Generate images from inside your coding agent, not a separate app

Recraft shipped an MCP server that exposes its image and vector generation as tools any MCP client can call, including Claude and Cursor, making asset creation a scripted step in agent workflows. The company also released V4 as two models—a faster cheaper tier and a print resolution tier—tuned on composition and color decisions, and V4.1 tunes for shorter effective prompts, less busy backgrounds, and more natural photorealism, adding a Utility variant for predictable output.

Asset creation becomes a scripted step in an agent workflow instead of hand work in a second product.

Asset creation becomes a scripted step in an agent workflow instead of hand work in a second product. Read: Recraft released V4 as two models, a faster cheaper tier and a print resolution tier, tuned on composition and color decisions rather than general preference. The per job decision becomes latency and output size rather than quality. Read: V4.1 tunes for shorter effective prompts, less busy backgrounds and more natural photorealism, and adds a Utility variant for cases where predictable output beats creative variation. A pipeline calling the API needs less prompt engineering and less retry logic.
