Recraft V4.1
Design-first image family with native SVG vector generation.
About
Recraft V4.1, released May 14, 2026, is a three-variant model family built specifically for design production rather than generic image generation. The base V4.1 is the general raster model tuned for photorealism and illustration. V4.1 Vector generates real SVG output with editable paths and clean geometry, aimed at logos, typography, and icons. V4.1 Utility is the production workhorse for high-volume design where consistency across hundreds of generations matters more than peak aesthetics.
The family expanded in August 2026 with V4 Styles for style-consistent generation from 1 to 10 references, and in September 2026 with V4.1 Flash, a $0.007-per-image fast model delivering quality close to the base. V4.1 Utility Pro became a top-ranked non-Google, non-OpenAI model on public benchmarks, and the company exposes all variants through its API with a Figma plugin integration.
