Adobe is doubling down on its strategy of using AI to bring more users into its product ecosystem. The company on Wednesday said it is adding features from Photoshop, Express and Acrobat to ChatGPT, letting users ask the chatbot to use these apps to edit images, modify PDFs, or animate elements.
So users can now tell ChatGPT to use Photoshop to edit specific parts of images; remove or blur the background; adjust exposure, brightness, and contrast; or apply various effects. The chatbot will also give you an option to modify the intensity of effects using sliders.
With support for Express, ChatGPT now lets users tell it to do stuff like fetch existing designs from its library, put together themed creatives, animate elements, and edit designs.
And with Acrobat’s PDF editing capabilities, ChatGPT can do things like merge files, edit or extract text or tables within a file, and do more.
If at any point you don’t feel like struggling with ChatGPT, you get an option to continue working inside Adobe’s apps to finish the job yourself or use features that are not available within ChatGPT.
Adobe said these features will be available globally. While features from all three Adobe apps are available on ChatGPT’s desktop, web and iOS apps, only Adobe Express is currently supported on ChatGPT for Android. The company says support for Photoshop and Express is coming soon.
Adobe has shipped many AI-powered features and products this year. In October, the company released AI assistants for Express and Photoshop, and also teased a cross-app assistant, dubbed Project Moonlight.

It’s unclear if Open AI and Adobe have a revenue-sharing arrangement, or
OpenAI started supporting third-party apps inside ChatGPT in October, launching with Canva, Spotify, Expedia and Figma. But as more companies work to bake in their apps within the popular chatbot, the challenge for companies will be getting people to use their app instead of a rival’s inside ChatGPT. For instance, you can use both Canva and Photoshop to edit images with the chatbot, but if you don’t use either of these apps, you might not have a preference.
