The connections and AI that decide which image library a team picks

Design Asset Advocates is a buyer's desk for communication, marketing and brand teams in the Netherlands and Europe. Each review answers one question about Canva links, brand portals, face recognition with consent, automatic tagging or AI search. The facts are set out side by side so a shortlist can be made on the same basis.

Method

How each review is built

  1. 01

    One buying question per review

    Each review covers a single decision, so the reader can act on it without reading the whole market.

  2. 02

    Features named, not implied

    Integrations and AI functions are described by what they do for a team, step by step, so they can be checked in a demo.

  3. 03

    Same lines for every product

    Products are compared on the same lines, so a missing feature is visible next to the ones that are present.

  4. 04

    Europe first

    Hosting location, the GDPR and consent for portraits are treated as selection criteria, not footnotes.
