When a tier decides which model you reach
Here the partner models are named tier by tier: two in the premium plan, another in the tier below. That makes access to a particular model a property of the plan rather than of the product, so a subscriber can lose a model through a pricing change with no retirement involved. As of 2026-09-22.
| What the page is asked | What Adobe Firefly publishes | What that leaves open |
|---|---|---|
| Is a successor named | Nothing names one | Partner models are listed, not scheduled |
| What decides access to a model | The plan tier it is named in | Two lines sit in premium, one a tier below |
| How can access end without a retirement | By the tier a model is named in moving | Or by a plan being restructured around it |
| Whose models are they | House video model plus several partners | Each partner keeps its own schedule |
Inclusion rule. Read from the published plan comparison, where partner models are named against tiers. Models available in other products from the same company are not counted here. Order. The absence first, then the mechanism that replaces it.
1A second way to lose a model
Everywhere else in this register a model becomes unreachable because somebody retired it. Here it can also happen because the tier it lives in changes, which is a commercial decision with no lifecycle page attached to it.
For a production the effect is identical and the warning is worse. A retirement at least tends to produce a notice somewhere; a plan restructure produces a new pricing page.
2Naming models per tier is unusually specific
Publishing which partner model sits in which plan is more detail than most entries give, and it is what makes the gating visible at all. A reader can tell exactly which subscription reaches which engine.
That specificity is the useful part of this entry and it is a snapshot. Nothing states that a model stays in the tier it is named in, and the mapping is the thing most likely to move without any model changing.
3Partners keep their own calendars
The partner rows are made by other companies, several of which appear in this register in their own right. Their retirements are theirs to announce, and nothing here describes how such an announcement would reach a subscriber.
So this entry carries both exposures at once: another maker's schedule and its own tier structure. The register records the mapping because it is published, and records the absence of a successor because nothing about either is.
