Chordio Core Features
Real-time design QA
Chordio provides instant feedback on design issues as they arise, allowing teams to catch problems early when they're cheapest to fix. This feature ensures that designs adhere to established standards before they reach development.
Figma Plugin
The Chordio Figma plugin allows designers to run checks directly within their Figma files. It reviews variable and component usage, ensuring that files are dev-ready and reducing back-and-forth over specs.
Chrome Extension
With the Chordio Chrome extension, teams can test any web page to catch issues that can't be verified in Figma. This ensures that live implementations meet design standards.
Automated Test Case Generation
Chordio automatically links your design guidelines to test cases, turning loose heuristics into clear, actionable checks. As your standards evolve, tests update automatically, reducing manual maintenance.
Team Onboarding & Learning
Chordio helps new team members ramp up quickly with automated guidance on design standards. It also turns every review into a learning opportunity with actionable feedback.
Chordio Use Cases
Early Issue Detection
Design teams use Chordio to catch accessibility violations, inconsistent component usage, and UX writing errors early in the design process, preventing costly fixes later.
Streamlined Dev Handoff
Chordio ensures that Figma files are fully compliant with design standards before they're handed off to developers, reducing back-and-forth and speeding up the development cycle.
Team Training & Consistency
New team members use Chordio's automated guidance to quickly learn and adhere to design standards, while seasoned designers benefit from continuous learning through actionable feedback.
