Design System Style Guides for Freelancers
UI Vault gives freelance designers a powerful, professional way to deliver design system documentation to clients—without writing code or building custom portals. Sync directly from Figma, organize your components and styles, and present stunning style guides that set you apart.
A brand platform to meet your needs
We are on a mission to create a more beautiful world, one brand at a time. We work with customers from each use case to meet your needs.
The Problem
Freelancers often hand off design files without context, leaving clients with beautiful visuals but no guidance on how to maintain or implement them. Without a system, clients struggle with consistency—and freelancers lose long-term value and trust.
How Brandy Helps
UI Vault lets freelancers turn design files into living, organized systems that clients can easily reference and use. Document colors, components, typography, and spacing with synced Figma blocks, usage notes, and client branding. It’s not just a file handoff—it’s a complete system delivery that makes you look like a one-person agency.

What is UI Vault?
UI Vault is a modern, cloud-based platform for creating, syncing, documenting, and sharing design system style guides—purpose-built for teams working in Figma.
It allows you to pull in components, text styles, colors, and tokens directly from your Figma libraries and organize them into beautiful, structured, collaborative style guides. With support for multi-brand systems, markdown blocks, role-based permissions, live collaboration, and white-labeling, UI Vault replaces static PDFs and siloed files with a living, scalable source of truth.
Whether you’re a solo designer, an agency, or an enterprise team, UI Vault helps you turn your design system into something discoverable, centralized, and actionable—by anyone, anywhere.
What is design system documentation and design system software?
Design system documentation is the structured, centralized source of truth that explains how a design system works, how to use it, and why it exists. Its purpose is to create consistency across teams, streamline collaboration between design and development, and scale your visual language across products and platforms.
In UI Vault, design system documentation is live, interactive, and connected to your Figma source of truth. Modern teams use design system software—like UI Vault—to automate, organize, and share this documentation in a way that’s always up to date, beautifully presented, and easy to access.
Who is Brandy for?
UI Vault is built for teams who care about design consistency, systematization, and scale.
Whether you’re building a design system from scratch or managing a mature multi-brand operation, UI Vault is ideal for:
- Designers who want to sync Figma components and styles into a structured, visually rich guide without manual effort.
- Developers who need clear, up-to-date documentation of design tokens, specs, and components—ready for implementation.
- Product managers who oversee multiple teams or initiatives and want centralized, branded, accessible documentation.
- Agencies managing style guides across multiple clients or projects with white-label needs and custom branding.
- Enterprises operating at scale with complex permissions, multiple brands, and internal governance standards.
UI Vault is for anyone tired of static PDFs, broken links, and outdated documentation—and ready for a living design system platform that evolves with your product.
How does billing work?
All of our plans are billed annually or monthly. Each plan has limits on brand spaces, assets, and storage, and the features differ on each tier. If you reach the limit on your plan, you will need to upgrade to make sure that your account can accommodate your growth. Plans are designed to be affordable for small business and budding agencies, and your support is greatly appreciated to fuel our product roadmap.
How is UI Vault different from its sister product Brandy?
UI Vault is designed specifically for Figma-based design system documentation, while Brandy is focused on brand asset management.
UI Vault pulls in Figma components, text styles, and color tokens and organizes them into interactive, editable, and shareable style guides. It’s purpose-built for documenting design systems, tokens, and component libraries.
Brandy is for storing, tagging, and managing logos, fonts, brand videos, marketing materials, and other creative assets—great for marketers, designers, and agencies managing files outside Figma.
In short: Brandy is your vault of brand assets, while UI Vault is your living design system linked to Figma.
What does UI Vault sync from Figma?
UI Vault connects directly to your Figma files and libraries, allowing you to sync and document alongside:
- Components (with variants, nested layers, and naming structure)
- Text styles (including font family, size, weight, line height, letter spacing, and responsive behavior)
- Color styles and tokens (organized by name and usage context)
- Design tokens (soon: spacing, radii, shadows, etc.)
- Logo components (auto-detected and displayed with download options)
- Frame previews for hero sections, illustrations, UI patterns, and more
The sync is automatic, fast, and keeps your documentation always up to date with what’s in Figma—no copy/pasting, no duplicating.
