notes: >-
  Adobe Creative Cloud has tier-based subscription plans (Photography,
  Single App, All Apps) plus Teams, Business, Enterprise, and Education
  variants. Public list pricing exists at adobe.com/plans but WebFetch
  against adobe.com timed out repeatedly during reconciliation; tier
  structure is confirmed via Wikipedia (Photography, Single App, All Apps,
  All Apps + Adobe Stock) but USD list prices are not embedded here.
  Generative-credit allowances are bundled with each plan.
description: >-
  Adobe Creative Cloud is sold as a tier-based monthly or annual
  subscription. Plans differ by app coverage, included cloud storage, and
  generative-credit allowance. Teams and Enterprise SKUs add the Adobe
  Admin Console for centralized seat management.
