Canva has released its first image‑generation model, Canva Craft, to all users. The model works in two stages: first it interprets prompts and creates a detailed plan, then it generates up to 2K‑resolution images in roughly 30 aspect ratios. Canva says the approach yields accurate object details and legible text, and allows precise edits without affecting other parts of the image. The model was trained on human‑designed templates from Canva’s library, including posters, social posts, presentations, infographics, menus, and typography‑rich layouts. Images produced by Canva Craft can be converted into layered designs using Canva Magic. The model is available on the platform’s Dream Lab tab and via the Canva API, with plans to support third‑party chatbots such as ChatGPT and Gemini. Canva also announced two cost‑efficient versions, Craftfast and Craft‑ultrafast, that will be released soon. The research team behind the model includes contributors from Canva’s 2024 acquisition of Leonardo.ai.
