Key Notes
- Adobe and Google plan to expand Acrobat and creative tools across Google Workspace, Gemini, Gemini Enterprise and AI Mode in Search.
- Google’s image, video and Gemini models will reach more Adobe workflows, building on existing access to models such as Veo and Nano Banana.
- Adobe and Google DeepMind are exploring near-real-time Photoshop editing, while the announcement does not provide a common rollout date or bundled price for the expanded integrations.
Adobe and Google are expanding their AI partnership to connect creative work and document editing across more of their products. The agreement, announced at Adobe MAX on November 10, will bring Acrobat into Google Workspace, broaden Adobe’s presence in Gemini and introduce more Google AI capabilities across Adobe applications.
The companies announced a two-way expansion: Adobe’s tools will become accessible from more Google services, while Google’s models will support more tasks inside Adobe software. The practical aim is to reduce the app-switching involved in moving from an idea or document to a finished design, presentation or video.
Acrobat heads into Gmail and Google Drive
Acrobat will appear as a suggested application in Google Drive and Gmail, including an “Edit with” option in file previews. The integration gives people a direct route from the services where they receive or store PDFs into Adobe’s document tools.
Adobe also plans to expand its existing Gemini and Gemini Enterprise connectors with Acrobat and additional creative capabilities, and bring creative tools to AI Mode in Google Search. Its current Gemini connector already supports selected tasks across Photoshop, Lightroom, Firefly and Adobe Express. Adobe’s connector page lists examples including batch photo edits, branded mockups and resizing assets.
Google models reach more Adobe workflows
Google’s latest image and video models will continue to reach Firefly, Photoshop, Premiere and Express through the expanded collaboration. Adobe says its customers can already use models including Gemini Omni, Veo and Nano Banana. The agreement builds on Firefly’s partner-model approach, which lets creators choose among different providers within Adobe’s editing environment.
The Gemini model family will also join the range of models powering Acrobat’s AI capabilities. Those features help people understand document contents, edit PDFs through conversation and prepare materials such as presentations, resumes and reports. Google’s role therefore extends beyond generating images and video into everyday document work.
For Adobe, distributing tools through conversational interfaces is becoming a broader strategy. The company has also brought Photoshop, Express and Acrobat into ChatGPT. Expanding across Google’s collaboration, search and AI products creates additional entry points into its creative and productivity software.
DeepMind research looks toward faster Photoshop edits
Adobe and Google DeepMind will explore new AI editing capabilities, beginning with Photoshop. One possibility is customizing a Google image model to enable near-real-time changes, allowing users to describe an adjustment and choose among variations while working. That remains an area of collaboration rather than a newly available Photoshop feature.
The companies did not announce a single bundled price or common rollout schedule for all the additions. Access to the existing Gemini connector also has conditions: Adobe says some tools require an eligible paid plan, and compatibility and availability vary.
