The Business Canvas is a place to capture and develop those Ideas that relate directly to the overall Business, whereas the Product Canvas is a place to develop your Ideas relating to a specific Product within the Business. 

The canvas default is the Business Model Canvas, but you can also use the Lean Canvas or a custom canvas. Sections are also customizable. NOTE: Features marked with a * symbol are available for Team tier users and above.
