Canva

Design platform with AI tools for everyday marketing assets.

Canva is the default design tool for non-designers, and its Magic Studio adds text-to-image, background removal, and layout suggestions inside the same editor. Templates cover nearly every social and print format. Professionals may find it limiting, but for speed it is hard to beat.
