Canva enters the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The simplified graphic design platform has recently held its virtual event Canva Create 2023, where they have presented all the new features it will incorporate. 

The tools that have attracted the most attention are those that use AI to facilitate the work of designs and its new Brand Hub to facilitate the creation of brand designs.

The Canva Visual Suite has transformed; from now on, we will find many more features to facilitate our tasks when designing with the platform. Some of the new features are:

One of the first new features we can see is Assistant, which will be like our personal assistant within the platform, as it will give us quick access to functions and help us find ideas for our designs. The recommendations will be based on our style and existing designs. In addition, it stands out for giving us quick access to AI functions.

Images are a key element in our designs, and Canva wants to make it easier for us to find the perfect photo. Magic Edit (or Magic Editor) allows you to add or replace any element within an image. And with Magic Eraser, you can remove unwanted distractions with a magic brush.

On the other hand, with Magic Design, you can upload an image, and instantly the platform performs a series of designs with it by choosing fonts, photographs, graphics, and styles, to get the perfect design. 

Afterward, the user can choose the design they like the most and download it. It can be used for everything, whether for making billboards or birthday cards. It can also be used to create attractive presentations easily; ask it to create various presentations with an outline and content.

Canva AI for drawing… and writing 

Now you can also use its Draw tool to draw your ideas and sketch your designs. It offers various brushes that allow you to change color and select weight to make the best freehand designs. 

Integrated into this tool is the Shape Assitant solution that will help you perfect your designs. 

Canva will have a translator who can translate a complete design into another language in a few simple steps. You can find more than 100 languages to translate your designs.

Not only have they developed new features for images, AI will also be present in Canvas video editor with its Beat Sync tool that allows you to choose a soundtrack and adapt the video to the rhythm of the music.

Last year Canva launched Magic Write for Canva Docs; seeing the good reception it has had in the community and the use that was being given, have announced that now Magic Write (Magic Writing) can be used throughout the Visual Worksuite, that is, it will be present on websites, presentations, social networks, whiteboards and more, to write texts easily and quickly. 

For example, you can ask it to make a text on a specific topic or to give us ideas to write in our blog. In addition, it is available in 18 languages, making this generative AI tool one of the first to be available worldwide.

Text-to-image functionality 

Text to Image is another new tool. The AI allows you to transform what you type into an image.

Apart from these tools, the company has added other new features such as:

"Styles" allows users to search for suggested color palettes and fonts.

"Layers" to view all elements in one place, including text, shapes, images, and video.

"Alt Text" can provide additional context to images and elements to describe them for people with visual impairments or accessibility needs.

"Fonts" have added 953 new fonts, including Arial, Courier, Helvetica, and Times New Roman.

"Gradients" add depth and character to your design with customizable gradients.
