GO Law is leading a class action lawsuit against Figma—a major tech company whose platform is used by millions of professionals to create, store, and collaborate on creative assets—for its unauthorized use of customer intellectual property to train its commercial AI products.
The lawsuit alleges that Figma accessed, analyzed, and extracted customers’ confidential creative assets to train its AI tools without consent.
What Figma Did
Beginning in 2024, Figma introduced a suite of AI products—including Figma AI, Make, and Buzz—designed to generate user interfaces, design systems, workflows, code, and similar creative assets.
The lawsuit alleges that Figma unlawfully changed the “default setting” for millions of user accounts to opt them into giving consent for Figma to use their personal data to train its AI models, and then failed to give users fair notice of its intentions.
In August 2024, Figma allegedly fed troves of its customers’ valuable intellectual property into its AI models so that Figma could profitably use that data to provide its other customers (including the plaintiff’s and class members’ commercial competitors) with similar digital assets.
