Adobe on December 10 announced that it has launched Photoshop, Adobe Express and Adobe Acrobat inside ChatGPT, giving the platform’s 800 million weekly users the ability to edit images, create designs and work with documents through simple conversational instructions.
The tools are available free to ChatGPT users on desktop, web and iOS. Adobe Express is available on Android, with Photoshop and Acrobat for Android launching soon.
Adobe said the integration brings its leading creative and productivity apps to a platform widely used for everyday tasks, allowing users to enhance photos, design invitations, and transform documents without leaving ChatGPT.
“We’re thrilled to bring Photoshop, Adobe Express and Acrobat directly into ChatGPT, combining our creative innovations with the ease of ChatGPT to make creativity accessible for everyone,” said David Wadhwani, president of digital media at Adobe. “Now hundreds of millions of people can edit with Photoshop simply by using their own words, right inside a platform that’s already part of their day-to-day.”
Users can access these tools by typing the name of the Adobe app along with an instruction. For instance, typing “Adobe Photoshop, help me blur the background of this image” will open Photoshop inside the chat and guide them through the process.
Photoshop inside ChatGPT allows adjustments to parts of an image, control of brightness, contrast and exposure, and use of effects. Adobe Express enables users to browse templates, update text and images and add animations. Acrobat lets people edit PDFs, extract text or tables, merge files, compress documents and redact sensitive details.
The rollout builds on Adobe’s recent work in conversational AI, including the launch of Acrobat Studio earlier this year and AI Assistants for Photoshop and Adobe Express. Adobe also previewed an AI Assistant for Adobe Firefly that will help creators move ideas across multiple Adobe apps.
