The All-New Affinity: A Creative Game Changer for Our Marketing Team

affinity by Canva helps digital marketing teams deliver.

As a Creative Director, I’m always looking for tools that help our team move faster, collaborate smarter, and produce beautiful, professional-grade work without friction. That’s why the launch of the all-new Affinity, now completely free for everyone, immediately caught my attention—and honestly, it’s a game changer.

Affinity has long been respected among designers who care deeply about craft. Now, with its full redesign and integration under the Canva umbrella, the platform brings together photo editing, vector design, and page layout into one seamless space—no switching between apps, no lag, and no subscription barriers.

Affinity by Canva is a game changer for marketing teams.

For my team, this means streamlined creative production. Whether we’re building a brand identity, editing campaign photos, or laying out a presentation deck, we can stay in flow. The updated Affinity introduces customizable studios, allowing each designer to tailor their workspace with the tools they use most. This flexibility helps us stay focused, efficient, and consistent—especially when juggling multiple clients and projects.

The performance upgrades are another highlight. Everything happens in real time: resizing complex vector files, retouching high-resolution images, and editing multi-page layouts all feel fluid. For a creative team managing large assets daily, this responsiveness is a huge win. It means less waiting, more creating.

Another standout feature is the integration of Canva AI Studio directly inside Affinity.

Another standout feature is the integration of Canva AI Studio directly inside Affinity. Tools like Generative Fill, Background Removal, and Smart Editing give us automation where it matters most—speeding up repetitive steps without replacing our artistry. And the fact that Affinity keeps all creative data private and secure makes me even more confident about using it in professional settings.

From a workflow perspective, this update bridges the gap between professional design and collaborative creation. We can now move Affinity projects directly into Canva with a few clicks, making it easier for designers and non-designers to work together. That kind of connection between precision design and accessible editing has been missing from our toolset—until now.

Most importantly, Affinity remains fully featured and completely free. No stripped-down version, no hidden costs. Just professional-grade tools for everyone on the team. That accessibility aligns perfectly with our philosophy: empowering creativity at every level.

This new chapter for Affinity represents more than just a software update—it’s a step toward creative freedom for teams like ours. I can’t wait to see how it transforms the way we work, collaborate, and deliver.
