Adobe Photoshops launches on web with popular AI tools

Adobe Photoshop soon to be available on the web from September 27 with popular AI tools and features from the desktop

After two years in beta, Adobe Photoshop will now be available on the web service from September 27. The simplified online version is a desktop photo editing app with popular tools like generative fill and generative expand.

Powered by Adobe Firefly generative AI model, the features will be available for commercial use and will allow users to quickly add to, remove from, or expand an image using text-based descriptions in over 100 languages.

Photoshop on the web, has similar features and tools as the desktop version, except a redesigned layout for a more 'streamlined' user experience. This will also include the Contextual Task Bar, added this year to the desktop Photoshop app, which suggests the most relevant steps to take in your workflow. Adobe intends to add desktop features like the patch tool, pen tool, smart object support, polygonal lasso, and more "soon.”

The web Photoshop will enable users to collaborate on projects with others by inviting them , allowing users without an active Photoshop description to view and comment on files. The web-based Photoshop is included in its paid plans starting at $9.99/month. The service won't be available for free to users at launch.

The company had previously said that it hoped to offer a free version of Photoshop but Adobe’s senior vice president of digital media, Ashley Still, told The Verge that Adobe “does not have immediate plans for a freemium offering” and that new users can instead check out Photoshop on the web through “free interactive demos and in-app tutorials” on Adobe’s website.
