Google and Adobe expand partnership to integrate creative tools into Google apps

Google and Adobe announced an expanded partnership to bring Adobe's creative and productivity tools closer to everyday Google apps.

Partnership details

Google said in a company announcement on November 10, 2026, that the expanded partnership was announced at Adobe MAX. The company said switching between apps to edit a PDF or fine-tune an image can quickly break focus. The partnership will bring Adobe's creative and productivity tools directly into the Google products people use every day. It will also bring Google's frontier AI models into Adobe's apps.

What is coming

Google outlined several areas of integration:

• Work faster with PDFs: Users will soon have a direct pathway from Google Drive and Gmail into Adobe Acrobat, surfaced as a suggested app across both services, including an "Edit with" entry point in file previews.
• Create right where you search and chat: Adobe is expanding its connectors in Gemini and Gemini Enterprise with Acrobat and additional creative tools. Adobe will also bring its creative tools to AI Mode in Google Search.
• Powering creatives and enterprises: Businesses will be able to use Adobe's CX Enterprise Coworker agent in Gemini Enterprise, an AI assistant that helps teams design graphics, work with PDFs, and launch marketing campaigns without switching apps.
• Exploring editing experiences with DeepMind: Adobe and Google DeepMind will explore new editing capabilities for creative professionals, starting with an image model for Photoshop that could enable near-real-time edits.

Why it matters

The expanded partnership connects Adobe's creative and productivity tools with Google's everyday apps, including Google Drive, Gmail, Gemini, Gemini Enterprise, and AI Mode in Google Search. It also brings Google's frontier AI models into Adobe's apps and involves collaboration between Adobe and Google DeepMind on new editing capabilities for creative professionals.
