Overview
recraft-v3 — Text-to-Image AI Model
recraft-v3, code-named "red_panda," is a state-of-the-art text-to-image AI model from recraft that excels at generating clean vector-style graphics, logos, and brand illustrations with precise prompt adherence and style control. Developers and designers searching for a recraft text-to-image solution turn to recraft-v3 for its specialized focus on professional design assets rather than photorealistic photos, delivering raster outputs in PNG or JPEG that mimic vector aesthetics. As part of the recraft family, this model supports multiple styles like Vector art, Illustration, and Enterprise, making it ideal for creating consistent branding visuals quickly.
Technical Specifications
What Sets recraft-v3 Apart
recraft-v3 stands out in the text-to-image AI model landscape with its specialization in vector-style graphics and brand assets, producing clean, professional designs optimized for logos and icons—unlike generalist models focused on photorealism. This enables designers to generate logo concepts like "minimalist tech startup emblem with geometric shapes" in seconds, using them as references for final vector recreation in tools like Figma.
It uniquely supports advanced text_layout parameters for precise text placement in images, a Recraft V3-only feature that ensures legible, styled typography in graphics. Users benefit by crafting brand illustrations with embedded text, such as marketing visuals or app icons, without post-editing distortions common in other models.
recraft-v3 also offers image-to-image capabilities exclusive to this version, allowing uploads of reference images (up to 5MB, 16MP) with strength controls for variations while preserving composition. This empowers recraft-v3 API integrations for workflows like refining existing designs into flat icons or punk graphic styles.
- Max Resolution: 1024x1024 with aspect ratios like 1:1, 16:9, 4:3, 3:4
- Generation Time: ~5 seconds per image, costing 4 credits on platforms like PostEverywhere
- Styles: Recraft V3 Raw, Photorealism, Vector art, Hand-drawn, Punk Graphic
- Output: PNG/JPEG raster; commercial use allowed
Key Considerations
The prompt must align with the desired style and resolution for optimal results for Recraft v3. Avoid contradictions, such as requesting a realistic image with an overly abstract prompt.
The size significantly impacts processing time. Larger sizes may increase the time required but produce highly detailed results.
Style combinations are predefined. Use them to match the desired visual theme, but be mindful of potential mismatches with the prompt.

What Can I Use It For?
Use Cases for recraft-v3
Graphic designers building brand kits use recraft-v3 to generate consistent icon sets from prompts like "set of flat icons for a fitness app, vibrant colors, simple shapes, vector style," leveraging its design-focused optimization for clean, scalable concepts ready for vector software export.
Marketing teams seeking recraft text-to-image for e-commerce visuals upload product photos via image-to-image and prompt "place this sneaker on a urban street with neon lights, flat design," creating photorealistic composites with precise style control in under 5 seconds.
Developers integrating a recraft-v3 API for automated asset generation input text_layout for logos, such as "minimalist logo for coffee shop, warm tones, modern typography," producing enterprise-grade illustrations that maintain text accuracy across styles like Line art or Punk Graphic.
UI/UX creators experiment with custom styles on recraft-v3 to vary app illustrations, using strength parameters on reference images for "abstract pattern for packaging, pastel organic shapes, seamless repeat," ensuring diversity and prompt fidelity for rapid prototyping.
Things to Be Aware Of
Combine realistic styles with high resolutions to create lifelike portraits or landscapes.
Explore artistic styles like handmade_3d or engraving_color for a distinctive aesthetic.
Use motion_blur for dynamic, high-energy scenes that simulate movement.
Experiment with different size configurations to find the ideal balance between detail and file size.
Limitations
Style Overlap: Combining multiple stylistic categories may produce inconsistent results.
Complex Prompts: Overly detailed descriptions might not always translate accurately into the generated image.
Resolution Limitations: Very large sizes may strain resources or impact generation speed.
