Recraft V4.1

Recraft's model for design-minded images from short prompts

Try Recraft V4.1

Recraft V4.1 is Recraft's image model, released in May 2026. Recraft describes it as more natural in photorealism, smoother in gradients and wider in illustration styles than V4, and good at turning a short prompt into a finished-looking image.

On AirGallery it makes images from text only, since reference images aren't supported for this model. It's fast (about 5 seconds in our tests) and costs 2 credits.

Sample images

Recraft V4.1: A photo of a white ceramic coffee mug on a wooden cafe table next to a rain-streaked window, soft morning light. The mug is printed with the words "Good Morning" in black hand-lettered script.
