Introducing our second model in a week! @canva Brush is built specifically for editing designs. 🖌️

The future of AI isn’t one model that does everything. It’s specialized models that do specific tasks exceptionally well and cost efficiently. They are how we unlock AI at Canva’s massive scale.

Creative tasks, like editing designs, are compute and cost intensive. Editing is also how users can make designs that look like it’s theirs. Brush reads the design, plans the changes and makes the edits directly.

In testing, Brush matched or beat the quality of the models we used before, while running faster and at a lower cost.

Canva has entered the frontier image model race today with Craft – our first frontier model built specifically for design.

Canva Craft debuted as the world's 4th most advanced image generation model on @DesignArena with an Elo score of 1340. That makes Canva Research the world’s second most advanced AI lab for image generation 🚀

Unlike most image models, Craft thinks like a designer would with image planner first creating a layout, then an image renderer painting that layout in up to 2K resolution, any aspect ratio and 55 languages.

Craft is available in Canva today, and we’re opening it up through a public API.

Try it today: canva.com/dream-lab/ or via API canva.dev/docs/apps/rest… and imminently via Canva MCP

AI agents will increasingly be built by the people closest to the work. But they need: 1) trusted access to the systems and 2) the ability to communicate visually.

Cloudflare is the secure foundation with an open-source AI workspace shaped around how each company operates.

Canva is the creative layer for the agentic workplace. With Canva connected, agents can help people:
- Find designs, folders and brand assets
- Create decks, docs, whiteboards, custom designs
- Generate an editable deck from a brief with Canva AI
- Remove backgrounds, turn flat images into editable designs
- Combine these capabilities into new apps and workflows
