Pick Recraft if

  • Fits if you need icons and logos as SVGs you can edit
  • Works for Figma and Framer users who want it inside the design tool

Look elsewhere if

  • Not for you if video's the point, since Basic covers images only and video starts at Pro for $16
  • Tight if your team wants to pool credits, as Teams credits are per seat, with a 2-seat minimum
  • Watch out: monthly credits don't roll over, and top-ups at $2 per 200 are sold only on paid plans

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
