The honest brief

FLUX

From the team that created Stable Diffusion — ships open weights alongside a hosted pro tier for its strongest models.

  • Open weights for many variants
  • Strong prompt adherence and detail
  • Wide ecosystem support
  • API + playground available
  • Top 'pro' models are hosted-only
  • Open weights need GPU to self-run
  • Less turnkey than Midjourney

Recraft

The only major generator that outputs natively editable SVG paths — assets drop straight into Illustrator or Figma.

  • Native editable SVG vector output
  • Brand style sets for consistency
  • Built-in vector node editor
  • API access for pipelines
  • Text rendering trails Ideogram
  • Designer-focused, steeper than casual tools
  • Free tier credits limited
