What Janvas is

Janvas is a browser-based 2D vector graphics editor for illustrators, architects, and interior designers, with illustration, page layout, technical drawing, and animation tools. It supports real-size pages, master pages, templates, photo grids, tables, and charts. For CAD work, it opens DXF files and offers dimensioned drawing, snapping, and printing to scale. Animation features include a timeline, tweens, auto-key, 38 easing options, and animated SVG export. Janvas opens its own documents plus SVG, PDF, and DXF files, and exports SVG and raster images. It reads and writes files on the user's computer; the maker says document files do not pass through its servers. The app can be installed from Chrome or Edge, but it does not work offline. It has a free plan and paid plans from €6/mo (annual). Listed options include 3 Months at €9 a month billed monthly, 6 Months at €7.50 a month billed monthly, and 1 Year at €6 a month billed annually; each has no automatic renewal. A separate subscription is €10.99 a month plus VAT, with 10 free saves before subscription. The maker is based in Pesaro, Italy.

Janvas may suit illustrators and design professionals who need vector editing alongside page layout, technical drawing, or animation tools. It is also an option for people who want a browser app that works with local files, provided they can work online.
