Amazon and Canva integrate agentic AI into Quick Suite for seamless design workflows
Anwar Haneef, General Manager and Head of Ecosystem at Canva, took to social media to announce that teams using Amazon Quick Suite can now create, edit, and search Canva designs directly within their workflows.
“Excited to make it easy for teams using Amazon Quick Suite to create, edit, and search Canva designs—right inside their workflows,” Haneef wrote. “With Quick Suite’s new agentic AI capabilities, teams can now instantly generate on-brand visuals, update marketing assets, and search design libraries—all powered by Canva, without switching tools.”
Canva, known for its cloud-based visual design platform, has been expanding its enterprise integrations across marketing, education, and business collaboration tools. The new partnership connects Canva’s design tools with Amazon’s Quick Suite, a workspace for AI-driven productivity.
Expanding agentic AI across enterprise platforms
According to AWS, the new integration builds on its Model Context Protocol (MCP) system, which provides standardized and secure connections between AI agents and enterprise data. The protocol enables Quick Suite to integrate with widely used business applications such as Asana, Atlassian, Box, PagerDuty, and Zapier, eliminating the need for complex custom integrations.
In a recent AWS technical blog, the authors explained that MCP allows AI agents to “securely and seamlessly connect with organizational knowledge bases, enterprise applications, and other AI agents” to streamline collaboration and improve productivity.
Simplifying access to design tools through AI
The Quick Suite update introduces new MCP Actions integrations that allow users to trigger design-related commands through hosted servers and chat agents. This functionality enables AI-driven collaboration between design, data, and operations teams, ensuring that branded content and marketing materials can be updated directly from within enterprise systems.
By embedding Canva inside Quick Suite, AWS aims to reduce friction between creative and operational teams, connecting design processes with other tools in the enterprise ecosystem.
Creating a unified AI workspace
Amazon’s blog notes that Quick Suite’s MCP client supports multiple authentication mechanisms, including OAuth, and can integrate with servers hosted by enterprise platforms. It also connects with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway, a service that centralizes AI agent access across tools and data sources.
Through these integrations, Quick Suite users can securely invoke AI actions, such as retrieving assets, managing projects, or generating summaries, across different connected applications.
Haneef concludes: “Excited to make it easy for teams using Amazon Quick Suite to create, edit, and search Canva designs—right inside their workflows.”
