stays in flow.

You say

this empty state needs more breathing room and the cta should be primary not secondary because its the main action

Penwright writes

This empty state needs more breathing room. The CTA should be primary, not secondary. It's the main action on the screen.

In the wild

Three moments in Figma where Penwright pays for itself.

The quick reply

Press the hotkey, speak the reply, Penwright types it cleanly into the open Figma window. Three seconds instead of three minutes.

The long-form message

Three minutes of speaking turn into a structured Figma message, cleaned, with paragraphs, in the right tone. No typing cramp.

The recurring template

Save your Figma standard replies as snippets, expand them by voice. The local dictionary learns your names, companies, acronyms.

Day one: setting Penwright up for Figma.

  1. Install Penwright

    macOS 13 or later. Grab the .dmg from the download page, drop it in Applications, open.

  2. Pick your hotkey

    Default is ⌘⇧Space. If Spotlight is in the way, set a conflict-free shortcut right away.

  3. Seed your Figma dictionary

    Drop in the names, companies, codenames that show up in your daily Figma threads. Penwright will get them right from day one.

  4. Dictate your first Figma message

    Open Figma, click into a text field, hold the hotkey, speak. Release. The cleaned version lands in the field.

Frequently asked

Does Penwright work in Figma?
Yes. Penwright types wherever your cursor lands in a text field, including Figma. There's no separate Figma integration; Penwright uses macOS' standard text insertion.
Are my Figma messages sent to the cloud?
No. Transcription and cleanup run locally on your Mac (EuroLLM 1.7B with Metal). If you flip Settings → AI & Style to Claude or OpenAI, then yes, but only when you explicitly activate it, and a visible CLOUD badge stays on while it is.
Does Penwright understand Figma-specific jargon?
Decent out of the box, perfect with your own dictionary. Add company names, people names, codenames once in Settings. Penwright will type them correctly into Figma from that moment on.
Do I need a fast internet connection?
No. Once the models are installed, Penwright works offline. Ideal for travel, airports, long calls.

In Figma, typing is the real tax.

Three to four times faster with voice. The math gets uncomfortable fast.
