Generating an image is easy. Making it the image you needed, then a video from it, then a carousel with it, then publishing that, is a day of tabs. Canvas is one board for all of it, driven from the chat beside it.
Generate, then keep going
Pick Canvas in the launcher, or just ask: "Generate an image of a sunset over the ocean", "make a short video of a rocket launching and put it on the canvas". The result lands on the board. The chat inside the panel carries prompt templates and a model picker with an Auto option that lets the media skill choose the model.
The Generate tool creates video, image, audio, slides, clips or a promo, or works on what is already there: Reframe, Remove background, Upscale, Edit video, Match look, Extend, Lip sync. Video commands include Animate, Slow motion, FPV drone, Earth zoom and TV commercial.
The tool rail
- Looks: browse finished shots and recreate one.
- Upload: bring your own files.
- Library: everything you have made, filtered to your library or this chat.
- Record: record your screen.
- Tasks: runs in progress and what they produced.
Nine studios
| Studio | What it is for |
|---|---|
| Video editing | The timeline editor |
| AI cut | Upload footage and a screenplay, describe the cut |
| Influencer | A consistent AI character on screen |
| Docs | Write and lay out a document, export to Word |
| Carousel | Multi-slide social carousels |
| Flyers | The print studio |
| 3D set | Block a shot with objects and a world, then render |
| Moodboard | Gather references and read the palette out of them |
| Frames | Pull stills out of a clip |
Dedicated editors exist for images, video, audio, docs, carousels and 3D sets.
