Adobe Firefly is Adobe's generative AI integrated across Creative Cloud apps. Generate images, remove or expand objects, and create text effects from prompts — trained on licensed content, so output is commercially safe.
Why we recommend it
Firefly represents where design tools are heading. Generative AI built directly into Photoshop and Illustrator means you get AI assistance without leaving your existing workflow, and the licensing story is cleaner than most rivals.
Strengths
- Trained on licensed content, so output is commercially safe
- Built directly into Photoshop and Illustrator
