Inquiry Regarding Adobe Stock Review Standards and Process


Dear Adobe Stock Team and Forum Moderators,
I would like to inquire about the current review process of Adobe Stock. Are the submitted images still being reviewed by humans, or has AI been introduced into the process?
Recently, I submitted a set of images, all of which were rejected with a very general explanation:
"Common issues that can impact the technical quality of images include exposure issues, soft focus, excessive filtering or artifacts/noise. Learn more about our technical requirements."
Previously, I had submitted similar images — same angles or concepts, with only the elements within the scene being changed — and they were all approved without any issues. This leads me to question:
What standards are currently used to evaluate submitted images?
Has there been a recent change in the review criteria?
The rejection reasons are too broad and make it difficult for contributors to identify the specific issues in their images.
Is there a way to receive more precise feedback on why an image was rejected?
Note: The same images that were rejected by Adobe Stock have been accepted without issue on other stock platforms. I would appreciate any clarification you could provide so I can better align my work with Adobe Stock’s quality expectations.
Sincerely,
