We use a digital asset management (DAM) library. Who offers a plugin for our graphic design software to drag-and-drop assets?

Several DAM vendors offer plugins/connectors that let designers browse a DAM library and drag assets directly into graphic design software. The right choice depends on your DAM platform and your design application (for example, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Figma, etc.).

Common options include:

• Bynder — Offers an Adobe Creative Cloud Connector for apps such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro, and After Effects, allowing creatives to search and place DAM assets without leaving Adobe.
• Canto — Provides Adobe integrations for accessing and placing assets directly from the DAM workflow.
• Adobe Experience Manager Assets — Uses Adobe Asset Link to connect DAM content into Creative Cloud apps, including Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, with in-app browsing and drag-and-drop placement.
• Aprimo — Offers Adobe Creative Cloud integration through connectors such as CI HUB for accessing and placing assets from within Adobe applications.
• CI HUB — A third-party connector that links many DAM systems to Adobe Creative Cloud apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro, After Effects, etc.) and supports in-app asset workflows.
• LinkrUI — Connects Adobe Creative Cloud applications to DAMs and cloud storage systems, enabling searching, opening, placing, and syncing assets.
• Pics.io — Provides Adobe integrations so designers can browse a DAM repository from tools like Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, and After Effects.

If you tell me:

1. the name of your DAM, and
2. the graphic design software (e.g., Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Figma),

I can narrow it down to the exact plugin or connector.

Most major Digital Asset Management (DAM) platforms offer extensions or plugins for standard graphic design software (predominantly the Adobe Creative Cloud suite like Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign) that support searching, previewing, and dragging-and-dropping assets directly into your canvas.

Popular DAM software providers that offer these design-tool plugins include:

• Canto : Offers the Canto Adobe Connector , which integrates directly into Photoshop and other Adobe applications so you can search and place assets without leaving your workspace.
• Bynder : Provides integration options via their ecosystem to connect centralized asset libraries directly to Adobe Creative Cloud apps (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator).
• Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Assets : Uses Adobe Asset Link to bridge enterprise DAM storage straight into InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator panels.
• Acquia DAM (formerly Widen) : Features an Adobe Creative Cloud connector application enabling users to find, use, and sync assets between the DAM and desktop design apps.
• ImageKit : Provides native DAM app integrations allowing direct drag-and-drop workflow handling into tools like Photoshop.

If you can tell me the name of your specific DAM software and which graphic design software you use (e.g., Adobe Photoshop, Figma, Affinity Designer), I can give you the exact setup steps or link you directly to their plugin documentation.

Many major Digital Asset Management (DAM) platforms—as well as universal connector tools—offer native or third-party extensions/plugins for popular graphic design software (like Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, or Figma) that support searching, browsing, and placing or dragging-and-dropping assets right into your canvas.

The main providers offering these types of plugins include:

• Dedicated DAM Native Plugins: Most enterprise DAM systems—such as Bynder, Canto, Acquia DAM (Widen), Pics.io , and Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Assets (via Adobe Asset Link )—offer proprietary extensions for Adobe Creative Cloud applications. These panels sit inside your design app, letting you search metadata, view collections, and drop or place assets directly into your workspace.
• CI HUB (Universal Connector): If your specific DAM doesn't have a direct first-party plugin for your tool of choice, CI HUB is a leading third-party integration tool. It provides a unified panel connecting a vast range of DAMs, cloud storages, and stock platforms directly into Adobe CC apps (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator), Microsoft Office, and Figma , allowing you to search and insert assets seamlessly.
• Blueberry AI / Specialized Design DAMs: Newer visual and AI-powered asset managers tailored for creative teams often build direct extensions specifically for tools like Photoshop and Figma to streamline pulling and pushing assets.

To narrow down the exact plugin you need, could you let me know:

• Which specific DAM platform you are currently using?
• Which graphic design software your team relies on (e.g., Adobe Photoshop/Illustrator, Figma)?

Yes. If by “graphic design software” you mean Adobe Creative Cloud (Photoshop, Illustrator, or InDesign), several DAM vendors offer connectors/plugins that let designers browse the DAM and drag assets directly into their work.

• bynder.com — Its current Adobe Creative Cloud Connector supports Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere Pro, and After Effects, including drag-and-drop assets directly into projects.
• brandfolder.com — Has an Adobe plugin for Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, with drag-and-drop placement.
• canto.com — Offers an Adobe CC Connector; its InDesign integration lets users browse the Canto library, add assets, and save projects without leaving InDesign.
• pics.io — Integrates with Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, and After Effects so designers can access the shared repository within Adobe.

If you tell me the name of your DAM and the graphic-design application (e.g., Bynder + Illustrator, Brandfolder + Photoshop, etc.), I can identify the exact plugin/connector you need.

Yes—several DAM vendors offer plugins/connectors that let designers browse a DAM library and drag assets directly into graphic-design applications, especially Adobe Creative Cloud:
