Nrova StudioEarly
Sketch where your team already works
A design canvas inside Nrova — frames, auto-layout, live cursors, comments, version history, and AI that can draft a whole mobile screen from a sentence. It's not Figma yet. It's not trying to be. It's Studio, and we're building it in public. Pro and Enterprise; missing features included free of charge.
Real tools, not a landing-page mockup
Studio is young, but you can ship actual work in it today — especially if your bar is “good enough to align the team” rather than “pixel-perfect design-system cosplay.”
Projects & files
Organize work into projects with folders and files. Favorites, search, and a browser that feels like home — because it lives next to Boards, Docsite, and the rest of your org.
Frames, shapes & text
Draw frames, rectangles, ellipses, triangles, stars, and text on an infinite canvas. Resize, rotate, and layer things like you'd expect. (Yes, we checked. Twice.)
Auto-layout
Stack and row layouts with padding, gaps, hug/fill sizing, and wrap — the Figma-shaped parts of your brain can relax a little.
Pages & snap guides
Multiple pages per file with dividers and section headers. Snap to grid, smart distance guides, and constraints when you resize the parent. Less nudging, more designing.
Real-time togetherness
See who's in the file, follow their cursors, and watch edits land live. Collaboration avatars in the top bar — the polite kind, not the "who touched my frame" kind.
Comments & annotations
Pin comments on the canvas, thread replies, resolve when done. Annotations for the "what if we moved this?" conversations that don't deserve a Slack thread.
Version history
Snapshots when you need to rewind. Not quite git for pixels, but close enough to undo that bold gradient phase.
AI screen generation
Describe a mobile screen in plain English; Studio builds a structured layout you can edit. Costs AI credits — cheaper than hiring your past self from 2 a.m.
Images & components
Drop images onto the canvas, crop them in place, and turn selections into reusable components with instances. Design systems: baby edition.
The honest roadmap
We'd rather tell you what's missing than let you discover it mid-sprint. These are coming — order subject to caffeine levels and customer feedback.
Prototyping & interactions
Tap this → go there. We want it too. For now, describe the flow in a comment and we'll pretend it's interactive.
Export to code
Dev Mode shows structure today; React/Vue/SwiftUI export is on the list. Until then, developers will continue squinting at screenshots. We apologize.
Figma import
Drag a .fig file and watch it appear. Not yet. Copy-paste and rebuild is the current cardio program.
Plugins & extensibility
Third-party superpowers come later. Right now the plugin is us, shipping at 2× speed and drinking too much coffee.
FigJam-style whiteboarding
Sticky notes, freehand, workshop mode. Brainstorm here with frames today; sticky-note chaos is queued behind "make the canvas faster."
Design tokens at scale
Variables, themes, and token sync across files. Published libraries are a start — the full token orchestra is still tuning up.
Early adopters: your feedback literally decides what we build next. Find Studio in the dashboard sidebar on Pro or Enterprise — and tell us what broke. We mean that affectionately.
Design next to delivery
Tickets in Boards. Specs in Docsite. Contracts in Sign. Studio sits in the same org, same permissions, same search — so your mockups aren't orphaned in another tab with another login.
One workspace
No extra seat on a separate design tool bill. Studio rides along with Pro and Enterprise — the same plan that already unlocks HR, Sign, Docsite, and the rest of the suite.
MCP-friendly
Dev Mode and MCP context panels expose file structure for agents that need to read your screens — handy when Noah (or your own tooling) should know what you're designing.
AI that edits, not replaces
Generate a screen, then push pixels yourself. AI output lands as real nodes you can select, nudge, and argue with — not a flat image stuck on the canvas.
Frequently asked questions
- What is Nrova Studio?
- Nrova Studio is a product design canvas built into your Nrova workspace. You get projects and files, frames and shapes, auto-layout, multiple pages, real-time cursors, comments, annotations, version history, components, and AI screen generation. It is an early release — many features you'd expect from a mature design tool are still on the roadmap.
- How much does Nrova Studio cost?
- Studio is included in Pro ($4.99 per user per month) and Enterprise ($9.99 per user per month), each with a 7-day free trial. The free plan includes Boards only.
- Is Studio ready for production design work?
- Studio is useful today for aligning teams, drafting mobile screens, and iterating in the same workspace as Boards and Docsite — especially with live collaboration and AI generation. It is not a full replacement for a mature standalone design tool yet: prototyping, Figma import, and deep design-token workflows are still in progress.
- Does AI screen generation use credits?
- Yes. Generating a screen with AI consumes organization AI credits from the same shared pool as other Nrova AI features. You preview the layout before it is applied to your page, and the result is editable nodes — not a flat image.

Studio is early, a little rough, and weirdly fun. Pro and Enterprise get access today — bring tolerance for changelog energy and we'll bring the features.
