ProtoPie

DESIGN
Velocity3.8

High-fidelity interactive prototyping tool for mobile, desktop and IoT design.

ProtoPie opens an MCP server, putting agents inside the prototyping tool.

Current state
Version 10.3.0 ships ProtoPie MCP in beta, following a 10.x line that has been steadily about AI inside Studio. Version 10.0.0 introduced ProtoPie AI in beta, generating triggers, responses, and logic from natural language, alongside inline annotation blocks and a redesigned formula editor with error detection. The 10.1.2 release was consolidation on that base — response reliability, onboarding, AI availability extended to the China region, and Figma element conversion into editable states. The feed itself is noisy, repeating the 10.1.2 release across several rows with differing levels of detail.
Where it's heading
The arc from 10.0.0 to 10.3.0 is a tool teaching itself to be driven by something other than a designer's cursor. Natural-language generation of interaction logic came first, Figma conversion reduced the cost of getting existing design work in, and an MCP server exposes the prototype to external agents. Release notes for the newest versions are thin — 10.3.0 is a single line — so the shape of the MCP surface is not yet visible in the changelog.
Prediction
MCP in beta usually precedes documentation of what it actually exposes; whether agents can read a prototype's state or author triggers and responses is the question the entries do not yet answer. Given the Figma conversion work, the likely direction is agents that assemble interaction logic from imported design files rather than only inspecting finished pies.

    ProtoPie 10.3.0 ships ProtoPie MCP in beta

    ⚡ SPARK

    The 10.x line has been about generating interaction logic from language; this opens the same surface to outside agents rather than the in-app assistant. The note is a single line, so the capability is announced rather than described.

    Version 10.2.0

    The 10.2.0 row carries an event registration promo rather than release notes, so what shipped in this version is not visible in the feed. Recorded for completeness; no product detail can be drawn from it.

    ProtoPie 10.1.2: AI reliability, China availability, Figma-to-states conversion

    The fullest account of 10.1.2: AI response reliability, better onboarding, AI extended to the China region, faster AI interactions, Figma element conversion to editable states, and a refreshed AI panel. Consolidation on the ProtoPie AI beta introduced in 10.0.0 rather than new capability, with the Figma conversion the most consequential piece.

    ProtoPie Version 10.1.2

    Another duplicate 10.1.2 row restating the release date and supported platforms. The feed emits several rows per version, which inflates entry counts without adding detail.
