Adobe's new ChatGPT plugin gives users access to over 70 creative tools

Adobe released a unified plugin for ChatGPT that bundles over 70 creative tools into a single interface. The plugin gives ChatGPT users direct access to Photoshop, Firefly, Premiere, Lightroom, Illustrator, InDesign, Adobe Express, Adobe Stock, and Acrobat-all through text prompts. You need an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription to use the full range of features, though a guest mode is available with limited capabilities.

How to access the Adobe plugin

Open ChatGPT's sidebar on desktop or mobile, click "Plugins" (or "More" if you don't see it), then search for "Adobe" in the search bar. Click the "+" next to the Adobe logo with the red icon on a black background. Once logged in with your Adobe account, type @Adobe directly into the prompt field to interact with the plugin.

10 prompts to try with ChatGPT's Adobe plugin

The following prompts, generated by ChatGPT itself, demonstrate what the plugin can do across image editing, video production, and document creation:

  • Create three Instagram carousel concepts promoting a coffee shop's fall menu. Use warm autumn colors, modern typography, and leave room for your logo. Make each concept feel distinct.
  • Clean up a photo by removing background distractions, improving lighting, and making it look professional.
  • Transform notes into a polished presentation with a clean, modern 10-slide layout, icons, and visuals.
  • Build a mood board for a luxury home office inspired by Scandinavian design using neutral colors, wood textures, and minimal decor.
  • Redesign a logo while keeping it recognizable. Create three variations: minimalist, premium, and playful.
  • Create a cinematic trailer from footage with dramatic pacing, cinematic color grading, and epic title cards.
  • Repurpose a long video by turning a 20-minute YouTube video into five viral Shorts with strong hooks.
  • Make a highlight reel by finding the most exciting moments from a video and creating a one-minute reel optimized for Instagram Reels.
  • Turn footage into a 30-second TikTok with dynamic cuts, captions, zoom effects, royalty-free background music, and engaging transitions.
  • Create a PDF table from raw data.

What the plugin handles well-and what it doesn't

Image retouching, video editing, PDF creation, and color correction are among the simpler tasks the Adobe plugin handles directly. For design professionals working on social graphics, logo variations, or mood boards, the plugin acts like a fast assistant that produces usable drafts from a single prompt. The plugin also helps AI for Creatives repurpose long videos into short-form content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

But the plugin does not fully replace Adobe's classic tools for complex, detailed creative work. Complex compositing, precise color grading, and multi-track video editing still require opening the actual desktop applications.

Why this matters for creatives

For artists, designers, video editors, and marketers who spend hours inside Adobe's suite, this plugin reduces the gap between a rough idea and a finished draft. You can now brief concepts, clean up assets, and generate variations entirely within ChatGPT-without switching tabs or opening multiple Adobe tools. The plugin gives you a rapid prototype in seconds, then you refine it in the full software. That's a faster loop between thinking and producing, which matters when deadlines are tight and client feedback comes quickly.
