Recraft: Recraft V4.1 Vector

recraft/recraft-v4.1-vector

Recraft V4.1 Vector is the vector (SVG) variant of Recraft V4.1, tuned for high aesthetics. It supports text and image inputs and produces SVG image output across multiple aspect ratios, with typical generation around 10 seconds. Output scales cleanly, making it suitable for icons, logos, and other graphics. V4.1 brings more personality to text and illustrations, smoother gradients, and stronger short-prompt adherence compared to V4.

Suited for everyday illustration work where output should be designed rather than photographed. Supports the following image_config parameters: strength (controls how much the output deviates from the source image), rgb_colors (sets a color palette), and background_rgb_color (sets the background color). See the image generation docs for details: https://openrouter.ai/docs/features/multimodal/image-generation

Note: only one input image is supported.

Benchmarks

Scores on standardized evaluations and this model’s own outputs on shared benchmark prompts. Higher percentages are better — and each rank shows where this model lands among the models evaluated on that source.

Benchmark outputs summary for Recraft: Recraft V4.1 Vector

  • Portraits: Studio headshot of a woman in a charcoal blazer against a mid-grey seamless backdrop, lit by a large softbox slightly above and to the left with a soft fill from the right, catchlights in both eyes. An 85mm look with shallow depth of field, skin texture and flyaway hairs kept rather than smoothed.
  • People in scenes: Photograph of four cooks working the pass in a restaurant kitchen at service, plating three dishes at once, several hands in frame and some of them overlapping. One cook partly hidden behind another, steam rising into hard overhead light, each face clearly a different person.
  • Animals: Photograph of a tabby cat asleep on a sunlit windowsill, fur lit from behind so the individual hairs glow at the edges, one ear turned toward the camera. Shallow depth of field, a houseplant soft in the background, quiet morning light.
  • Landscape and nature: Photograph of an old-growth temperate rainforest after rain, moss on every trunk and fallen log, ferns dense across the floor, thin fog between the far trees. Overcast light with no direct sun, everything from the nearest fern to the last trunk in focus.

Uptime

Uptime is the percentage of the past 3 days that at least one provider was responding to requests. Availability is the percentage of time that inference was successfully served. OpenRouter continuously monitors and uses the next-best provider when one returns an error.

When an error occurs in an upstream provider, we can recover by routing to another healthy provider, if your request filters allow it. You can access per-provider uptime data programmatically through the Endpoints API. Learn more about our load balancing and provider routing options.
