## Current Capability Reference

Canva introduced **Canva AI 2.0** in 2026 as a conversational and agentic creative environment capable of producing layered, editable designs. New workflows include Brand Intelligence, Sheets AI, connectors, web research, scheduling, and Canva Code 2.0; however, Canva describes AI 2.0 as a **research-preview rollout**, so availability should be verified before making these capabilities mandatory in delivery.

For high-volume marketing production, Canva’s **Magic Studio at Scale** can apply capabilities such as Magic Write, Translate, Background Remover, and Magic Resize across structured content from Canva Sheets, helping teams generate branded campaign assets in bulk.

Canva has also expanded direct marketing activation workflows. In 2026 it added **Meta Catalog Data with Bulk Create**, direct publishing to **TikTok Ads**, alongside existing Meta and LinkedIn advertising connections, plus integrations that can send HTML email designs directly to platforms including Mailchimp, Constant Contact, Klaviyo, and Flodesk.

Canva Sheets currently includes AI-assisted capabilities such as **Magic Insights, Magic Formulas, and Magic Charts**, enabling marketers to organize campaign data, identify patterns, and convert validated performance information into visual summaries and dashboards.
