If you were hoping to find undifferentiated praise or scathing hatred of canvases, you’re wrong here ;-) If you’re just looking for the list of all canvases, scroll down.
When working with canvases first started to catch on, after Alex Osterwalder and his many collaborators published Business Model Generation, it felt like a natural extension of all other ways of information becoming more visual.

The brilliant insight that seems to be the basis for the Business Model Canvas and many other great canvases: Make complex things easy to visualize in a way that helps people recognize patterns.
