Efforma Adapt · Available now

Your in. Every format out. Still layered.

Adapt reads the file you already made and produces the formats your campaign needs, as editable PSD and AI, not flattened exports. There is no template to build first.

You didn’t spend ten years learning design to move a logo 40 pixels.

The current method

Duplicate the file. Resize the canvas. Reposition the logo. Reflow the headline. Fix the ragging. Check the safe area. Export. Rename. Check again.

Then the client changes the headline.

With Adapt

One upload.
Every size in one job.
Layers intact.

Rook: “Every size, by Thursday.”

Rook, with the brief

The person doing this work is usually the most skilled person in the room. That’s the part that should bother everyone.

How it works

It reads the design before it moves anything.

Resizing is arithmetic. Adaptation is design: deciding where the headline goes on a canvas of a different shape, what stays together, and what must not crop. Adapt does that part.

  1. 1

    Upload

    A layered PSD (RGB or CMYK, 8-bit), an Illustrator file saved PDF-compatible, or an SVG. Nothing is flattened on the way in: type layers, groups, masks, smart objects and blend modes are read as they are. Point and paragraph text carry their real transform-scaled metrics, so type comes through as type.

    For an Illustrator file with several artboards, you choose one.

  2. 2

    Check what each layer is

    Adapt lists every layer with its best guess at what it is: background, image, headline, logo, call to action, price, legal and more. You correct the guesses in one column, once. Layer names such as head/ or logo/ can do it in advance.

    Missing fonts are named here, and nothing is generated until they’re supplied.

    Pim has never seen your file either. Adapt shows its guess for every layer, so you can put it right before anything moves.

  3. 3

    Choose sizes

    Landscape, Portrait (beta), or a custom size from 16 to 6,000 pixels a side. Up to 5 sizes in one adapt (2 on Free). Adapt suggests which shape to design first: the hardest one, because decisions carry downhill and not up.

  4. 4

    Compare the readings

    For each size, Adapt reads the design several ways: as measured, stacked, centred, in two halves, and composed. It recommends one and says why in plain words. Every option shows the design checks it passes and the ones it fails.

    As measured
    Stacked
    Two halves
    ComposedRecommended
    Illustration. Each reading shows the design checks it passes and fails. The recommendation comes with a reason, for example: “fills the canvas better than the default by 11 points.”
  5. 5

    Direct it

    One-click comments in design language: Bigger, Smaller, More air, Tighter, Range left, Centre it. Each gets an answer: done, already done, or refused with the reason. A comment that would break a design rule is refused rather than applied.

    Or switch to edit mode and drag, scale and rotate any layer yourself. Every layer you moved by hand is listed and can be put back where Adapt placed it.

    “I did not: nothing here fills half the canvas.”

    Every comment gets an answer: done, already done, or refused with the reason.
  6. 6

    Export

    Each size comes back as a PNG and a layered file in the source’s own format: a PSD for a PSD, an AI for an AI. Text stays live. Vectors stay vector. Adapt does most of the job and hands the last part back to you, in your own tool.

    A layered file opened up: background, hero photo as a smart object, the logo as vector, the headline as live text and the legal line as a group, each still its own layer.

Design checks

It explains every decision, and it can say no.

Every layout option is checked against eight rules drawn from how designers actually adapt. Each check passes, fails, or says it can’t judge this one. No rule may reject a designer’s own work.

  1. Check 1The background still covers the canvas
  2. Check 2The most important element stays the most important
  3. Check 3A group stays a group
  4. Check 4No new overlaps
  5. Check 5Small items keep their edge
  6. Check 6A margin is kept
  7. Check 7The canvas is used
  8. Check 8The design takes the room at a consistent scale

Illustrator

Your .ai file comes back as an .ai file.

“Live vector output is the part nobody else does.”

Most tools that touch an Illustrator file rasterise it. Adapt doesn’t. It reads the actual content stream, the real paint operators rather than a preview image, so vector paths stay vector paths, artboards stay artboards, and text stays live and editable as long as the font is installed.

Bounding boxes come from true Bézier geometry, so elements land where they should. Where one layer holds several distinct objects, Adapt separates them by geometry so each can be placed on its own.

Campaign series · Plus and Pro

One layout. Ten versions.

Swap the image and headline to make up to 10 versions of an approved adaptation, same layout guaranteed. A new photo is cropped into the approved frame around its focal point. Everything comes back as layered files in one ZIP.

Memory

Fix it once.

Approved layouts and every correction you make by hand are remembered per design and shape, and offered back next time. Patterns across designs become proposals a person approves. Nothing changes behind your back.

Manual controls

Set it yourself.

Prefer to place things by hand? Per-layer anchors (left, right, top, bottom, centre, proportional, stretch), fit, a focal point for crops, and position, scale and rotation overrides are all still there.

Everything else asks you to rebuild your work first.

Template platforms

Re-author the campaign as a parametric template before automation pays off. Reasonable at 500 assets a month. Absurd at twenty.

Bulk image tools

Operate on flat JPG and PNG. Generative fill invents background that wasn’t there. Type is pixels. Output isn’t editable.

By hand

Accurate, slow, and the most expensive hour in the studio.

Adapt

The file you already made, in. A layered file out. Setup time: zero.

Where Adapt isn’t the answer: if you’re generating thousands of feed-driven product variants every day, you want a template platform, and we’ll tell you so rather than sell you this.

Proof

Open the output before you sign up.

Every claim on this page comes down to whether the file we hand back is genuinely editable. The compatibility page lists exactly what comes through and what doesn’t.

  • PSD → PSD · layers, groups, live type, smart objects
  • AI → AI · vector paths, live text, artboards
  • PSD, AI or SVG → PNG · when you just need the export

Hem asks what could go wrong.

So do we. Four things to know before your file goes anywhere.

How we handle filesSee what Adapt supports

  • Your files

    Encrypted in transit and at rest, stored and processed in the EU. Deleted on your schedule: an hour after you finish, after 24 hours, or after 30 days.

  • Your work

    We do not train any model on your files. This is in our terms, not just on this page.

  • Your fonts

    If a font is missing, Adapt stops and tells you. It will not substitute one silently.

  • What doesn’t work yet

    We publish the full list of file features Adapt handles, degrades, or rejects, including the ones that fail quietly.

Give the studio its hours back.
