Canvas is a compositing-style workspace. You stack images, frames, and adjustments in layers, position them precisely, preview, and export — built for visual iteration, without node graphs.
This is Canvas in the Pixio web app. It’s different from Pixio Canvas for iPad, the drawing and tracing companion app.

​
Canvas vs Boards

Reach for Canvas when the job is make this one image right.

​
Working in it

1

Create a canvas project

From the library, create a new canvas or resume one. Each canvas stores its own layered document and edits.
2

Compose in layers

Stack images, frames, and adjustments in a familiar compositing-style workspace.
3

Refine and export

Position elements precisely, preview the composition, and export when you’re happy.

​
What you work with

​
Projects are saved

Each canvas keeps its own document and edit history, so you can leave a composition half-finished and pick it up later. Everything lives in your canvas library.

​
Sharing

A canvas can be shared by link for review without a Pixio account. See Share links.

​
Credits

Composing, positioning, and exporting are free. Generating new imagery from the canvas costs credits at the model’s normal rate.
Generate elements at the size you’ll actually use. Compositing a small image into a large frame and scaling it up loses detail that no amount of layer work brings back.
Canvas design CRUD and operations are available through the API. See what you can automate.
