Craftwork 7 is the biggest update we've shipped since launching in 2018. Four new features that change how you find, browse, and use design assets. Whether you code with AI tools, design in Figma, or look for visual references, Craftwork now fits directly into your workflow. No more switching tabs, downloading full packs, or generating generic AI visuals.

We've spent months rebuilding how Craftwork works. The goal was simple: make it faster to go from idea to finished project using real, human-made design assets. Craftwork 7 brings four major features that cover the full creative workflow.
Here's everything that's new.
MCP Server
The Model Context Protocol is an open standard for connecting AI tools to external data sources. We built an MCP Server that gives your AI coding environment direct access to the entire Craftwork library.
How it works. Install the server, connect through OAuth, and start searching. Type what you need in plain language. The server returns relevant assets with full metadata: format, dimensions, color palette, style. Your AI tool picks the best match and attaches it to your project.
Compatible tools: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, Zed, and any MCP-compatible platform.
This is for developers and designers who build with AI but want their projects to look professional, not generic.
Figma Plugin
Switching between Craftwork and Figma used to mean opening a browser, finding the asset, downloading it, importing it, and placing it on canvas. That workflow is gone.
The Figma Plugin puts the full Craftwork library inside your design tool. Browse assets by category. Search by keyword. Preview what you need. Click once to insert it directly onto your canvas. No downloads. No file management. No context switching.
This works for every asset type: illustrations, mockups, backgrounds, UI elements, icons. Everything available in Craftwork is available in the plugin.
If you design in Figma daily, this saves real time on every project.
Asset Catalog
Before this update, Craftwork worked like most design marketplaces. You found a pack, downloaded the whole thing, and then dug through files to find the one asset you actually needed.
The Asset Catalog changes that. Every single asset in our library is now browsable individually. You can filter by style, format, color, and category. Find one illustration, one mockup, one background. Copy it. Move on.
The numbers: 230+ illustrations, 234+ mockups, 156+ backgrounds, 352+ UI elements across the full library of 15,000+ resources. Everything is organized, tagged, and searchable.
This is especially useful when you need one specific piece for a project, not an entire collection.
Inspiration
Good design starts with good references. We built an Inspiration section with two parts.
Curated Websites. A handpicked collection of real websites selected for design quality, interaction, and layout. Use it for research, mood boards, or competitive analysis before starting a project. Every site is reviewed and added by our team.
Landing Sections. Individual page sections pulled from well-designed websites. Hero blocks, feature sections, pricing tables, footers. Browse them by type and use them as starting points for your own layouts.
Both collections update regularly. New sites and sections are added every week.
Launch Day Offer
We're celebrating the Craftwork 7 release with 25% off Pro Access. That includes unlimited downloads, commercial use rights, and full access to the MCP Server, Figma Plugin, Asset Catalog, and Inspiration.
