Migrate from Canva

Keep Canva for craft. Move weekly batches to SnapDraft.

Migrate calendar volume from manual Canva assembly to Brand DNA + CSV batches, while keeping Canva for one-off designs.

When this switch makes sense

  • You rebuild the same brand look across dozens of posts each week
  • Your source of truth is already a content spreadsheet
  • Revisions are mostly last-mile tweaks, not net-new concepts

Keep vs move

Keep using Canva for: Canva for manual templates, presentations, and one-off creatives.

Move to SnapDraft: Weekly feed/story/banner volume driven by a spreadsheet.

Migration steps

  1. Export or recreate your weekly calendar as CSV (title, description, format)
  2. Upload 5-10 approved Canva or published posts as Brand DNA references
  3. Generate a pilot week in SnapDraft and compare against your Canva baseline
  4. Close stakeholder notes in Canvas; keep Canva for campaign one-offs
  5. Export packs into your scheduler (Later, native apps, etc.)
FAQ

Migration questions

No. Most teams keep Canva for craft and use SnapDraft for calendar-scale batches.

Feed SnapDraft the same approved visuals your brand kit represents. DNA locks palette and composition from references, not from Canva kit files directly.

One full week’s calendar is enough to judge consistency, regenerate behavior, and Canvas revision time.
