Introducing Recraft V3: The #1 Ranked AI Image Generator Now on WaveSpeedAI

We’re thrilled to announce that Recraft V3—the AI image model that has taken the top spot on industry benchmarks—is now available on WaveSpeedAI. Known by its codename “Red Panda,” this revolutionary model has redefined what’s possible in AI-powered image generation, particularly for professional designers and creative teams.

What is Recraft V3?

Recraft V3 represents a paradigm shift in text-to-image AI technology. Developed by Recraft, a company that has empowered over 4 million users across 200+ countries, this 20 billion parameter model doesn’t just generate images—it thinks in design language. Unlike conventional AI image generators that treat text prompts as simple instructions, Recraft V3 understands the nuances of professional graphic design, making it the first AI model truly built for creative professionals.

Since its release in October 2024, Recraft V3 has maintained the #1 position on the Artificial Analysis Text-to-Image Leaderboard hosted on Hugging Face, achieving an impressive ELO rating of 1172 and a 72% win rate—outperforming Midjourney v6.1 (1093 ELO, 64% win rate), FLUX 1.1 Pro (1143 ELO, 68% win rate), and OpenAI’s DALL-E 3 HD (984 ELO, 51% win rate).

Key Features That Set Recraft V3 Apart

Industry-Leading Text Generation

Recraft V3 is the only AI model capable of generating images with long-form text—full sentences and paragraphs rather than just a word or two. While competitors like Midjourney and DALL-E often struggle with text rendering, producing misspellings or garbled characters, Recraft V3 consistently delivers clean, readable typography that integrates seamlessly into your designs.

Unmatched Design Control

What truly distinguishes Recraft V3 is its precision. You can specify exact text positions and sizes within your image, eliminating the guesswork that plagues other AI tools. Whether you’re creating a poster with headline text at the top, a product mockup with specifications, or a social media graphic with multiple text elements, Recraft V3 gives you complete layout control.

Vector and Raster Output

Unlike MidJourney and DALL-E 3 which only produce raster images, Recraft V3 supports native vector (SVG) generation. This means you can create infinitely scalable graphics perfect for logos, icons, and web illustrations—assets you can import directly into Illustrator or Figma for final refinements.

Superior Image Quality

The model excels in:

  • Anatomical accuracy: Realistic body proportions and natural positioning
  • Prompt understanding: Precise interpretation of complex descriptions
  • High aesthetic quality: Professional-grade output with sharper details, better lighting, and more natural-looking results
  • Style consistency: Maintains visual coherence across multiple generations—crucial for brand work

Brand Style Customization

Upload reference images to generate brand-consistent content. The style control feature allows you to lock in a specific aesthetic and maintain it across all creations without retraining the model each time.

Real-World Use Cases

Recraft V3 is already being used by companies like Shopify and Salesforce, as well as freelance designers and marketing teams worldwide. Here’s how professionals are putting it to work:

Marketing and Advertising

Create ad banners, promotional materials, and campaign visuals that incorporate text seamlessly. Generate multiple variations quickly while maintaining brand consistency.
