Overview
- Canva announced the Gemini Connected App at Google I/O on Tuesday, with a gradual rollout starting in select English-language markets.
- After users enable Canva in Gemini settings, they can search Canva content, generate designs from chat context, and open files in Canva to edit and publish.
- The link to Google’s Nano Banana image model lets Magic Layers break AI images into separate, movable elements for true layer-by-layer editing.
- Each design ties to the user’s Brand Kit so new assets use the right logos, colors, and fonts without time-consuming manual styling.
- The move completes Canva’s integrations across Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot, with AI use tripling year over year and connector usage rising 30%–40% monthly, according to the company.
