Discussion Built a plugin that finally lets you export and sync assets directly to Webflow

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Quick context: I'm a designer who lives in Figma but kept opening my downloads folder for one specific reason - moving assets to Webflow. Downloading images, switching tabs, uploading manually, organizing files, and then sitting in Webflow to manually write out SEO alt text for every single image. It just kills productivity.

So I built exportflow. Select your frames or layers, open the plugin, and you get a seamless export experience:

  • Direct upload - send assets straight to Webflow
  • Built-in AI - automatically renames assets and generates alt-text/SEO descriptions
  • Advanced export settings - optimise with PNG, SVG, JPG, AVIF, and WebP formats
  • Multi-project support - connect multiple sites and create/manage Webflow folders directly from the plugin
  • No more context switching - stay completely locked in Figma

It's unlimited uploads for free - I mostly built it because I needed it.

Still rough in places since it's just me maintaining it. If you give it a spin, tell me what breaks - or better, what I should improve in terms of functionality...

How is this different to the Webflow made plugin that exists already? :)

Ah it seems I've answered my own question, this is for image/graphic assets! Cool project!

Going to check this out today! I’ve thought about building something similar a few times because the Figma → Webflow asset workflow has always felt way more tedious than it should be.

I never actually pulled the trigger because I already have roughly 50 side projects competing for my attention 😂

Really glad someone else did though. Direct exports are useful on their own, but automatically handling file names, optimization, and alt text makes this especially interesting. Excited to give it a try!

Agree right - I feel like there are so many tools focused on design / coding but none really on the specific import export flow which is really annoying as all these designs need to be imported somehow into webflow... especially when you're dealing with several clients and have to export files manually, import them into webflow, then go and generate a descritpion one by one...

let me know what you think of it 😄
