Batch edit product photos with Claude and Adobe

The plugin brings tools from Photoshop, Lightroom, Express and other Adobe apps into Claude, plus skills for jobs like batch edits.

1. 1Open claude.ai or the Claude desktop app and sign in.
2. 2In the left sidebar, click Plugins. On older layouts, it's Customize > Plugins, then the Discover tab.
3. 3Search for Adobe, open the Adobe plugin and click Add.

You should see Adobe in your list of plugins.

Signing in lets Adobe run batch edits and keep your files, and setting permissions now stops pop-ups halfway through a batch.

1. 1On the Adobe plugin's page, find the Adobe connector and click Connect.
2. 2Sign in to your Adobe account, or create a free one. Don't continue as a guest if you want batch edits.
3. 3Select the connected Adobe connector again and set each tool to Always allow.

You should see Adobe marked as connected, with its tools set to Always allow.

Always allow lets Adobe tools run without asking each time. Leave a tool on ask if you'd rather approve it yourself.

One shared look makes product shots read as a single catalog, even when they were taken in mixed light.

1. 1Start a new chat. Click +, pick Add files or photos and choose up to 20 product photos.
2. 2Paste the prompt below, with your own look in place of the brackets.
3. 3If Adobe's file picker opens in the chat, pick the same photos there.
4. 4Answer Claude's questions about the look, then check the sample it shows you.

Batch edit these [NUMBER] product photos so they look like one set. Auto-straighten each photo, balance the lighting and apply the same [BRIGHT AND CLEAN] look. Keep each product's colors true to life. Show me a before and after of the first photo, and wait for my OK before you edit the rest.

You should see a before-and-after preview of your first photo, waiting for your OK.

Adobe matches the look you describe to a Lightroom preset where it can, so every photo gets the same treatment.

Store pages look tidy when every product image has the same size and shape.

1. 1Paste the prompt below in the same chat.
2. 2If Claude asks how to fit the photos, pick the option that pads the edges instead of cropping.
3. 3Look over the preview grid for any product that touches an edge.

Resize every edited photo to [1080 x 1080] pixels for my online store. Pad the edges instead of cropping, so no product gets cut off. Save each one as a JPEG.

You should see a grid of square photos, all the same size, with every product fully in frame.

Want a plain white background? Ask Adobe to cut each product out and place it on a white canvas.

Your store needs the files on your computer, and a Creative Cloud copy lets you keep working in Adobe apps.

1. 1Download each finished photo from the preview.
2. 2Signed in to Adobe? Supported work also saves to Creative Cloud, so you can open it in Adobe apps later.
3. 3To review the set side by side, ask Claude to send the edited photos to a Firefly Board.

You should see the edited JPEGs in your downloads folder.

Claude can see each photo, so it can draft listing copy for the whole batch while the photos are still in the chat.

1. 1Paste the prompt below in the same chat, with your product facts in place of the brackets.
2. 2Copy the table into a spreadsheet or your store's product import file.

Write product copy for each photo in this chat. Use the file name as the product name. For each one, give a title under 60 characters, a 2-sentence description and 3 short bullet points. Use only these facts and what you can see in the photo: [MATERIALS, SIZES, PRICES]. Return one table with columns for file name, title, description and bullets.

You should see a table with one row per photo, ready to copy.
