Search by main keywords for similar content in Stock inventory.

Example, cute+kitten: 

https://stock.adobe.com/search?k=cute+kitten

 

This is what Adobe Stock has to say about 'Similar Content':

 

Hope that helps.

Basically, there ios no tool available that gives you a probability for the similarity rejection. My guess is that if you do a very complex study on your keywords, metadata and image, you will get somehow a result. That result will not be very accurate, however. 

 

My conclusion: if you do that study, you can also submit and see what's the result. What you can do, however, is to submit only the best assets, cure carefully your meta data and do not submit too many assets of the same theme at the same time.

Do a search for the subject of your assets on Adobe Stock. Be relatively specific. If the results returned are between three hundred thousand to three million, your assets might stand a chance. Anything over 8 million has a greater likelihood of being rejected. But keep in mind: as far as we can tell, the rejections can often be quite random, and unique assets might well be rejected, while similar ones might be accepted. The process appears to be quite random at times, possibly based on keywords and titles. I try to come up with the most informative and unique title as I can, and used the words from that title as my initial keywords. I put Adobe's suggested keywords last in the list. Knock on wood, but for every asset I submit that gets rejected for similar content, I have four to five accepted, whether "similar" or not.
