Turn prompts into design-ready images you can edit
Canva Craft is Canva’s first in-house image model, built for marketers, creators and designers who need images that work as designs, not just pictures. Unlike models trained mostly on photos that render pixels straight from a prompt, Craft learned from millions of Canva templates and plans the composition first, then renders it at 2K in 30+ aspect ratios. Expect legible text in 55 languages, precise placement and outputs you can split into editable layers. Live in Canva today, plus API.

Who hunted Canva Craft?
Canva Craft was hunted by Kate Ramakaieva. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.

Hey PH👋
I make visuals basically every week. And my biggest AI image pet peeve is text. You ask for a headline, you get alien letters.
So when I saw Canva built a model that plans the layout before drawing anything, I had to try it.
What got me:
The text actually reads like text
Things go where you asked them to go
You can open the result in Canva and edit the pieces separately, not just regenerate and pray
Any size you need, from stories to banners
It’s trained on real design templates, not just photos, and you can tell.
It’s live for everyone in Canva right now, so go break it! https://www.canva.com/newsroom/news/canva-craft/
