Supercharge Your Creative Workflow with Cape’s Adobe Integrations
For creative teams at leading brands and agencies, efficiency and consistency are everything. Cape’s suite of Adobe plugins (compatible with After Effects, InDesign, and Photoshop) brings powerful automation into your design workflow, enabling your team to create, manage, and deploy dynamic content faster, at scale, and always on-brand.
Whether you're producing video ads, print mater§ials, or banners for digital campaigns, Cape bridges the gap between creativity and automation so you can focus on storytelling, not formatting.
Animate at Scale with Cape’s After Effects Integration
Video is central to modern marketing. Cape’s After Effects plugin transforms your video production process by enabling dynamic video templates that scale across formats.
Key capabilities:
Multi-Format Support: Automatically generate square, vertical, banner, and landscape versions from a single AE file - ensuring brand consistency across every channel.
Smart Layer Management: Cape detects all AE layers and allows you to define which elements (e.g., product names, pricing, CTAs) are dynamic.
Automated Updates: Need to change messaging across formats? Update once; Cape applies it everywhere. Our plugin also manages resizing expressions for pixel-perfect results.
With Cape, you can scale your video output without multiplying production time.
Streamline Print Production with Cape’s InDesign Plugin
Print campaigns still play a vital role for many brands. Cape’s InDesign plugin simplifies the process of producing high-quality, brand-consistent print materials; even for users without deep design experience.
Standout features:
Template-Driven Flexibility: Empower non-designers to make fast, approved edits within flexible, brand-safe templates.
Standardized Layer Naming: Makes transitioning from native InDesign files to Cape’s dynamic environment seamless.
Faster Turnarounds: Eliminate repetitive back-and-forths with your design team, speeding up approvals and output.
Designers retain full control over brand aesthetics, while others can scale creative confidently from pre-approved layouts.
Expand Creative Capacity with Cape’s Photoshop Plugin
Cape’s Photoshop (PSD) plugin is built for teams producing high-volume banner and display content across channels.
Why it’s powerful:
Design Once, Scale Everywhere: Create once and auto-generate variants for social, display, DOOH, and print while maintaining visual integrity.
Intelligent Resizing: Cape handles auto-resizing of visual elements, so every asset looks professionally designed.
Maintain Creative Control: Designers define the rules; marketers apply them without risking brand inconsistencies.
Perfect for retail, travel, and e-commerce teams managing multiple offers, geographies, or product lines.

Our Adobe integrations are engineered to seamlessly plug into your creative workflow. No steep learning curve required.
Drag-and-Drop Simplicity: Upload your Adobe files directly into Cape. All layers are read and mapped for dynamic editing.
Auto-Resize & Layout Adjustments: Product images and text elements scale automatically based on format, preserving aspect ratios and layout integrity.
