Canva CEO Melanie Perkins explains the pivot from design platform with AI tools to AI platform with design tools, launching Canva AI 2.0 for end-to-end workflows.
●
Canva advances from pixels and objects to concept layer, where users input ideas for AI-generated designs editable via drag-and-drop.
●
Enterprise revenue hits $500M of $4B total, with 95% Fortune 500 adoption and AI 2.0 targeting deeper integration via connectors to Gmail and Slack.
●
AI acts as creative partner for iterative editing, reducing manual work while preserving collaboration and customisation in one platform.
"AI should accelerate your vision and creativity, not override it." - Melanie Perkins
