FigmaToTickets
A one-click Figma-to-backlog tool for solo founders that imports a design file and produces a hierarchical Jira or Linear backlog with epics, stories, tasks, and acceptance criteria, ready to assign to a dev contractor.
non-technical founders with a finished Figma prototype who need to hand a buildable spec to a freelance developer
- OAuth Figma import that reads every screen, component, and state in the file
- Auto-grouping into epics by app section like Onboarding, Settings, and Profile
- Story-level acceptance criteria drafts that cite the exact screen frames
- Export to Jira, Linear, Notion, or CSV with one click plus per-sprint capacity suggestions
arXiv research shows AI can now draft backlogs from mockups with 52 to 66 percent F1, which is good enough for founder review and polish and dramatically cuts the I-have-designs-but-no-spec barrier to building.
