Adobe has officially launched its flagship applications Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Express and Adobe Acrobat inside ChatGPT, allowing users to perform image editing, graphic design and document tasks directly through the AI chatbot interface. This marks a major expansion of Adobe’s AI strategy and makes its popular creative and productivity tools available to ChatGPT’s 800 million weekly users.
What This Integration Does
With the new integration, users can simply tell ChatGPT what they want to do and the appropriate Adobe tool will be invoked to complete the task. This means you can:
• Edit and enhance photos with Photoshop — adjust brightness, contrast, fix backgrounds, apply creative effects, and more.
• Create or personalize designs with Adobe Express using templates, animations and graphic elements.
• Manage and edit PDFs with Acrobat — merge files, extract text or tables, compress documents, convert formats, and redact content
These capabilities are accessed by typing natural language prompts such as “Adobe Photoshop, help me blur the background”, after which ChatGPT automatically calls the right app and guides users through the process.
Free Access and Platform Availability
Adobe says the integration is available for free to all ChatGPT users on desktop, web and iOS, with Android support rolling out soon — Express is already live on Android, with Photoshop and Acrobat coming shortly.
Why This Matters
This move brings powerful creative tools that were traditionally confined to standalone software directly into conversational AI, lowering barriers for casual creators, students, professionals and businesses alike. Users no longer need to switch between applications — they can perform complex content creation and document management within a single chat interface.
Adobe’s approach with these integrated apps reflects a broader industry trend to embed professional tooling into AI platforms, making advanced functionality more accessible through natural language.
What Experts Are Saying
Industry observers note that this move strengthens both Adobe’s and OpenAI’s positions in the growing AI ecosystem, offering users seamless access to trusted creative tools while pushing conversational AI deeper into practical workflows. The Verge
