Design handoff is never perfect. Pixelay lets me overlay Figma frames on top of the actual website—live or staging—and see discrepancies in seconds. It’s faster than screenshot diffs and far more accurate than eyeballing.

How it works

Connect Pixelay to your Figma file, open the browser extension, and choose the frame you want to compare. The plugin overlays it on the current page with adjustable transparency, diff modes, and pixel heatmaps. Even a 2px shift becomes obvious.

Fix issues before QA escalates

Developers can check alignment themselves, product managers can review builds without hunting for differences, and designers get confidence that the shipped UI matches what was approved.

Comparison workflow tip

Publish the frames through Pixelay.
Share the comparison link with engineering or open it yourself during QA.
Annotate any mismatches directly in Pixelay or capture screenshots for tickets.

It turns design-vs-build comparisons into a quick routine instead of a painful chore.
