Adobe has completed its acquisition of Topaz Labs, following the deal announced in June. Topaz remains a standalone brand, its apps and models remain available separately, and CEO Eric Yang joins Adobe’s Digital Video and Audio team. So yes, the word “standalone” survived the closing paperwork.
Topaz technology is already available through Firefly and Photoshop, with more Adobe workflows planned. Neurostream can process models locally or through Topaz’s cloud. In practical terms, that could mean fewer export, enhance, reimport rituals, assuming integration behaves itself.
We covered the original deal in Adobe buys Topaz Labs. For considerably more time spent staring at pixels, there are also our tests of Topaz Video AI 3.0, Topaz Video AI 4 and the slow-motion comparison between Topaz Video AI, Twixtor and DaVinci Resolve.
