Magic Write in Canva: Your first draft, fast

We know staring at a blank page can be daunting – and sometimes just getting started is the hardest part. Canva's popular AI-powered writing assistant Magic Write has helped millions of people write more than one billion words since launching in 2022.

Whether you’re in a Canva Doc, Canva Whiteboard, Canva Presentation, or any other design type in our Visual Suite, simply tell Magic Write what's on your mind and it'll create the starting point for you.

Type what you're looking for and watch as anything from landing page sales copy to a meeting agenda or a photography shot list appears on the page, letting you move from a spark of an idea to a final edit in seconds. You can even ask Magic Write to generate a new version of your existing text. Simply highlight the text, select the Magic Write button then choose to rewrite, summarize, or even add a sprinkle of magic – perfect for turning a paragraph into a list or paraphrasing.

Business owners and teams of every kind are able to supercharge their content. Magic Write excels at brainstorming initial ideas, or drafts for social media posts, press releases, business plans, customer support responses, product descriptions, and proposals which can all be generated at the touch of a button, ready to be proofed and edited. You can even include tone of voice in your Magic Write “brief.” From playful to formal tones – all you have to do is ask.

Build in your brand voice

You can even build your brand’s tone of voice into Magic Write so you can be sure your – or your team’s – copy is always hitting the right note.

Team administrators or brand designers can craft the team's brand voice from the homepage within their Brand Kit – simply write a creative description up to 500 words, and let Magic Write do the rest. If it’s not quite right, you can edit the brand voice guidelines anytime.
