Canva is a browser-based design platform where teams create presentations, graphics, video, documents, and other visual content from templates and their own building blocks.
Melanie Perkins, Cliff Obrecht, and Cameron Adams founded Canva in Sydney in 2013. The platform grew from the goal of making design more accessible through browser-based templates and a simple visual editor.
A design starts with a format and template. In the editor, text, images, shapes, media, and brand assets are combined on a canvas; teams collaborate through comments and shared editing. Export and publishing produce channel-specific variants, while brand rules support recognition.
Prepared layouts provide a fast start for recurring formats.
Building blocks are arranged and adjusted directly on a canvas.
Approvals, comments, and shared brand assets connect teamwork to output.
Canva speeds up everyday visual communication and collaborative drafts. Information design, originality, brand rights, and accessibility still require expert review.
