Picsart is the exclusive first partner for Exploration Mode, which generates multiple visual directions from a single prompt so creators can compare and refine without rewriting. Available in raster up to 4 megapixels and as production-ready editable SVG vectors.

The model renders readable text for infographics, menus, signage, and packaging with high-fidelity typography. It’s the only AI model that generates real editable SVG files with clean geometry and structured layers ready for web or print. Output formats include PNG, JPG, SVG, PDF, TIFF, and Lottie.

Why creators choose Recraft V4

Where other models optimize for prompt accuracy or artistic flair, Recraft V4 optimizes for design taste producing images with the kind of visual polish that normally requires a human art director. It’s the only model generating production-quality editable SVGs with structured layers, the only one with Exploration Mode for comparing visual directions, and one of the few that renders legible text in images. With Picsart as the exclusive first partner for Exploration Mode, creators get early access to a workflow that eliminates the prompt-rewrite cycle and puts design intent first.
