Design, train and interact with AI visually

Figment is a modular, node-based app that lets artists and researchers build custom AI projects without writing code.

Build AI workflows visually

Drag nodes for dataset preparation, augmentation, visual processing, and real-time inference onto the canvas to sketch ideas quickly and iterate in seconds.

Training & inference built in

Use pre-made MediaPipe models or bring your own TensorFlow.js and ONNX models. Train, fine-tune and run them live with minimal latency.

Optimised for realtime

Every node is GPU-accelerated for ultra-low latency. Connect Figment to Ableton Live or any OSC-compatible software for responsive performances and long-running installations.

Extend Figment with code

Go under the hood and build custom nodes that extend Figment's functionality. Use Chrome's handy DevTools to debug issues.
