Canva AI

Canva is first and foremost a tool for making professional visual content quickly, without needing a design background. For office users, the strength isn't that it can "do everything", but that it makes many common tasks easy in one place: presentations, social media posts, simple posters, short videos, documents and quick photo editing. Canva also has a range of AI features in Magic Studio, including text writing, idea generation, image generation and basic photo editing.

The free version is good enough to try Canva out and handle simple tasks. Paid plans give you more AI usage, more premium features, better brand tools and more collaboration. For many people, free is enough at the start, and Pro or a business plan only becomes relevant once Canva is used regularly at work, once more people on the team need to collaborate, or once you need brand control and more AI capacity.
