Canva has launched a new tool powered by Google's Veo 3 model, allowing users to generate short cinematic video clips using simple text prompts. Known as 'Create a Video Clip', the feature produces eight-second videos with sound directly inside the Canva platform.
This marks one of the first commercial uses of Veo 3, which debuted last month. The AI tool is available to Canva Pro, Teams, Enterprise and Nonprofit users, who can generate up to five clips per month initially.
Danny Wu, Canva's head of AI products, said the feature simplifies video creation with synchronised dialogue, sound effects and editing options. Users can integrate the clips into presentations, social media designs or other formats via Canva's built-in video editor.
Canva is also extending the tool to users of Leonardo.Ai, a related image generation service. The feature is protected by Canva Shield, a content moderation and indemnity framework aimed at enterprise-level security and trust.
