The design work, done and queued for one look
One sentence in, and a companion has been through the Canva designs, put them where you can read them, and marked the ones it was not sure about.
Open the design. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Canva afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a design until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Canva exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 5 operations, 2 reads and 3 writes. In practice that means it can create a design, upload an asset and create a design import job, and work across the designs, assets and design import jobs.
The Canva API stops at Canva. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
What does it already know about your assets?
2 of the 5 operations are reads.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can list designs and export a design, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Canva's documentation.
The designs are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the assets. A companion can hold all 5 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Canva admin becomes a queue you review.
- List Designs
- Export Design
What happens before it can create design?
All 3 write operations wait for you.
A companion can create a design, upload an asset and create a design import job, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the design, the field and the new value before it lands in Canva.
Nothing in Canva is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the design exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Create Design
- Upload Asset
- Create Design Import Job
Can it list designs every morning by itself?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Canva designs pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The operations playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the messages, the Canva designs sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
