How to Use Recraft AI Image Generator

Recraft is an AI image generation tool aimed at designers, founded in 2022, and has been used to generate over 400 million images. Users can export their designs in popular formats such as PNG, JPG, and PDF, with comprehensive instructions available for all skill levels. Although marketed towards designers, Recraft allows anyone to create or edit AI photos.

The free account offers 50 daily credits, with each image creation consuming credits. Users can choose from Recraft's V3 and V2 models or external ones, although external models require a paid plan. Using Recraft's own models provides a curated list of styles for inspiration when generating images.

Recraft offers photorealistic styles that add motion blur or a retro feel to photos, and illustrated styles including hand-drawn and pixel art options. Users can generate images using simple prompts. Recraft's AI image editing tools allow for adding text or logos to images.

Recraft's mockup feature is suitable for creating social media content, allowing users to place logos or designs on product photos. The free account allows limited experimentation with credits, but for consistent high-quality results, unlocking more powerful models is necessary. Recraft provides a dedicated environment for creating and editing AI images.
