AI agents for Canva
A Monmo agent works in Canva the way a junior designer who knows your brand kit would. It starts designs from your templates, resizes them for Instagram, LinkedIn and print, fills a template from rows in Google Sheets, works through comments and exports PNG, PDF or MP4 files. It uses your own Canva account and asks before it adds, shares, publishes or deletes a design.

What agents do in Canva
Make one graphic in three sizes
Give it the message and it starts from your template, applies the brand kit's fonts, colours and logo, then makes square, portrait and story versions, saved to the folder you name once you allow it.
AskMake the webinar announcement in square, portrait and story sizes from our Events template.
Fill a template from a spreadsheet
For twenty speaker cards or a range of products, it reads each row in Google Sheets, fills a copy of the template with the name, photo and title, and checks that no text overflows its box.
AskMake a speaker card for each row in the Speakers sheet with the Speaker template. Flag any name that doesn't fit.
Keep designs on brand
It opens the recent designs in a folder and checks them against the brand kit: wrong fonts, colours outside the palette and old logos. You get a list with the fix it proposes for each.
AskCheck every design in the Q4 Campaign folder against our brand kit and list anything off-brand.
Export the right file for each use
When a design is approved it exports what each use needs: PNG for social, PDF Print with bleed for the printer, MP4 for animated posts, named the way your team names files.
AskExport the final flyer as PDF Print with bleed and as a PNG for Instagram, named flyer-spring.
Turn a document into a presentation
From a Google Docs outline it builds a Canva presentation on your template, one idea per slide, using photos from your uploads, and asks when it is unsure an image fits.
AskTurn the board update doc into a 10-slide Canva presentation on our company template.
Work through comments
It reads the comments your team left on a design, lists who asked for what, makes the edits it can and marks the ones that need your call. Replies to each thread are posted once you allow them.
AskGo through the comments on the brochure, make the changes and tell me which ones need my decision.
Prepare posts for scheduling
With finished designs, it writes a caption for each and prepares the posts for Instagram and Facebook. Scheduling or publishing, from Canva or another tool, waits for your approval on one card.
AskWrite captions for this week's five designs and prepare them for Instagram. Don't schedule until I've seen them.
How it connects
- 1You connect your own Canva account once. The agent sees the designs, folders and brand kits that account can open; in a Canva team, brand templates and sharing depend on the role your admin gave you.
- 2You choose which agents may use Canva. A marketing or social media agent needs it; a finance agent does not.
- 3Opening designs and exporting copies to the Library need no approval. Creating or editing designs in your account, sharing, publishing and deleting ask first, and one card can cover a batch such as twenty speaker cards.

Questions people ask
Can an AI agent create designs in Canva?
Yes. A Monmo AI agent starts from your templates and brand kit, builds the design, resizes it for each channel and exports the files. It works through the Canva connection, or in its own browser when the connection does not cover something. Adding designs to your account, sharing and publishing each show a card for your approval first.
Can it use our Canva brand kit?
It uses the brand kits and brand templates your Canva account can open. The agent applies the kit's fonts, colours and logos, and checks finished designs against it before you see them. In a team account, access to brand kits is set by your Canva admin, so the agent sees what your role sees.
Can it bulk create Canva designs from a spreadsheet?
Yes. Give it a Google Sheets file or a CSV and a template, and it makes one design per row, filling text and images and checking for overflow. You see a sample first, then one card covers the whole batch. It can export them as a single PDF or as separate PNG files.
Will it post my Canva designs to social media?
Not without your approval. The agent can write captions, prepare posts and suggest times, but publishing or scheduling to Instagram, Facebook or LinkedIn waits for you to allow each post, or a batch on one card. You can also take the exported files and post them yourself.
