The Verdict
Canva Docs is built for marketers and designers, with a focus on visual-documents and media-embedding. Webflow targets web designers and agencies and leads with visual-editor and cms.
Pricing is close: Canva Docs starts at $12.99/mo versus $14/mo for Webflow — not a deciding factor on its own.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Bottom line: Webflow has a slight overall edge — but if combines document writing with canva's design library matters most to you, Canva Docs may still be the right call.
