The web-based design platform Canva has acquired Affinity, a creative software suite that includes Affinity Photo, an app similar to Photoshop that is made for professional photographers.
It’s Canva’s largest acquisition to date. The unicorn startup based in Australia says it attracts 170 million monthly global users and that Affinity has over three million customers around the world. But before today, Canva didn’t have any serious offerings for photographers, video editors, and illustrators.
“Since the inception of Affinity, our mission has been to empower creatives with tools that unleash their full potential, fostering a community where innovation and artistry flourish,” says Ashley Hewson, CEO of Affinity.
