Recraft V4 Pro Vector
Recraft V4 Pro Vector is the SVG/vector variant of Recraft’s V4 Pro image model, optimized for generating production-ready, scalable graphic design assets.
What is Recraft V4 Pro Vector?
Recraft V4 Pro Vector is a vector image generation model from Recraft that produces scalable SVG-style graphics from text or image prompts. It is mainly used for creating logos, icons, branding systems, and other vector-style graphics that must stay sharp at any size. It is also used for marketing layouts, UI assets, and other design deliverables where editability and clean geometry are more important than photorealistic raster output. The model belongs to the Recraft V4 family and is the vector (SVG) counterpart of the higher‑resolution Recraft V4 Pro raster model.
Providers
Different companies host the same model. OpenRouter routes your request to one of them based on the routing mode you pick — Balanced (price + speed), Nitro (fastest), or Exacto (highest tool-calling accuracy).

5 Core Capabilities
-
Vector Image Generation
Generates production-grade SVG vector illustrations from text prompts, with smooth paths, accurate geometry, and scalable print-ready outputs.
-
Text-Guided Design
Interprets detailed natural language prompts to create intentional, art-directed compositions aligned with branding or stylistic requirements.
-
Image-to-Vector Conversion
Transforms existing raster images into clean, structured vector graphics, preserving shapes, regions, and design intent for editing.
-
Brand Asset Production
Produces consistent icons, logos, and marketing graphics suitable for professional workflows like packaging, advertising, and UI design.
-
Color Palette Control
Supports constrained color palettes and background colors, enabling designers to match brand guidelines across generated vector assets.

Why Build on LLM.API?
One unified API. Every major model. Built-in reliability, cost control, and observability.
-
Unified AI Routing
Automatically route each request to the best model across providers based on latency, cost, and quality—no client changes, just smarter traffic.
One endpoint, many models -
Cost-Aware Orchestration
Control spend with per-route budgets, price-aware routing, and transparent usage metrics so you can scale AI adoption without surprise invoices.
Optimize every token -
Resilient Fallback Flows
Design provider and model fallback chains that auto-retry on errors, timeouts, or quotas, keeping your AI features online even when vendors fail.
No-single-point-of-AI-failure -
End-to-End Observability
Trace every request across providers with logs, metrics, and structured events so you can debug latency spikes, tune prompts, and enforce SLAs with confidence.
See every token hop -
Task-Level Abstractions
Call high-level tasks like chat, tools, RAG, and scoring instead of raw APIs, letting LLM.API handle schema, prompts, and provider quirks for you.
Code to tasks, not models -
High-Throughput Batch Jobs
Run large-scale evaluations, backfills, and content processing with parallelized batch pipelines, robust retries, and cost controls baked into the platform.
Ship evals and backfills fast
When to Use — When NOT to Use
Use it if...
- You need clean, scalable vector illustrations like icons, logos, or UI elements.
- You need to generate resolution-independent graphics for print materials and branding assets.
- You need consistent, flat-style artwork that can be easily edited in vector tools.
- Your use case involves exporting vector graphics for web, mobile, and product interfaces.
- Your use case involves batch-generating themed illustration sets with consistent visual style.
- You need line-art or simplified diagrams that remain sharp at any display size.
- Your use case involves creating SVG assets that must stay lightweight and scalable.
Avoid if...
- You need photorealistic raster images with complex lighting, textures, and high-frequency detail.
- Your workload requires 3D renders, volumetric effects, or physically based visual simulations.
- You need long-form text understanding, reasoning, or code generation rather than image creation.
- Your workload requires editing existing photos at pixel-level fidelity instead of vector graphics.
- You need frame-by-frame video generation or animation rather than static vector images.
- You need extremely high-resolution print photography where vector-style rendering is inappropriate.
- Your workload requires multimodal reasoning over text, audio, and video inputs in one pipeline.
