  • Things to know

  • AI generation limits: Quality of AI images can vary; results may look generic depending on complexity of the prompt.
  • Brand consistency may require manual adjustment: Magic tools aren’t always perfect at hitting specific brand guidelines.
  • Limited fine-tuning: AI outputs cannot be deeply customized at the model level.
  • Requires internet connection: All AI processes run in the cloud, so performance depends on connectivity.
  • Can feel template-driven: Even with AI, designs may look similar to other Canva creations unless heavily customized.
  • Export limitations for advanced use cases: Not all exports (such as vector-level editable files) support deep editing outside Canva.
