You can use Adobe Firefly for free with an Adobe account. However, the AI avatar generator is categorized as a premium feature within Firefly. Standard features often use a few credits or are unlimited with paid plans. Premium features, such as the AI avatar generator, require a higher number of credits per generation. Therefore, while you can explore premium features with your complimentary free credits, using the AI Avatar generator will need more credits than are available on the free tier. We invite you to learn more about Firefly plans and credit usage guidelines to ensure you have the creative capacity you need.

Models like Gemini 2.5 Flash, Gemini 3, GPT Image, FLUX, Ideogram, and Imagen support text-to-image and vector workflows, giving you strong control over facial features, lighting, proportions, and overall avatar style. Since these models sit directly inside Firefly, you can choose the one that best matches the look and personality you want for your avatar.
Firefly supports all major desktop browsers, including Chrome, Edge, Firefox (v113 or later), and Safari (v17.4 or later), and requires a minimum of 4GB of memory on Windows 10, macOS 12, or ChromeOS, with JavaScript enabled. On mobile, Firefly is available for iOS 17.4 and Android 9.0 (Pie) or later, allowing you to create and edit visuals from virtually any device.

This can lead to improved understanding and better information retention compared to content that relies solely on a full instructor presence.

For social media, avatars and virtual influencers can increase engagement and support scalable content strategies, as long as authenticity is maintained and the avatar remains aligned with the brand’s voice and values.
