Recraft V4.1 Flash is Recraft's fastest and lowest-cost image model, generating a 1K raster image in about 1.3 seconds with quality close to Recraft V4.1. Built for high-volume generation and rapid iteration, with strong results for photography, portraits, atmospheric scenes, mixed media, and logo concepts. It outputs raster images only and does not support styles.
GPT-5.5 pro uses OpenAI's Responses API with built-in tools, improved reasoning, and stateful context management.
