Adobe has expanded its AI-driven product strategy by integrating features from Photoshop, Adobe Express and Acrobat into ChatGPT, allowing users to perform advanced image edits, design tasks and PDF modifications directly through natural-language prompts inside the chatbot.
The company announced on Wednesday that ChatGPT users can now instruct the bot to edit specific parts of images, adjust exposure, remove backgrounds, blur elements, or apply effects using Photoshop tools. Sliders will allow users to control effect intensity.
Through Express integration, users can pull existing designs, create themed graphics, animate elements, or modify layouts. Acrobat tools will enable PDF editing, text extraction, file merging and other document-management functions.
If users need more control, ChatGPT will offer the option to continue the task inside Adobe’s native apps.
The features are being rolled out globally across ChatGPT’s desktop, web and iOS platforms. On Android, only Adobe Express is currently supported, with Photoshop and Acrobat capabilities coming soon.
Adobe has been aggressively embedding AI across its suite, releasing AI assistants for Express and Photoshop in October and previewing a cross-application assistant known as Project Moonlight. The partnership comes as ChatGPT expands its ecosystem of app integrations, which already includes Canva, Spotify, Expedia and Figma.
Industry analysts say the rising number of third-party integrations inside ChatGPT could intensify competition among creative software vendors, as users may prefer whichever tool is easiest to access through their chatbot workflows.
