WHO IT'S FOR
Who each tool is built for
Use cases and fit tags from each tool's own positioning. Match these to your context, not their marketing.
Marketing teams and brand managersGenerate product images and promotional graphics from text descriptions, then refine specific areas with generative fill to align outputs with brand guidelines without starting from scratch.
Video editors and post-production teamsExtend video clips by generating missing frames, trim gaps with AI-assisted transitions, and add captions from audio directly within Premiere Pro using Firefly's native integration.
Enterprise creative and marketing teamsTrain custom AI models on proprietary brand visual identity, then generate thousands of on-brand social posts, email assets, and website images that consistently match established style guides.
marketerGenerate campaign imagery directly from text briefs. Style References maintain visual treatment across new generations. Draft Mode speeds early-stage exploration before committing to full-quality outputs.
creatorGame developers and illustrators use Character References and Omni Reference (V7) to place consistent characters across multiple scenes. Personalization builds a style profile from user preferences, reducing iteration needed to maintain aesthetic direction.
