The Agency Verdict
Canva AI is a solid tool — magic design and magic write make creation fast and huge template library for social, print, and web. For individual creators or established enterprise teams, it can absolutely justify its cost. But for marketing agencies doing project-based work, the math gets painful fast.
With Canva AI at $15/mo (Pro), a 10-person agency pays Teams $10/seat/mo (annual) — minimum 5 seats. That cost scales with every new hire and doesn't flex with workload — you pay the same whether it's a slow week or a sprint. Credits often cap your output mid-project, forcing awkward conversations with clients.
Incudo's credit-based model solves this. Your whole agency runs on one plan — unlimited seats — and you pay for AI output, not headcount. Credits roll over so nothing is wasted. When a big campaign hits, you buy more credits. When things slow down, you're not burning cash on unused seats. It's the pricing model agencies have always needed.
