Canva Launches Its Own AI Design Model and Expands Into Marketing Tools

Canva just made a major leap in AI design with its own foundational design model and a full suite of advanced features set to transform how people create and collaborate on visual content.

Details:

• Canva’s foundational model generates fully editable designs with layers and objects instead of flat images. It works across multiple formats, letting users start with prompts and refine ideas directly. The upgraded AI assistant is built into every part of Canva

• Canva is also expanding beyond design. It includes spreadsheet and app-building tools for data visualization, form creation, and email templates. Canva Grow combines AI asset creation with analytics and ad publishing to platforms like Meta

• The integration of Affinity adds major value. Canva has made the professional design suite F-R-E-E for everyone, redesigned its interface to blend vector, pixel, and layout tools, and enabled seamless object transfers

Canva currently rivals Adobe by blending AI-powered assistance with hands-on creative control while keeping professional design affordable.

AI Tutorial

How to Build a 30‑Day Plan You’ll Actually Follow with Manus 1.5

If you like plans that live on your calendar, not in your head, you’re in the right place. We’ll use Manus 1.5 to reverse‑engineer your goal and auto‑create a color‑coded ICS you can import straight into Google Calendar.

1. Define 30‑Day Target

   • Specify the exact outcome you want on day 30 (a metric, deliverable, or milestone).

   • Note constraints (working hours, days off, existing commitments).

   • Identify key work streams (these map to colors): Outreach, Content, Fulfillment, Community, Planning.

2. Use Manus Agent Mode

   Launch Manus and choose Agent mode. This enables autonomous planning and file output, including calendar exports.

3. Confirm Planning Preferences

   Decide on your timezone (EST), preferred working window (e.g., 9–5), and typical time‑block length. You can include these in your prompt so the exported ICS lands at the right times.

4. Write High‑Precision Prompt

   Prompt template:

   “Break down [your goal] into a 30‑day execution roadmap with daily, time‑blocked inputs. Color‑tag by priority: 🔴Outreach 🟠Content 🟡Fulfillment 🟢Community 🔵Planning. Export a Google Calendar–ready .ics in EST. Also provide a 30‑day Markdown plan, a daily checklist, and a summary with power hours and weekly anchors.”

   Example prompt:

   “Decompose ‘launch and sell 100 preorders of my course’ into a 30‑day plan with daily time blocks. Use color keys: 🔴Outreach 🟠Content 🟡Fulfillment 🟢Community 🔵Planning. Output an EST‑based .ics for Google Calendar, plus a Markdown plan, daily checklist, and a summary with power hours and weekly anchors.”

5. Generate Deliverables

   Submit your prompt — Manus returns a 30-day Markdown plan, daily checklists, an ICS file, and a summary with power hours and weekly anchors.

6. Review and Tweak

   View the Markdown plan and summary. Verify color tags match work streams, time blocks fit your availability, and weekly anchors match your cadence.

   If anything’s off, ask Manus to revise timing, duration, or emphasis and regenerate the files.

7. Import ICS

   • Load Google Calendar and expand the left sidebar.

   • Next to "Other calendars," press the + and choose "Import."

   • Select the ICS file from Manus and choose your destination calendar.

   • Tap Import to add the time‑blocked, color‑coded entries.

8. Validate Calendar and Execute

   Scan 30 days for conflicts, confirm priorities, verify power hours & weekly anchors, tweak as needed, then follow the daily checklist.

Note: Import into a temporary sub-calendar first; review and tweak. If you need to re-import, delete that sub-calendar to prevent duplicates.

Create Your Own Product Photo Like This Using the Prompt Below:

A close-up, high-angle shot of a classic men's watch against a pure black background. The watch features a polished silver-tone stainless steel case and a warm off-white or cream-colored dial. The dial has clear black Arabic numerals for the hours (1–12) and a minute track with smaller dashes, also in black. The watch hands are slender and black. The brand name "[Creator PlanetX]" is prominently displayed at the 12 o'clock position, with "BROOKLYN, N.Y." written beneath it in a smaller font. Below the center, "AUTOMATIC" is inscribed. A date window at the 3 o'clock position shows the number "2." The watch is fitted with a rich reddish-brown leather strap that extends out of view to the bottom left and top right. The glass crystal has a slight domed appearance and shows subtle reflections. Focused, soft lighting highlights the metallic sheen of the case and the texture of the leather strap, creating a luxurious, sophisticated feel against the dark background.

Agentic AI with Andrew Ng

Previously paywalled and recently made F-R-E-E, this course teaches building agentic AI systems that plan, execute, and improve tasks, covering four patterns: reflection (self-critique and iteration), tool use (connecting LLMs to databases, APIs, and services), planning (breaking work into adaptable steps), and multi-agent coordination (specialized agents collaborating).
