Adobe is the dominant creative and document software platform, with products including Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, Acrobat, and the Experience Cloud marketing platform. The company successfully transitioned from perpetual licenses to a subscription model (Creative Cloud), creating highly predictable recurring revenue. Adobe is now integrating generative AI (Firefly) across its product suite.
Adobe's AI story centers on Firefly — generative AI for images, video, and design. The key question is whether AI enhances Adobe's moat (by making Creative Cloud more valuable) or disrupts it (by enabling simpler tools to compete). ARR growth and net new ARR additions are the critical metrics.
