Adobe Firefly (Video) review

Adobe's generative AI video generator inside Firefly, combining Adobe's own model with partner models like Veo, Kling, and Runway. Best for teams already inside the Adobe Creative Cloud ecosystem. Starts at $9.99/mo (2,000 credits add-on).

What's free

Daily free generation allotment that resets every day, using the Firefly Video Model and select partner models.

Key features

  • Firefly Video Model
  • Multi-model access (Veo 3.1, Kling, Luma Ray, Runway Gen-4)
  • Timeline-based editing and stitching
  • Generative credits shared across Creative Cloud apps
  • Commercially safe training data

Pros

  • Commercially-safe/IP-indemnified generation model
  • Credits shared across the whole Creative Cloud suite

Cons

  • Third-party models (Veo, Kling, Runway) cost extra credits versus Adobe's own model
  • Generative credits pool is shared, so heavy Photoshop/Premiere use competes with video generation
