Canva

About

Canva is an Australian graphic design platform that has democratised visual communication for over 170 million users across 190 countries. Founded in 2013 by Melanie Perkins, Cliff Obrecht, and Cameron Adams in Perth, Western Australia, Canva was born from a simple observation: existing design tools were too complicated and expensive for non-designers. Canva's drag-and-drop interface, combined with millions of templates, images, fonts, and AI-powered design tools, allows anyone to create professional-quality designs for social media, presentations, documents, video, and print. Valued at $26 billion in its most recent funding round, Canva is one of the world's largest privately-held SaaS companies. In India, Canva has over 12 million monthly active users — one of its largest markets globally — and the platform supports Hindi as a design language. Canva for Education serves over 50 million students and teachers worldwide. Canva's Magic Studio suite integrates generative AI for image creation, text rewriting, and video generation.
