Canva is launching a number of new features, including a new Brand Hub and a set of AI-powered tools. During today’s virtual Canva Create event, the business showcased the new features and capabilities.
The business is introducing Assistant, which enables customers to look for design components and offers simple access to functions. The program can also suggest graphics and design elements that go well with your current layout. The platform’s AI-powered copywriting assistant, Magic Write, which was introduced in December, is one example of an AI-powered design tool that is easily accessible through Assistant.
Magic Write is now available in all Canva project types, including presentations, flyers, social media graphics, and more. Magic Write was only available in Canva Documents before this upgrade.
For writing website text or summaries for presentations, utilize Magic Write. For instance, you could ask Magic Write to provide suggestions for social media launches of new products. When recommending copy, the tool considers the type of project you’re working on. Along with the increased accessibility, Canva reported that Magic Write is now available in 18 different languages.
Moreover, we now have a “Magic Edit” tool that enables you to add or remove any element from an image. Once you’ve decided where to add anything, you may explain it to Magic Edit. By stroking over the region, the new “Magic Eraser” tool enables you to remove extraneous elements from photographs.
A new method of creating presentations automatically has also been introduced by Canva. You can instruct the editor to produce a variety of slideshows that include an outline and material for each one. In terms of design, the business’s brand-new “Magic Design” tool enables users to submit an image, choose a style, and then receive a curated list of customizable templates.
Along with a new “Translate” option that automatically translates text in designs into over 100 different languages, Canva is also introducing “Beat Sync,” a new feature that instantly syncs video footage to a music of your choice. Canva is debuting a number of new features in addition to the new AI-powered tools that it claims customers have requested.
The business is first releasing “Draw,” which enables you to create a basic shape, like a circle, and then see it turn into a polished circle. Users can add information to a page using the new “Layouts” function and receive suggestions for design layout options, while “Styles” enables users to browse suggested colour schemes and typefaces.
Text, shapes, photos, and video may all be seen in one area with the new “Layers” feature. Canva, which debuted in 2013, currently boasts more than 120 million monthly users, which is 35 million more than it did prior to the September 2022 launch of its Visual Worksuite. The business claims that their platform has been used to create more than 15 billion designs.
