Eddie AI

Do it in Eddie

Eddie's Premiere panel installs itself with the desktop app.

There's no separate download. The Eddie desktop app hands its panel, Eddie AI AE, to Adobe's own installer the first time you send to or import from Premiere. Creative Cloud is required. In Premiere, open it from Window > Extensions > Eddie AI AE and keep it open while you send edits.

Why is Window > Extensions greyed out?
No panel extensions are installed for this version. Reinstall the extension and restart Premiere.
Do I need admin rights to install extensions?
Usually not through Creative Cloud. Some installers ask for a password.
