Share and Export from PonPon Canvas
Your creations are only useful if you can get them out. Here is every way to share and export from Canvas.
Generating AI content is step one. Getting it out of the tool and into the world is step two — and it matters just as much. PonPon Canvas is designed to make sharing and exporting as frictionless as generating.
Canvas is where all your generations live. Every image and video you create on PonPon flows into Canvas automatically. From there, you can organize, compare, share, and export. This guide covers every option.
Understanding Canvas
Canvas is your workspace for AI-generated content on PonPon. Think of it as a creative dashboard where everything you generate is collected, organized, and ready for action.
Key Canvas concepts:
- Gallery view: All your generated images and videos in a browsable grid
- Collections: Organize generations into named groups (by project, client, style, etc.)
- Side-by-side comparison: Place two or more generations next to each other to evaluate
- Export panel: Download, share, or connect to external platforms
Export formats and options
Image export
AI-generated images can be exported in multiple formats:
- PNG: Lossless quality. Best for images that need to stay pixel-perfect — print, design assets, product photos. Larger file sizes.
- JPEG: Compressed with adjustable quality. Best for web, social media, and email where file size matters more than pixel-perfect fidelity.
- WebP: Modern format with excellent compression and quality balance. Ideal for website use where loading speed is critical.
You can also adjust resolution on export. Upscale images before downloading if you need higher resolution than the generation default.
Video export
AI-generated videos export as:
- MP4 (H.264): Universal compatibility. Plays on every device, every platform, every editor. This is the default and recommended format for most uses.
- WebM: Smaller file sizes with good quality. Works well for web embedding.
Choose resolution based on your target platform. 1080p is standard for most uses. Canvas preserves the native generation resolution and lets you select the output resolution on export.
Batch export
Select multiple items and export them together as a ZIP file. Useful for:
- Delivering a set of options to a client
- Downloading an entire collection for offline use
- Backing up a project's generated assets
Sharing options
Share links
Generate a shareable link for any image or video in Canvas. Recipients view the content in a clean, branded viewer without needing a PonPon account. Share links work for:
- Sending a generation to a colleague for feedback
- Posting to forums or communities for discussion
- Embedding in presentations or documents
Share links are persistent — they do not expire. You can revoke access to any shared link at any time from Canvas.
Collection sharing
Share an entire collection with a single link. The recipient sees all items in the collection in a gallery view. This is ideal for:
- Client review sessions — share 20 concepts and let them browse
- Team collaboration — everyone reviews the same set of generations
- Portfolio sharing — curate your best AI work into a presentable collection
Direct social media sharing
Canvas includes quick-share buttons for major platforms. Select an image or video and share directly to your connected accounts. The content is optimized for each platform's requirements automatically.
Collaboration workflows
Client review workflow
1. Generate content based on the client brief 2. Organize the best results into a Canvas collection 3. Share the collection link with the client 4. The client browses, favorites, and comments 5. Iterate based on feedback, adding new generations to the collection
This workflow eliminates the back-and-forth of emailing individual files and keeps everything organized in one place.
Team creative workflow
Multiple team members can work with shared collections:
1. A creative director sets up a collection and shares it with the team 2. Team members generate content and add their best results 3. The team reviews together, comparing options side by side 4. Selected items are exported for final production
Content calendar workflow
For social media managers and content creators:
1. Create a collection for each week or campaign 2. Generate a batch of images and videos 3. Export the approved content in platform-optimized formats 4. Schedule and publish through your preferred social media tool
Platform-specific export tips
Instagram and TikTok
Export in 9:16 vertical format at 1080x1920 resolution. For Instagram Stories and Reels or TikTok posts, this is the native aspect ratio. MP4 format with H.264 encoding ensures compatibility.
YouTube
Export in 16:9 landscape at 1920x1080 (1080p) or higher. YouTube handles re-encoding on their end, so upload the highest quality you have. MP4 is the recommended format.
Twitter / X
Images: PNG or JPEG under 5MB. Videos: MP4 under 512MB and 2 minutes 20 seconds. Canvas formats within these constraints automatically when you use the quick-share option.
Professional content benefits from 16:9 landscape format. Export images as high-quality JPEG or PNG. Videos perform well at 1080p MP4.
Web and email
WebP for images delivers the best quality-to-size ratio for web pages. JPEG works as a fallback for email clients that do not support WebP. Keep file sizes under 1MB for email content to avoid deliverability issues.
Export as PNG at the highest available resolution. AI-generated images typically need upscaling for large-format print. Use PonPon's upscale feature before exporting if your target is print.
Managing your Canvas library
Organization tips
- Name collections descriptively: "Q2 Campaign - Product Shots" is better than "Collection 3"
- Archive completed projects to keep your active Canvas clean
- Tag generations as you create them rather than organizing later — it takes seconds now and saves minutes later
Storage and access
Your Canvas content persists in your PonPon account. Generations are accessible from any device when logged in. For important assets, export and store a backup locally or in your cloud storage — this is good practice for any creative tool.
Cleaning up
Delete generations you will never use. A cluttered Canvas slows down your workflow and makes it harder to find the content you actually need. Regular cleanup keeps the workspace productive.
Canvas and the creative pipeline
Canvas is not just an endpoint — it is a hub in your creative pipeline. Content flows in from generation, gets organized and reviewed in Canvas, and flows out to wherever it needs to go.
The best Canvas users treat it as their creative command center: generate, compare, curate, share, export. Every step happens in one place, and the output is ready for whatever comes next.
