Adobe unveils Acrobat AI assistant for enterprises to boost productivity

Computer software firm Adobe has introduced its artificial intelligence (AI)-powered tool the Acrobat AI Assistant, aiming to revolutionise productivity in workplaces, tailored specifically for enterprise users, promising a significant boost in productivity. 

Integrated seamlessly into existing Acrobat workflows, the Acrobat AI Assistant is a generative AI-powered conversational engine designed to expedite document-related tasks for every employee within an organisation. 

With deployment taking mere minutes, the AI Assistant empowers users to extract high-quality insights from documents, verify them with intelligent citations, and swiftly craft emails, reports, presentations, and more. 

Crucially, Adobe assures that all features adhere to stringent data security protocols, with no customer document content being utilised for training the AI. 

“For more than three decades, PDFs and Adobe Acrobat have been a cornerstone of communication and collaboration in the enterprise and with generative AI, we’re redefining productivity for every single employee,” said Abhigyan Modi, senior vice president of Adobe Document Cloud. “Acrobat AI Assistant dramatically reduces time spent reading and searching for information, enabling employees to develop insights faster and slash the time they spend creating content.” 

Having undergone beta testing earlier this year, the Acrobat AI Assistant has already garnered praise from millions of users for its transformative capabilities. Key features include the ability to engage in conversational interactions with various document types, receive concise overviews of lengthy documents, and generate citations for easy source verification. 

Moreover, clickable links facilitate swift navigation within documents, enabling users to focus on extracting and acting upon crucial information. The tool also streamlines the process of consolidating and formatting data for various purposes, from emails to presentations, with a simple ‘copy’ button for easy sharing.
