Adobe Express, the fast, easy and fun, all-in-one app, with Adobe Firefly generative AI built in now offers even more
We’re all living in a digital-first world where there's an increased need to stand out. That could be on social media, when applying for a dream job, in the classroom, or in the workplace. No matter what you’re trying to create or say, creativity and design are valued like never before. But this means that there’s an unprecedented demand for creators’ time and their bandwidth to experiment and learn new things.
Recently, we introduced the beta version of Adobe Express and have since received a lot of great feedback from users. Now, we’re happy to announce the general availability of Adobe Express on desktop web which incorporates additional improvements since the beta release.
We’re so excited about the ways Adobe Express is revolutionizing the way everyone can design and create standout content - whether it’s for work or fun, anyone can be empowered to be their most creative selves
We’re bringing new AI-first features and innovations to Adobe Express, that have been built from the ground up to represent more of the best of Adobe – design, video, animation, PDF and more – delivered in an even easier to use yet powerful all-in-one app.
The difference with Adobe has always been our industry-leading creative technology and our belief that everyone has unique creative potential. Now we’re making it possible for anyone to produce the highest-quality content that you can expect from us. The latest version of Adobe Express for desktop web brings the power and precision of Adobe’s leading photo, design, video, Adobe Firefly generative AI and document tools into a new, AI-first, all-in-one editor that’s intuitive, collaborative, and connected to other Adobe apps like Photoshop and Illustrator if you or your teammates need them.
Up your game with generative AI
With the introduction of Adobe Firefly generative AI, our new family of generative AI models for creative expression, creators are now empowered to express their creative ideas with greater efficiency without constraints. And now we’re bringing Firefly into Adobe Express workflows so creators can work more seamlessly and intuitively, taking the guesswork out of design to create anything they can imagine.
Generate truly mind-blowing and delightful content, the way you dream it up, using Generate Image and Generate Text Effect features, from images, audio, vectors, videos and 3D to creative ingredients, like brushes and color gradients, with greater speed and ease than ever before. And now Adobe Firefly language supports over 100 languages globally, making it even easier for users from all over the world to generate high-quality images, create stunning text effects, streamline workflows and improve productivity in the language of choice, all within Express. These new generative AI-driven features are available now on desktop web, with the latest version of Express coming to mobile soon.
