📋About Canva
Updated August 26, 2026Canva is an Australian-founded online design platform that has grown to over 190 million monthly active users across 190 countries. Founded in 2013 by Melanie Perkins, Cliff Obrecht, and Cameron Adams, Canva democratized graphic design with its intuitive drag-and-drop interface and vast template library.
Canva has aggressively integrated AI through its Magic Studio suite of tools. Magic Design generates complete designs from text prompts, Magic Write handles AI copywriting, Magic Edit enables AI-powered photo manipulation, and Magic Expand extends images beyond their original borders. Canva also acquired Leonardo.ai to strengthen its AI image generation capabilities and offers AI-powered translation, background removal, and brand-consistent design generation.
With its Visual Worksuite targeting enterprise teams and recent AI-driven pricing changes, Canva is evolving from a simple design tool into a comprehensive visual communication platform — competing with Adobe at the accessible end of the market while using AI to make professional-quality design achievable for non-designers.
