by Recraft February 17, 2026

Recraft V4 is a professional-grade text-to-image model built for design and marketing workflows. It focuses on refined visual aesthetics, strong photorealism, and reliable brand control. The model delivers realistic skin rendering, natural textures, distinctive lighting, and well-structured compositions while avoiding common synthetic artifacts. It supports 2K image generation, reference images for style guidance, color palette control, and explicit background color selection to help teams produce brand-consistent creative assets.

API Options

Platform-level options for task execution and delivery.

taskType string required value: imageInference: Identifier for the type of task being performed

taskUUID string required UUID v4: UUID v4 identifier for tracking tasks and matching async responses. Must be unique per task.

outputType string default: URL: Image output type.

Allowed values 3 values

outputFormat string default: JPG

Specifies the file format of the generated output. The available values depend on the task type and the specific model's capabilities.

`JPG`: Best for photorealistic images with smaller file sizes (no transparency).
`PNG`: Lossless compression, supports high quality and transparency (alpha channel).
`WEBP`: Modern format providing superior compression and transparency support.

**Transparency**: If you are using features like background removal or LayerDiffuse that require transparency, you must select a format that supports an alpha channel (e.g., `PNG`, `WEBP`, `TIFF`). `JPG` does not support transparency.

Allowed values 3 values

outputQuality integer min: 20 max: 99 default: 95: Compression quality of the output. Higher values preserve quality but increase file size.

webhookURL string URI

Specifies a webhook URL where JSON responses will be sent via HTTP POST when generation tasks complete. For batch requests with multiple results, each completed item triggers a separate webhook call as it becomes available.

// Google Cloud Storage presigned URL
https://storage.googleapis.com/your-bucket/content.jpg?X-Goog-Signature=xyz789
