Adobe has announced that its Adobe for creativity connector is coming soon to Google Gemini. The announcement was made during Google I/O 2026 as part of the companies’ expanded partnership around AI-powered creative workflows.
Adobe said the response to its recently introduced creative agent technology and Adobe for creativity connector for Anthropic Claude has been strong, reflecting increasing interest in AI-assisted creative workflows.
The company added that hundreds of millions of Gemini users will soon be able to create imaging, design, and video content directly inside Gemini using natural language prompts.
Adobe creative agent and Firefly AI Assistant
Adobe’s workflow system is powered by its creative agent technology, which runs through Adobe Firefly Firefly AI Assistant. Adobe describes Firefly as an all-in-one creative AI studio designed to manage multi-step creative workflows.
According to the company, users only need to describe what they want to create, while the AI system determines which tools should be used and how the workflow should proceed.
Core workflow functions
- Connects the required Adobe tools automatically
- Arranges tools in the required workflow sequence
- Handles multi-step editing and generation tasks
- Requests approval or feedback during workflows
- Reduces repetitive manual work
- Keeps users in control of creative decisions
Adobe says the full Firefly AI Assistant experience includes:
- More than 60 pro-grade creative tools
- Workflow visibility features
- Multi-model AI generation support
Supported Creative Cloud apps include:
- Adobe Photoshop
- Adobe Illustrator
- Adobe Premiere Pro
- Adobe Express
Adobe also stated that the Adobe for creativity connector for Claude currently provides access to more than 50 pro-grade tools directly inside Anthropic’s AI platform.
Gemini workflow integration
With the upcoming integration, Adobe plans to make its creative workflows available directly within Gemini. Users will reportedly be able to begin ideation inside Gemini, continue projects in Firefly Boards, and further edit content across Creative Cloud applications.
Adobe shared an example involving a business owner creating a campaign idea inside Gemini and converting it into multiple content formats without switching between applications manually.
Workflow outputs mentioned by Adobe
- Product mockups
- Social media assets
- Resized content formats
- Video variations
Adobe also reiterated that its long-term goal is to make professional creative tools available wherever creative work takes place, instead of limiting those tools only to Adobe platforms.
Early creator experiences
Adobe highlighted examples from creators testing Firefly AI Assistant and the Claude connector.
One photographer reportedly used the assistant to transform standard portraits into cinematic images with richer lighting, improved composition, and more detail. Instead of manually coordinating steps across Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, the creator described the desired outcome while the assistant handled the workflow and paused for approvals before continuing.
Another creator used the Adobe for creativity connector inside Claude to upload a single image and generate optimized versions for multiple platforms, including:
- YouTube
- X (formerly Twitter)
Adobe said the workflow could also update outputs dynamically when users requested changes such as color adjustments during the editing process.
The company added that reducing the gap between an idea and the final result can help creators experiment with more creative directions while reducing the amount of manual rework required.
Availability
Adobe confirmed that the Adobe for creativity connector for Google Gemini will roll out in the coming weeks.
The company has not yet announced supported regions, pricing information, or wider availability details. Adobe also said it plans to continue expanding its roadmap around agentic creativity and AI-powered creative workflows.
