What is Adobe Firefly?
Firefly generates and edits images, vectors, and video with models trained on licensed content, integrated into Photoshop, Illustrator, and Express, with indemnification for enterprises.
Firefly powers Generative Fill and Expand in Photoshop, text-to-vector in Illustrator, and text-to-image and video in the Firefly web app, and it can route to partner models. Adobe trains its own models on licensed and public-domain content and offers IP indemnification on eligible plans, which matters for brands.
Commercial safety and deep integration into professional creative tools that designers already use.
