Canva Brush is here! For years, we’ve been working to make AI feel like a true design partner inside Canva, not something that takes over your work. The first time I used Brush, it finally clicked: super fast, understood what I wanted to change, and kept what I loved intact. We can't wait to see what you'll create with it!
Introducing Brush: Our first vision-language model for design. 🖌️ Brush sees your design’s layout, layers and vibe the way you do, and edits alongside you. Fix one line of text, restyle a whole deck or build from a blank page. See what Brush can do 👇

A jam-packed interview with @cliffobrecht, the 🐐 COO & co-founder. Tune in below!
For all founders that have been told by VCs: Your market is not big enough. You are not technical. You aren’t from Silicon Valley. You can’t have your partner as a co-founder. This is for you. The tale of the $40BN @canva with @cliffobrecht 👇

A beautiful African proverb says it takes a village to raise a child, it certainly does to build a company too. Proud to cross 100 million people designing in Canva and incredibly grateful for our team and global community who brought our wild dream to life.

A few years ago I wrote a post about some of the lessons we've learned on Canva's journey, I called it Part 1, but never quite got to Part 2! If there's anything you'd like to know more about, let me know and I'll try to include the questions in Part 2!👇 bit.ly/3n1VX6W

Brilliant to see @canva in the classroom in rural Uttar Pradesh, India - much more to come!! Thanks for showcasing @neeleshmisra & sharing @ViralRJani Cc: @zachkitschke
Village students learning graphic design on @canva in the heart of rural India, in UP’s Kunaura village. Along with our long distance video-based virtual classes, we want to make our school a model for rural India, break stereotypes and make it a scalable model. @MelanieCanva

The opportunity that we have is only superseded by the responsibility we feel. We hope we can live up to it over the years to come. So lucky to turn a wild idea into reality with the best team, community and investors. Exciting progress on our 2-step plan: bit.ly/3zczurU
