What is a Photoshop Plugin?

Plugins extend the functionality of Adobe Photoshop, especially when it comes to repetitive and tedious design tasks. It could be basic filters, advanced colour pickers, font plugins or bulk effects – enhancements that are not available in vanilla Photoshop. Having custom coded plugins helps streamline and automate your organisations’ design flow. Have a look at some of the plugins examples that our team of experts have created at the bottom of this page.

Certified Photoshop Developers

Photoshop plugin development requires a niche expertise where developers not only need to be familiar with C++ and the Photoshop SDK, but need to be well versed with design concepts, design patterns and pixel perfect calculation. That is the value add we bring to the table with our years of experience in creating plugins for designers in creative agencies or industries where enhanced creativity is a bonus.

Design Automation

The power of automation can be realised with Photoshop plugins. Leveraging options that allow bulk conversions, image effects in 2D or 3D that helps streamline picture and image management gives you the ability to automate and push media quickly when you have to race against time. Photoshop plugins can range from organising multiple layers to mass filters to bulk resizing while retaining image quality – all the way to integrating with CMS solutions that allow direct access to stored and archived images.

Plugin Development Methodology

Engagement Models

Fixed budget

If you have a clearly defined scope of what you want the plugin to achieve, this is best way to go. Even if it’s a Phase-I or a PoC, we work with you to make sure you get high quality output at a flat cost. We are flexible based on changes and enhancements during project development.

Time & Material

Here you pay for what you use. As most projects grow, you may need dedicated or shared resources to develop your plugin inline with changing business dynamics. Plugin development costs start as low as $20 per hour.

We Believe in Building Trust

With over 100 publications under our belt, we needed a solution that would improve the page planning. Clavis did a great job integrating our content database to our InDesign workflow. It works so well and our experience of working with them has been par excellence!

Nick (Director - Operations)

We handle over 30,000 images a month. It’s not only about being able to store and track them but also have a seamless integration between our content management system and design software. After having worked with multiple software vendors, I can confidently say the team at Clavis has been a delight to work with.

Ingrid (Executive Director)

As we took our titles digital, we could see the importance of having all the content synchronised. One of the big ticket items was to make sure round tripping was possible between our print and digital content. Clavis did a fab job of putting that automation in place.

Andrew (CTO)
