Most AI image tools generate one cool thing and twenty random things. Recraft's pitch — train a style, reuse it — is the first one that addresses the actual creator problem: a feed that looks like one feed.
We assessed Recraft alongside the rest of our design & visuals reviews, including Figma, Canva and Photoshop, so the score below is relative to that field.
Vector export is the sleeper feature. Real, editable vectors out of a generative model. That's a workflow.
| PLAN | PRICE | WHAT YOU GET |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 /mo | limited credits/mo |
| Basic | $10 /mo | more credits |
| Professional | $30 /mo | higher limits, brand controls |
On-brand AI illustrations — and anyone who wants Recraft to do the heavy lifting in this category.
Skip it if you need highly precise, art-directed illustration rather than AI-generated vector/raster assets. — if that's a dealbreaker, see every design & visuals tool we've tested.
