Recraft V3 came out Oct 30 2024 and is their 2025 main image model. It can handle long text inside images showing multiple lines that stay readable and where you expect them. Something most others don’t do that well at the time of V3 release.
It works with both raster and vector formats. So it fits stuff like logos, icons or anything that needs to scale.
You get exact layout control. That means you can place text or pictures right where you want in the design.
It’s good for editing images too. The API lets you do things like inpaint, outpaint, remove backgrounds, upscale or make mockups.
It got the top spot on “Artificial Analysis” test with an Elo score of 1172 beating Midjourney V6 and others.
It was made for design work with focus on brand match, correct anatomy, looks and prompts that hit the mark.
You can set style references and get vectors.
