What is Frame.io?
Frame.io adds a project-aware AI Assistant as Adobe deepens its Creative Cloud embedding
Frame.io, now an Adobe Creative Cloud app, is a video and creative collaboration platform for uploading, reviewing, commenting on, and sharing media. Recent releases cluster around three things: deeper Adobe integration (Top App Bar presence, zero-click auth, an After Effects V4 panel), sharing and admin controls (Share Lists, role-based download permissions), and a new AI and early-access push via Frame.io Labs and a project-aware AI Assistant.
What is Pitch?
Pitch turns AI-native — from 25+ slide actions to a full deck-building Agent — while adding enterprise controls.
Pitch is a presentation platform that has moved decisively toward AI-assisted deck creation. Over the past year it layered in 25+ AI slide actions, built-in AI image generation, and now Pitch Agent — a chat-driven agent that generates on-brand, editable decks from real templates. In parallel it is hardening for larger teams with teamspaces and SCIM provisioning.

Frame.io adds a project-aware AI Assistant as Adobe deepens its Creative Cloud embedding
◆ Current state
Frame.io, now an Adobe Creative Cloud app, is a video and creative collaboration platform for uploading, reviewing, commenting on, and sharing media. Recent releases cluster around three things: deeper Adobe integration (Top App Bar presence, zero-click auth, an After Effects V4 panel), sharing and admin controls (Share Lists, role-based download permissions), and a new AI and early-access push via Frame.io Labs and a project-aware AI Assistant.
◆ Where it's heading
Two forces shape the direction. Adobe is making Frame.io a first-class Creative Cloud citizen — one click from every Adobe app, auto-authenticated, embedded in Premiere and After Effects — while consolidating the platform on the V4 API as V2 sunsets in December 2026. In parallel, Frame.io is opening an AI front: Labs as a fast feedback channel and an AI Assistant that acts on projects, summarizes feedback, and generates media.
◆ Prediction
Expect the AI Assistant to graduate from Labs toward Beta and GA with more actions and tighter Adobe model integration, more Labs experiments, and continued Creative Cloud embedding. Integrators should plan around a V4-only future as the V2 API sunsets.

Pitch turns AI-native — from 25+ slide actions to a full deck-building Agent — while adding enterprise controls.
◆ Current state
Pitch is a presentation platform that has moved decisively toward AI-assisted deck creation. Over the past year it layered in 25+ AI slide actions, built-in AI image generation, and now Pitch Agent — a chat-driven agent that generates on-brand, editable decks from real templates. In parallel it is hardening for larger teams with teamspaces and SCIM provisioning.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is clear: automate deck creation end to end — the Agent generates, refines via chat, and acts as a creative partner — while making Pitch safe for enterprise rollout via segmented teamspaces, SCIM, and expiring links. Editor quality-of-life work continues underneath, but the headline bets are agentic generation and team-scale administration.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued investment in Pitch Agent — deeper chat refinement and brand fidelity — alongside more enterprise controls following teamspaces and SCIM.
