Have You Checked Out Canva Docs
Hi WA,
So, have you had a look at Canva Docs yet? I've been fiddling around with it and I have to say, it could become addictive!
In a nutshell, Canva Docs allows you to beef up your documents with all kinds of fun visual images...think graphics, videos, charts, images etc. on steroids.
Pretty much anything you can imagine, you can now easily create the visual. That could be quite helpful for all kinds of online marketing efforts.
There's also an AI tool called Magic Write that allows you to come up with quick ideas for content. Put in your description words, and see what pops up.
But as others have been writing here recently regarding AI, use it to spark ideas. I wouldn't suggest you use it verbatim.
The Magic Write tool is free. So even if you have a free Canva account, you are able to use it with a limit of 25 per month. If you have a paid subscription with them, then you can generate up to 75 per month (per user) on the account.
Canva Docs can really help liven up your content because it gives you the ability to marry text with dynamic images. No more excuses for boring charts or data. Spice it up with some color and visual elements to capture your viewers' attention.
Everything is super easy to use. Drag and drop allows you to quickly create your masterpieces with ease. Forget about any formatting!
All Canva Docs are compatible with your other Canva creations. Now there's no reason to not create brilliant looking graphs, charts, e-books, banners or presentations.
Plus, you can convert your "doc" to a PDF with the click of a button when downloading.
There are many other features, but these are just some of the highlights. You can explore it on your own time.
Happy experimenting!

Thanks Susan,
Canva is one of my “go to “ sites and I use them a lot. As for AI writing tools, I have stopped using them as I find it quicker to just write myself. However, I’m always interested in anything new as,I think, eventually there will be a good writing tool come out. I use to use Ryterr ✍️ but stopped for the above reason.
Happy New Year

Hi Stephen…nice to hear from you. Happy new year! Canva is a great tool, I agree. But I wouldn’t depend on AI either. However, it may be helpful for sparking ideas. I appreciate your thoughts. Hope you are well. 👍🏻😎
As we speak…or at least write…lol..there is an AI app that a friend has been using and she says it’s great. It’s called JasperAI. I haven’t looked at it yet…only so many hours in one day, boohoo.
But I’m going to have a Squizz later and see why she thinks it is so special..let me know, if you look, what you think.

Hi, Susan
Great Post!
I made a 54-page eBook for my guitar site as an email lead magnet, all on Canva before their Docs platform was available. It took me over a week to make.
I've been playing around with Canva Docs, and it's super easy and quick to use because it pulls everything together in one area! 😎

Hi Frank…wow, congrats on the ebook. That’s awesome! I’ve just started with Docs but I’m liking what I see. Canva makes it easy to create professional quality products. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Hi, Susan
At some point I’ll probably redo that ebook and create some short YouTube videos to embed, demonstrating the guitar exercises.
I’ll have to check to see if Canva Docs supports that, but I believe it does. 😎
Frank 🎸
Hi Frank…that sounds great! Videos work wonders in our world of short attention spans. I’m pretty sure Docs will accommodate. 😊😎👍🏻
This certainly helps! Thank you so much for sharing. I use Canva daily, but never dove into those docs. Could really help my typed content!
Canva Pro has been my go to for all my content creation for years! I love it, and yes, it can be addictive. You can literally create anything in this site. Videos, brochures, business cards, you name it! Thanks for sharing! Happy New Year!
That’s great to hear! I think one could get lost in trying out all the possibilities. Glad you are enjoying it. Happy new year to you too!
I do love Canva Susan and have been a member/subscriber for quite some time!
It is a fantastic tool to play around with... I haven't for a while though... this is probably why I missed this new feature!!
Appreciate the update my friend and enjoy the rest of your day! 😊
You bet. It is a great tool...totally agree, Nick! I hope you have fun trying it out. Have a super evening! 😊
It is indeed Susan and I wish you a super fantastic evening and day as well dear friend!

I love Canva and have a Pro account, and have been using it for years.
I tried other AI software and wasn't impressed with the quality or how much fact-checking was required.
But I tried Canva's Magic Write, and I have to say I was impressed with the quality of what it produced.
I can easily see how it would be useful to generate outlines and drafts for posts to get the creative process started.
I'm still not a fan of AI for content in general, but I was impressed here with Canva's software if it were used reasonably.
Thanks for sharing,

👀 magic write you say? And this is found on pro? I may have to get the pro account.
Oops just realized I had already commented on this post. Lol 😆
Hi Shakida;
That's okay. 😀
Yes, I've been using Canva Pro for years for graphics, etc. I love it, and for me, it's worth the money.
New extra features like the docs just makes it even more so.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. I agree with you and would only use it as an idea generator or framework tool. But it does open possibilities faster. Appreciate you dropping by.
Susan
You can use Magic Write even with a free Canva account…there’s just less usage tries on a free vs paid subscription, as mentioned in my post. :-)
