Adobe introduced its creative agent, Firefly AI Assistant, on April 15, 2026. The agent executes multi-step workflows across Creative Cloud apps such as Photoshop, Premiere, Lightroom and Illustrator from a single conversational interface, retains context across sessions, and can perform automatic revisions based on feedback from Frame.io. As reported by 9to5Mac, the public beta opened in late April with cross-app workflow automation.

The Firefly platform offers access to more than 30 generative models, including Kling 3.0, Google Veo and Runway Gen-4.5. In June 2026, Adobe expanded the agent into apps including Photoshop and Premiere and onto platforms like ChatGPT and Claude — signaling the shift of the software suite at the heart of agency production pipelines toward agent-based automation.
