Canva has successfully become one of the most widely used visual communication platforms around the world. According to Style Factory, which cites the website of Canva, it states that Canva is used by 135 million users globally each month. Previously, in October 2022, Canva announced that it had reached 100 million users each month.
The large number of users accessing Canva has led it to continually expand and update the features available on the platform. The new features integrate with Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools that are increasingly popular in this digital era. Here are some of the tools provided by Canva.
- “Brand Hub” Feature
Tools like this are very helpful for the development of your business or company. This is because Canva helps ensure your company maintains consistency in developing the designs or branding you wish to present, such as the Brand Kit that contains colors, fonts, brand assets, and more, which can serve as guidelines for your company in creating designs.
- Text to Image
Canva provides features similar to MidJourney, Jasper Art, and Dall-E 2, where you can give instructions through text. Then, Canva will generate several images that match the description you create.
- Translation Feature
Without the need for additional applications, Canva already offers a translation feature that can translate into over 100 languages.
- “Beat Sync” Feature
This feature is widely used in video editing applications, such as Wondershare Filmora. Canva has also incorporated this feature into one of its AI tools. The “Beat Sync” feature helps reduce the time users spend adjusting the tempo of music to the video they want to edit, as the editing process can be time-consuming.
- “Magic: Design, Draw, Eraser, Edit, Presentation, Write” Feature
Canva introduces several features that begin with the word “Magic.” These features correspond to the following words, such as the “Magic Write” feature that can assist you in creating copywriting similar to ChatGPT. Additionally, the “Magic Eraser” and “Magic Edit” features help you remove or replace elements of objects you desire, akin to other visual communication applications that are more complex to use.
- Animation
Canva comes with a feature that allows objects to move like simple animations with effects already provided within the platform.
