Recraft V4.1 gets its own, cheaper API pricing tier
Recraft gave its newest V4.1 models a separate, lower API tier: V4.1 raster dropped to /bin/bash.035 (from /bin/bash.04) and V4.1 Pro raster to /bin/bash.21 (from /bin/bash.25).
V4.1 API priced identically to V4: /bin/bash.04 raster, /bin/bash.25 Pro raster, /bin/bash.08 vector.
V4.1 raster /bin/bash.035, V4.1 Pro raster /bin/bash.21; new V4.1 Utility / Utility Pro variants at the same rates.
Between the 2026-05-31 and 2026-06-30 API-pricing captures, Recraft broke its newest V4.1 model family out of the shared V4 pricing group and gave it a distinct, lower per-image API rate. Standard V4.1 raster generation is now /bin/bash.035 per image (35 API units) versus /bin/bash.04 for V4/V3, and V4.1 Pro raster is /bin/bash.21 (210 units) versus /bin/bash.25 for V4 Pro. New “V4.1 Utility” and “V4.1 Utility Pro” raster/vector variants were also added at the same rates as their V4.1 counterparts. Vector rates were unchanged (/bin/bash.08 standard, /bin/bash.30 Pro). Recraft Studio subscription prices (Free, Basic 2, Pro 0, Teams 2/seat) were not affected.
Recraft broke its newest V4.1 model family out of the shared V4 API pricing group into a distinct, lower tier: V4.1 raster dropped to $0.035 per image (from $0.04) and V4.1 Pro raster to $0.21 (from $0.25), with new V4.1 Utility / Utility Pro variants added at the same rates. Vector rates ($0.08 standard, $0.30 Pro) and every Studio subscription price (Free / Basic $12 / Pro $20 / Teams $22/seat) were unchanged - so the newest flagship raster is now priced below the previous generation.
