DESIGN
Velocity5.0

Recraft speeds up its own Flash model while adding MiniMax image and video.

ai-designmulti-modelimage-generationvideo-generationapi
◆Current state
Recraft is an AI image and design studio that runs its own V4.1 models alongside third-party image and video models. November brought Logo Maker, GPT Image 2.6, an API Portal, prompt-free Vary, Gemini Omni Flash 1.2 and Vectorizer Pro. On 12 and 13 November it added four MiniMax H3 image and video models and replaced its V4.1 Flash with Flash V2, which renders text and photo-like images better at 1.1 seconds per image for the same price.
◆Where it's heading
Recraft is running two tracks at once: improving its own fast model so it stays the default for everyday work, and adding outside models almost weekly so users do not leave for them. Video is becoming a regular part of that lineup.
◆Prediction
Expect more third-party video models and further V4.1 point updates, likely a quality update to the standard V4.1 model after Flash V2.

    Cleaner Vectors and the New Vectorizer Pro

    Generated and converted vectors now keep smooth curves, straight lines and sharp corners, with Vectorizer Pro available on every plan. It strengthens the vector output that sets Recraft apart from general image tools, alongside the Logo Maker launched earlier in the month.

    API Portal: See and Manage Your Recraft API Usage

    The API Portal gives API customers usage by model, a request log with CSV export, error rates, p50 and p95 latency, and team roles on one shared balance. It moves tokens and billing out of the profile page and treats the API as its own product.
