Envato vs Canva: Which Creative Subscription Fits You?

The first question is where you'll do the work. Envato supplies files for the apps you already use; Canva supplies templates and media inside its own editor.

• 01Envato's subscription gives unlimited downloads of 29+ million assets: stock video and photos, video templates, music and sound effects, design templates, graphics, 3D, fonts and add-ons.
• 02Envato lists templates for Adobe apps, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Affinity, Blender and Canva, so the same subscription feeds several tools.
• 03Canva Pro includes 3.6M+ templates and 141M+ premium photos, videos, graphics and audio, used inside Canva's editor rather than downloaded for other software.
• 04Envato's fonts can be installed on up to two computers per seat while you're subscribed, and music comes with stems for editors who mix their own soundtracks.

Canva is a design editor; Envato is mainly a library, with AI tools on top. If nobody on the team uses Photoshop or Premiere Pro, this round decides the comparison.

• 01Canva's drag-and-drop editor covers 1,000+ design types, from social posts and presentations to documents, websites and print, on every plan including Free.
• 02Canva Pro adds social content scheduling and 5 Brand Kits; Business adds 100 Brand Kits, approvals and team admin tools.
• 03Envato's assets are files you open in other software, plus AI tools for generating and editing images, video, voiceovers, music, graphics and mockups.
• 04Envato sells Canva templates, which is one reason designers and marketers often keep both subscriptions.

• 01Canva has a free plan with 1.6M+ templates, 4.7M+ media items, 5GB of storage and up to 20 AI uses a month. Envato has no free plan.
• 02Canva Pro costs US$144 a year for one person; Envato Core costs $198 a year billed annually, or $39 month to month ($468 a year).
• 03Envato Plus, with 200 AI credits a month, costs $39 a month billed annually ($468 a year); Canva Business costs US$250 a year per person.
• 04Envato offers students 30% off Core; Canva says eligible nonprofits and K-12 schools get most premium features free.

• 01Envato includes 20 AI credits a month on Core, 200 on Plus and 500 to 2,000 on Ultimate, across image, video, voice, music, sound, graphics and mockups.
• 02Envato lists third-party models including GPT Image 2, Flux 3, Nano Banana 2, Seedance 2.0 and ElevenLabs on Plus and Ultimate.
• 03Canva's FAQ gives Pro up to 200 Premium or 20 Ultra AI uses a month and Business up to 400 Premium or 40 Ultra, with Standard tools such as translation outside the allowance.
• 04Both sell more AI capacity: Envato through higher plans, Canva through its AI Pass add-on and, on Business, AI top-ups.

• 01Envato Teams Core costs $29 a month billed annually for 2 members ($348 a year, $174 per person), for teams of 2 to 5.
• 02Canva Business costs US$250 a year per person and adds brand kits, approvals and team admin tools; Pro can't be shared ("Only one person can use a Canva Pro account").
• 03Envato licenses each download for one project, including client work and monetized content; completed projects stay covered after you cancel.
• 04Envato's license doesn't allow music in broadcasts (TV, radio, IPTV or streaming radio) on Individual and Teams plans; its Enterprise plan offers custom licensing.
