The verdict
Which one should you pick?
Adobe Firefly
Pick it for
- Generative fill and object removal on plates, stills and reference frames in Photoshop
- Storyboard and mood-board work in Boards, with partner models for each shot
- Filmmakers already paying for Creative Cloud who want AI inside Premiere and After Effects
Stands out
- Commercial-clearance story: Adobe's own models are trained on Adobe Stock and licensed or public-domain content, and Adobe says outputs are safe for commercial use. Partner-model outputs carry their own terms.
- Native Creative Cloud integration: generative fill, removal and expansion run inside Photoshop, and Premiere Pro and After Effects get Firefly features. Midjourney, Flux, Leonardo and Stable Diffusion have no equivalent in an NLE.
Watch out
- Image quality for photoreal hero art still trails Midjourney and Flux in most side-by-side comparisons
- Credits are consumed at different rates by model, so one plan's allowance is hard to predict across partner models
InVideo AI
Pick it for
- Short social, ad and explainer videos built from generated clips, stock and talking-head footage
- Cutting talking-head, podcast and multicam recordings: silences, filler, angle switching and chapters
- Editors who want an AI first pass and then finish in Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve
Stands out
- The AI works on a real multitrack timeline, and every edit it makes can be adjusted by hand afterwards.
- Exports an editable project to Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve with cuts and layers intact, so the AI cut can move into a finishing workflow.
Watch out
- Credits are per seat and do not roll over to the next month
- Seedance 2.0 at 4K and Seedance 2.5 are only on Plus and Max; Starter gets Seedance 2.0 Fast and Mini
