Adobe expanded Adobe Firefly on November 10 with new tools for image editing, video editing and repeatable workflows. In its Firefly announcement, Adobe distinguished edits creators can use now from tools that are still in beta, including a private preview for prototyping.
What can creators use now?
Adobe lists Edit Text, Retouch, Relight and Quick Actions in general availability. Quick Actions provide ready-made edits for individual tasks. For image work, Adobe also describes editing a single object while leaving the rest of the picture intact. For video, the company describes a simplified timeline for arranging clips, adding captions and using generation for transitions or supporting footage.
The Creative Agent powers the beta Firefly AI Assistant. Adobe says creators can use it across Firefly editors and in Boards while developing ideas. The assistant is a separate way to direct work from using an individual edit yourself.
What are Firefly Graph and Firefly Design?
Firefly Graph is in beta and focuses on repeatable workflows. A creator can combine models and production tools into a process for a recurring job, such as generating options for a campaign. Adobe says an assistant can help build that workflow. Firefly Design, also in beta, puts illustration, image, motion, 3D and print tools on one canvas for work that needs more than one format.
Can Firefly build an app or website?
Firefly Builder is in private beta through a waitlist. Adobe presents the design-to-code tool as a way to create interactive prototypes. That is a narrower claim than shipping a finished app or moving an existing production site into Firefly. Creators choosing a starting point can try an available edit first and evaluate the beta tools separately against their actual review and delivery needs.
