Adobe and NVIDIA to accelerate creative apps on RTX Spark

On October 15, 2026, Adobe and NVIDIA announced an expansion of their collaboration. Adobe is optimizing Photoshop, Premiere, and Substance 3D for the NVIDIA RTX Spark platform. According to the companies, AI processing, editing, color correction, and effects in these applications can run up to twice as fast.

The optimizations apply to specific features in the programs. In Photoshop, the GPU accelerates compositing, including object removal and the application of effects. In Premiere, certain post-production tasks have been accelerated, including Enhance Speech and Object Mask. In Substance 3D Painter, RTX Spark accelerates resource-intensive texture workflows.

Adobe has also updated the Frame.io cloud pipeline, moving video decoding, media preprocessing, and the creation of vector representations for search to NVIDIA GPUs. For selected transcoding and search workloads, generation of these representations became about five times faster, P95 processing latency improved by a factor of 4–5, and the search proxy became about 80% smaller. These are results for specific workloads, not a measure of performance across all workflows.

Another area of collaboration is Adobe Brand Concierge. The companies optimized the service using NVIDIA’s open Nemotron models; a version for enterprise customers is expected to become available later in 2026. NVIDIA has also selected Brand Concierge for personalized conversations on its website.
