Trade-offs to check
- Free plan only includes limited free daily generations; more usage requires a paid subscription
- Premium features such as video and audio generation and partner model outputs consume generative credits, which reset monthly and do not roll over
- Users are responsible for determining whether content generated by partner models is appropriate for their project; commercial-use assurance applies to Adobe Firefly models
- Higher-tier plans are needed for larger monthly credit allowances (up to 50,000 credits on Firefly Premium)
