Lolly is not a replacement for Figma, though it does what many people need Figma for: laying out a design, importing one that already exists, and producing a reusable, parameterised output from it.
Where they overlap
Both are design surfaces you can import a file into, and Lolly reads Figma files. Both let you place type, shapes and images on a canvas.
What Figma does better today
Real-time multiplayer at scale (hundreds of simultaneous editors on one file), a mature plugin ecosystem, and interactive prototyping. Figma Buzz now covers bulk asset generation too: it fills templates from a CSV or XLSX, holds guidelines an editor locks and is free in beta (August 2026). For live team design at scale, Figma is the benchmark, and it set that benchmark.
What Lolly does instead
It turns a design into a re-renderable tool that runs offline, needs no account and produces on-brand assets at volume with Content Credentials sealed in (unverified in a stranger's validator until an identity anchors them). The render path has no server in it at all: the same output from a browser tab, the terminal or CI, with the state carried in the URL. Its collaboration is private and peer-to-peer, over an invite you accept, and it works with no internet at all when both devices share a network.
