About Canva

Canva is a drag-and-drop design platform aimed at people who are not professional designers. Thousands of templates cover social posts, presentations, documents, videos and print materials, and a large library of photos, icons and fonts is built in. Brand kits keep colors and logos consistent across a team, and AI tools help generate images, rewrite text and resize designs for different channels. It runs in the browser and on desktop and mobile. The free plan is generous, while Canva Pro and Teams unlock premium assets, brand controls and background removal.

Best for: Non-designers creating social, marketing and presentation graphics.
