🎬 Canva introduces new AI features
Eight months ago, Canva released Magic Studio, a tool for designing with AI. Now, they’re taking it a step further. Besides generating images from text and creating full presentations and posts, Magic Studio introduces Magic Switch, which allows you to transform, for example, a presentation into a website or a brainstorm into a rollout plan. This could potentially save you a lot of time because you only need to create one piece of content that can be converted into different outputs.
🔨 Tool of the month: Airtable AI
Airtable started as a tool to create smart data sheets. You can add automations to all the sheets, and Airtable promotes itself as a no-code platform for apps.
In their latest update, they use generative AI to analyze and organize data more effectively. Helpful for summarizing the most important information, such as when dealing with product feedback.
