Canva celebrated 10 years with the launch of Canva’s Magic Studio.
Magic Studio is the world’s most comprehensive AI-design platform empowering individuals, teams and organisations to boost their creativity, supercharge their productivity and scale their brands.
Melanie Perkins, Co-founder and CEO, Canva, said, “A decade ago, Canva set out to empower the world to design by simplifying a complex and fragmented design ecosystem. As we go into the next decade of our journey, we’re incredibly excited to be taking a massive leap forward with the launch of Magic Studio – the first all-in-one suite of design AI tools created to supercharge the way teams create and scale visual content.”
“With a focus on making complex things simple, Magic Studio has been built for the 99% of the world without complex design training. This launch marks the start of an exciting new chapter as we double down on empowering over 150 million individuals and thousands of businesses to unlock their creativity and achieve their goals,” he added.
Magic Studio – The AI Design Platform for the Other 99%
The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence presents an opportunity for individuals and organisations to realise their innate creative potential. Despite an onslaught of new tools, AI-powered design remains geared towards design professionals and exists in a highly complex and fragmented market, limiting the incredible potential of this technology for the 99% of workers who need to create more content than ever without advanced design skills.
