Recraft introduced the fourth version of the model. The team calls it a full rebuild from scratch: the focus shifted from generating images for references to professional print production and vector graphics.
300 DPI export and CMYK
The biggest pain for print designers is solved. Recraft V4 outputs high-resolution files and immediately converts them into the CMYK color profile. Posters, packaging, and catalogs can be sent to print without extra processing.
Exploration Mode
Instead of a single image you get a matrix of 8 visual interpretations of the same prompt. This speeds up style search: you pick a promising direction and refine it, rather than spending credits on iterating one-off variants.
Prompts up to 10,000 characters
The model learned to hold complex composition in extremely long descriptions. V4 understands lighting nuances and appearance details even when the text takes several pages. Prompt adherence accuracy has increased.
Clean vector and detail
Vector lines became cleaner, shapes more stable, and icons require fewer fixes in Illustrator. When scaling raster, skin and material textures are preserved, and small UI elements don't turn into mush.
Recraft V4 moves generative design from experiments into real production. The tool meets technical requirements that previously had to be finished in external software.
