Canva and Shutterstock Introduce Major AI Design Tools
October brings major AI updates for visual creators as Canva launches its comprehensive Magic Studio suite and Shutterstock integrates customizable AI tools into its massive stock library.
Canva expands its platform with the launch of Magic Studio, a comprehensive suite of AI-powered design tools that transforms how users create visual content. This collection includes features like Magic Switch, Magic Grab, and Magic Expand, which allow creators to easily edit images, generate videos, and automate copywriting tasks. A standout capability of these tools is the seamless conversion of designs between different formats, significantly boosting overall productivity for users of all skill levels.
In addition to its main platform updates, Canva rolls out Classroom Magic, a specialized set of AI tools designed specifically for educators with a strong focus on privacy and safety. This educational update provides teachers with a library of over 5,000 customizable classroom materials alongside advanced accessibility features. These AI-driven resources simplify lesson planning and actively encourage student creativity in the classroom environment.
Meanwhile, Shutterstock takes a major step by integrating creative AI directly into its extensive library of over 700 million stock images. The platform introduces an industry-first marketplace of fully customizable stock images, equipped with six new AI features such as Magic Brush, Variations, and an AI Image Generator. By maintaining its commitment to the Content Authenticity Initiative, Shutterstock ensures that all this AI-generated and edited content remains verifiable and tamper-evident for brands and marketers.
