"The automation from design to code with Specify is incredibly powerful. The ability to reference the same tokens and assets in Figma — and in our codebase — saves us an incredible amount of time, while reducing manual, error-prone work.”
Romain
Developer
"QA used to take a lot of time between deploying in different environments, checking names and values, and deploying in production. Now we can use this time for other tasks with more business value and are more enjoyable."
Alexis Oney
Lead Frontend Developer
"Configuring a new project used to take a whole day. Now it's a 1 or 2 hour process. From now on, we start all our new projects with Specify which gives our team more time to focus on what really matters: specific work for our clients."

"Specify brought us confidence and ease of mind. Before, we used to be cautious and hesitant before updating our design tokens. We're now confident about updating a token, rolling back to a previous version, or even trying new ones."
