What is Adobe Firefly?
Firefly is Adobe's family of generative AI models and its web app for creating and editing images, video and audio. It also powers generative features inside Creative Cloud apps.
Adobe offers free daily generations without a plan, and paid Firefly Standard, Pro, Pro Plus and Premium plans (plus team versions). Paid plans include generative credits that reset each billing cycle; premium features such as video, audio and partner models draw from those credits.
Adobe states that its Firefly models are trained on licensed content and public-domain content, and that outputs from Firefly models are safe for commercial use. It also notes that you are responsible for deciding whether partner-model outputs fit your project.
