Canva AI 2.0 introduces memory, connectors, and automated workflows

At Canva Create today, the company is making its biggest push yet into the agentic design field with the release of the research preview of Canva AI 2.0. Here’s what’s new.

Canva AI 2.0 expands beyond design

With the introduction of Canva AI 2.0, the platform is launching a unified conversational interface for design, automation, and content creation, based on the company’s Proteus, Lucid Origin, and I2V generative image and video models, which are “up to 7x faster and 30x cheaper than comparable frontier alternatives.”

In practice, today’s news means users can now use natural language-based prompts to describe what they need, while Canva’s new agentic system generates designs and handles the tools and workflows needed to create, edit, automate, and even publish work across the platform.
