How Recraft AI models have evolved

One model per node, oldest to newest, each with a sample of its work. These models do different jobs, like image, video, and upscaling, so the chip on each node names its mode. Compare versions within the same mode.

Text-to-Vector

Robo-Logo

Tests restraint and recognizability at icon scale: Can the model say a lot with few shapes and resist over-decorating? This is where compactness genuinely matters, since “minimalist / flat / clean lines” is the explicit brief.

Prompt
“Minimalist vector logo of a friendly robot holding a coffee cup, clean lines, flat design, white background”

  • Not over-decorated

Cat drinking milk

4/4 · 4 takes
Text-to-Vector

Cat drinking milk

Tests multi-subject scene composition and a spatial relationship that’s easy to get wrong (boy outside, cat inside, looking through glass). The whole point is warmth and charm, not precision, so it rewards clean appealing rendering over technical accuracy.

Prompt
“A cat drinking milk by a morning window while a boy watches from outside, simple vector illustration”

Pelican on a bike

4/4 · 4 takes

Pelican on a bike

It’s hard because it forces a model to combine the rigid mechanical geometry of a bicycle with the organic anatomy of a pelican and then compose them into a coherent scene where the bird is actually pedaling. Even leading models frequently get the frame structure wrong or misplace the pelican’s limbs, which makes it a surprisingly revealing test of spatial reasoning.

Prompt
“Pelican riding a bicycle”
Judged on
  • Recognizable pelican
  • Bike correctness
  • Riding pose
