Methodology

Design ROI is calculated by comparing current asset production costs (hours x rate x volume) plus stock media expenses against AI-assisted production costs. Time savings estimates are based on Adobe's 2025 Creative Trends survey and interviews with design teams using AI tools. Additional savings from reduced stock photo subscriptions and fewer revision cycles are included.
