The price of some Canva subscriptions are set to skyrocket next year following the company’s aggressive rollout of generative AI features. Global customers for Canva Teams — a business-orientated subscription that supports adding multiple users — can expect prices to increase by just over 300 percent in some instances. Canva says the increase is justified due to the “expanded product experience” and value that generative AI tools have added to the platform.
In the US, some Canva Teams users are reporting subscription increases from $120 per year for up to five users, to an eye-watering $500 per year. A 40 percent discount will be applied to bring that down to $300 for the first 12 months. In Australia, the flat $39.99 AUS (about $26 USD) per month fee for five users is switching to $13.50 AUS (about $9 USD) for each user. That means a team of five will pay at least 68 percent more, not withstanding any other discounts.
Does Canva realize that they have more in common with Microsoft’s free power point templates than Adobe CS?
But… no you don’t get it… like… they have AI. Understand? AI!!
Will Affinity product line be the next as Canva bought them?
Every proprietary software will be enshittified eventually; it’s only a matter of time.
The only way to not be subject to the enshittification, in the long run, is to adopt a militant zero-tolerance policy against all proprietary software and insist on using only 100% Free Software instead.
I like this (and largely follow it), except that I occasionally need CMYK color space for printing, and GIMP makes that extreeeeeeeeemely difficult and annoying. That’s why I use Affinity. I got the software for the single lifetime price and I’m hoping they let me keep it…
I thought this was about carvana and was completely confused.
Maybe they can use AI to finally get people the titles for the cars they bought
More AI nonsense, this time named Leonardo
Pay three times as much for a “feature” nobody asked for.
%##% you canva. just when you think you’ve found someone to replace piece of =**^%# adobe. then this happens. ffs
