Canva

Canva is the Australian company behind the Canva design platform, a browser tool for teams and individuals who make visual content without a designer.

Canva Pty Ltd is an Australian company that builds Canva, an online design and publishing tool it launched in 2013. It sells that platform under its own name from canva.com, and since 2024 it has also owned Leonardo.Ai, an AI image and video generator that runs as an independent platform from leonardo.ai. The company is run from Surry Hills in Sydney. Its stated mission is to empower everyone in the world to design anything and publish anywhere, and the design product is built around that idea: start from a template, finish in a browser, publish without handing the file to anyone else. The company's own about page reports 220 million monthly active users, more than 30 billion designs created, and use in 190 countries and over 100 languages. The customers range from a single teacher or shop owner to marketing departments and large organizations that need shared control over logos, fonts and approvals. Canva sells to all of them from the same platform, with a no-cost tier at one end and a quoted enterprise agreement at the other. Canva also publishes education and nonprofit programs alongside its commercial plans, and it runs an apps ecosystem that brings third-party tools into the editor. The company does not publish its headcount, its revenue or a corporate contact address on the pages that could be read, and most of its about, newsroom and contact pages block automated requests, so the facts recorded here come from its privacy policy, its rendered about page and its own profiles.
