At a glance
Canva AI is a collection of AI features inside the design tool Canva. Starting with Canva AI 2.0, released in April 2026, you can ask a conversational assistant for what you want and it creates editable designs, documents, presentations, videos and websites with live layers, using Canva's own model (Canva Design Model) together with models from Leonardo, Google, Anthropic and others. It is good for marketers, small business owners, teachers and students with no design experience who need results quickly.

Which plan for whom
- Free: Students and individuals who occasionally make social images or card news. AI is only 20 per month, so it is for a taste.
- Pro: Solo marketers, small business owners and creators who make content every week. Premium templates, background removal and Magic Resize alone are worth it.
- Business: Marketing teams of 2 or more that share brand kits and approval flows.
- Enterprise: Companies with hundreds of users that need SSO and security management.
- AI Pass: Heavy users who pull Veo video clips or Ultra quality images in bulk every day.
- Education / Nonprofit: If you are a school or nonprofit, you can use premium features for free, so be sure to apply.
