Adobe and NVIDIA Expand Collaboration to Speed Agentic Creation

Adobe and NVIDIA have expanded their partnership to optimize Adobe's flagship tools, including Adobe Photoshop, Premiere, Substance 3D, Frame.io, and Brand Concierge, delivering faster AI-powered creation, production and personalization.

This work builds on Adobe and NVIDIA’s strategic partnership announced in March, which brings together Adobe's creative and marketing workflows, models, and technology with NVIDIA's open models, libraries, research, and accelerated computing to accelerate creative, production, and marketing workflows across video, images, 3D, and other creative media. That collaboration includes GPU acceleration for media ingestion and intelligence in Frame.io, as well as ongoing work around Adobe Substance 3D, Adobe Firefly Foundry, and 3D digital twin workflows for enterprise customers.

"Creative workflows are more multimodal than ever, with many projects spanning images, video, audio, motion, and 3D, making performance critical to helping creatives stay focused on their ideas and craft," said Deepa Subramaniam, vice president of product marketing for creative professionals at Adobe, in a statement. "By partnering with NVIDIA to optimize Photoshop, Premiere, and Substance 3D for RTX Spark and accelerating Frame.io in the cloud, we're delivering the performance creatives need to bring their ideas to life."

"AI agents are helping creators unlock deeper and richer workflows using the Adobe applications they know and love," said Jason Paul, vice president of local AI at NVIDIA, in a statement. "Powered by RTX Spark, Adobe's optimized tools deliver up to two times faster performance to accelerate these new workflows."

Adobe is also bringing the power of the NVIDIA RTX Spark superchip, which NVIDIA launched earlier this month, to its agentic creative applications Photoshop, Premiere and Substance 3D. RTX-accelerated and optimized to take full advantage of RTX Spark’s unified memory and AI compute, these applications deliver up to 2x faster AI processing, editing, color and effects, helping creatives iterate faster and stay in their creative flow.

Adobe rearchitected Photoshop around GPU-accelerated compositing to be faster and more responsive for creative tasks from removing distractions with the Remove Tool to applying effects like Gaussian Blur and Light Leaks directly on canvas.

Some of the most demanding post-production workflows in Premiere, from playback and rendering, to effects, color and AI-powered tools, are RTX-accelerated and optimized for RTX Spark. This results in real, tangible speed gains for popular audio and video features in Premiere like Enhance Speech and Object Mask. For 3D artists using Substance 3D Painter, RTX Spark speeds up the heaviest steps around texturing.

Adobe is also using NVIDIA accelerated computing to speed cloud media processing and intelligent content discovery for Adobe Frame.io, helping production teams find and use growing media libraries faster. The updated Frame.io pipeline uses NVIDIA video acceleration, including NVIDIA NVDEC for hardware-accelerated decoding and NVIDIA TensorRT with CUDA for content preprocessing and embedding generation.

Moving compute-intensive video decoding, preprocessing, and embedding generation onto NVIDIA GPUs lets Frame.io process media faster and make it searchable sooner, while supporting more responsive discovery across large content libraries.
