Adobe has acquired Rilo, an Indian market intelligence startup. The deal marks Adobe's second acquisition from India, following its 2023 purchase of Rephrase.ai.

The acquisition strengthens Adobe's presence in the Indian tech market and expands its capabilities in data-driven business intelligence. Rilo specializes in market research and competitive intelligence, providing tools for businesses to analyze market trends and consumer behavior. Adobe has been actively expanding through strategic acquisitions. Last year's Rephrase.ai deal brought AI-powered video generation technology into Adobe's creative suite. The Rilo acquisition signals continued investment in India's growing tech ecosystem and suggests Adobe is building out analytics and intelligence features across its product portfolio. The financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. Both companies have not yet detailed how Rilo's technology will be integrated into Adobe's existing offerings or announced a specific timeline for product integration.
