About

Recraft V4.1 Utility Pro is a variant of Recraft V4.1, released May 14, 2026.

Recraft lists a median generation time of about 14 seconds. Pro variants generate at higher resolution with finer detail; Utility variants favor flat lighting, front-facing composition and simple scenes, for mockups and product listing photos. It is available through the Recraft API, fal, OpenRouter, Vercel AI Gateway and Replicate (API model recraftv4_1_utility_pro).
