Canva AI Goes Multilingual: Major Expansion Announced

Canva AI, the powerful suite of artificial intelligence tools built into the Canva Visual Suite, has received a significant upgrade — it’s now available in 16 new languages, including Arabic, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, and more. Previously, Canva AI was only available in English.

This expansion allows users to generate AI content using prompts in their native languages, improving accessibility and productivity for millions of non-English speakers.

As per Canva’s official announcement, the AI assistant now supports the following 17 languages:

• Arabic
• Chinese
• Dutch
• English
• French
• German
• Hindi
• Indonesian
• Italian
• Japanese
• Korean
• Polish
• Portuguese
• Spanish

Beyond Language: Locales and Cultural Sensitivity

Canva clarified that the update isn’t just a translation of interface — it’s a culturally aware AI assistant. The platform now understands 31 distinct locales, meaning it tailors outputs to align with local customs, design preferences, and cultural elements.

For example, Canva said, “Someone in Tokyo asking for a professional presentation will see Canva AI consider Japanese design sensibilities, or someone in Mumbai requesting a festive poster will see culturally-relevant visual elements.”

This locale-aware customization enhances contextual accuracy, making Canva AI more intuitive and user-centric.

• Canva AI tools have been used over 20 billion times globally since their debut in April 2025.
• The platform has reached 240 million users worldwide.
• Canva recently announced an annualised revenue of $3.3 billion (₹29,300 crore approx).

These numbers underscore Canva AI’s popularity and rapid growth among creators, educators, marketers, and businesses.
