Superside and Canva partner to help enterprise brands scale creative work with AI

TL;DR

Superside is now a Canva agency partner. We help enterprise brands set up Canva brand systems, build template libraries, train their teams, and scale production, as 86% of in-house creative teams work beyond capacity.

Superside, the world’s largest AI-native creative agency, and Canva, the all-in-one visual communication platform, today announced a strategic partnership to help enterprise brands scale their creative operations.

By bringing together Canva's AI-powered creative platform with Superside's global talent, AI workflows and production capacity, the partnership gives enterprises the infrastructure to build robust brand ecosystems and scale the campaign work that follows.


In an era where content can be generated in seconds, judgment, craft and brand control matter more than ever. Businesses are under pressure to deliver high-quality content across more channels without adding headcount.

With 86% of in-house teams already beyond capacity, the real challenge is building a scalable, AI-native creative engine without compromising quality, consistency, or control.

The partnership reflects a broader shift in how enterprises are investing in creative. Rather than simply outsourcing more creative production, teams are increasingly pairing self-serve platforms with agency partners who can help them scale output while building more self-sufficient in-house creative teams.

Our mission at Canva is to empower the whole world to design, and that includes partnering with world-class agencies like Superside who raise the bar for what creative work can be. By bringing our incredibly simple, all-in-one creative platform together with Superside’s unmatched creativity and expertise, enterprise teams gain a unique way to scale output without compromising their brand.

Some of the world’s most recognised brands, including Pega and Macy’s, partner with Superside to deliver world-class creative at scale. Those teams can now build the powerful brand systems, skills and workflows to create and collaborate more effectively with Canva, a platform trusted by more than 265 million people worldwide, including 95% of the Fortune 500 companies.

Through the partnership, global enterprise teams get access to a Canva-certified team at Superside to help them unlock the full value of the end-to-end creative engine.

By bringing beautifully design assets, templates, governance, and AI tools together into one brand system, distributed teams can confidently create consistent, high-quality content while staying on-brand. It also provides the production support teams need to deliver work across multiple campaigns, markets and channels at once.

At Superside, we believe AI amplifies craft, it doesn’t replace it. And design expertise still matters, even as essential platforms like Canva make design accessible to everyone. This partnership is about bringing that combination — deep design expertise and AI-native workflows — to enterprise teams through Canva at a scale no one else can match.
