Canva has taken advantage of the celebration of the fourth edition of its Canva Create 2025 event to present its new Visual Suite 2.0, an enhanced offering of AI-powered design tools. The new releases have been designed to blend creativity and productivity, providing a better and more personalized experience for its users.

Melanie Perkins, co-founder and CEO of Canva, expressed her enthusiasm about all the announced innovations: “We finally reveal the Visual Suite 2.0, where creativity meets productivity, our largest product launch since we founded Canva more than a decade ago.

Each year, our community of 230 million people shares millions of ideas. One of the most repeated is the need to merge creativity and productivity in a single perfectly integrated flow. We love making life easier for anyone who wants to bring their ideas to life, whether by revolutionizing essential work tools or providing new ways to design with a specific assistant.”

Visual Suite 2.0

Canva introduced its first Visual Suite in 2022 and since then more than 145 million people have joined the platform. Currently, more than 230 million active monthly users use Canva to explore and express their creativity, creating over 376 designs per second.

The Visual Suite has become a key ally for individuals, professionals, and businesses alike, being used in over 190 countries and by more than 95% of Fortune 500 companies, including companies like T-Mobile and FedEx. Thanks to its successful reception and implementation, Canva has achieved annual revenues exceeding $3.300 billion, a year-over-year growth of 30%.

Now, with the arrival of Visual Suite 2.0, Canva opens a new chapter in its commitment to AI-driven design. They have presented everything from spreadsheets to advanced data visualization tools, including conversational design, large-scale content personalization, and new ways to create interactive experiences. Let us discover them.

The Entire Visual Suite in One Design

The need to handle different workspaces for each type of content will be a thing of the past. Soon, Canva will allow users to create any type of design on a single page with a unified format, be it documents, websites, or presentations.

This feature will allow you to create all materials related to the same topic in a cohesive space, facilitating the creative process and design consistency. For example, if you are working on the launch strategy for a new vlog, you can create social media posts, posters, campaign reports, scheduling spreadsheets, and even a website, all in a single collaborative and unified workspace.

Spreadsheets

Canva revealed that its research team found that nearly 70% of professionals who work with data every week experience anxiety because spreadsheets are complex, rigid, and difficult to customize.

To address this, the platform has reinvented spreadsheets to offer a completely visual experience while connecting and integrating data, text, and visual resources. These are part of Canva’s Magic Studio and incorporate several key functionalities.

One of them is Magic Analysis, which allows you to analyze datasets and identify key patterns to offer important conclusions. Another is Data Connection, which imports data from tools like HubSpot, Statista, or Google Analytics, among others, making it easier to bring information to life.

Large-Scale Magic Studio

With the new capability of Large-Scale Magic Studio, you can transform your spreadsheets into large volumes of content in just seconds.

Whether it is about marketing campaigns for various markets, internal communications, or sales strategies, templates can be instantly filled thanks to the dynamic insertion of data, eliminating manual work, speeding up production, and ensuring consistency across all media,” explain Canva representatives.

Magic Charts

A tool capable of combining data and design to create visual and interactive representations that facilitate the understanding of information. With Magic Charts, you can convert raw data from your spreadsheets into dynamic elements that stay true to your brand’s identity. From animated charts to scrollable reports or engaging infographics, present your information clearly with one click.

Canva AI

This innovation is a voice-powered design tool driven by AI that functions as a conversational creative assistant capable of speaking. You will only need to voice your command to generate texts, presentations, edit images, etc., and Canva AI will bring your directives to life.

Canva AI integrates all of the platform’s generative AI tools, offering an integrated workflow to help you transform your ideas into tangible designs and creations. For now, it is available only in English.

Canva Programming

The design platform aims to remove the barriers that prevented the integration of interactive content without using complex technical tools. To this end, it has created Canva Programming, a solution through which, with a simple request, you can integrate forms, calculators, flashcards, etc. into your designs.

Canva Programming transforms any static content into a dynamic and engaging experience without leaving Canva and without the need to program or resort to external tools. Whether you want to create web pages, educational resources, or presentations, remember, you only need to write a few words.”

Photo Editor

Canva has incorporated its photo editor into its Visual Suite, enhancing its capabilities with AI and improving the user experience. Whether you are working with professional designs or just want to make a small touch-up, the ease of use and the power of the improved photo editor make it very simple.

Some of the most innovative features include: AI editing for precise element modification, the AI background generator capable of considering lighting and composition, and the ability to remove or replace objects easily.

Responsible and Safe Design

Thanks to this new enhanced offering, Canva consolidates its position in the visual communication sector, both by facilitating everyday content creation and the complex working processes of teams worldwide.

Additionally, all of Canva’s AI tools, including Magic Studio and Canva AI, are backed by Canva Shield, its set of privacy, security, and trust tools. This ensures: input and output data moderation, safety filters, bias mitigation, and clear user controls over how data is used in AI training.

Moreover, the platform is clear that AI should be a tool to enhance human creativity, not replace it. Therefore, it is committed to developing it transparently and responsibly.

Through its $220 million Creator’s Fund, Canva has paid millions in AI rights to ensure their creators receive fair rewards when their resources are used in AI-generated designs. Creators receive payments when their content is used in generating AI results that are published and continue to have rights to monthly royalties if they agree to have their content used to train Canva’s AI.
