## What the story says

Shakers uses Figma as the single source of truth for product work, from early exploration in FigJam and mid-fidelity prototypes in Figma Make through design system components, branching and Dev Mode handoff to engineering. It also uses Figma Buzz templates so non-designers can produce on-brand content.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Figma and Shakers, not ours.

> The design-part of a sprint used to take a whole week. Now, it’s just one or two days, which gives us more time to spend on interview analysis, or on thinking through the problem.

- **ten times**: “The team now conducts ten times more user interviews and devotes much more time to research and workshops than before.”
- **three times**: “The result is a faster workflow and outputs that are deemed to be three times better, thanks to fewer bugs and more meaningful user connections.”

> Building everything in the same language is exactly what helps us move fast. When designers and engineers are using the same naming properties and components, the handoff is almost frictionless. That makes us much quicker.
