What Recraft actually costs over a year
A monthly price is not the same thing as a monthly contract. These are the plans above resolved both ways, per seat or unit where the plan is charged that way. Where a vendor quotes only a yearly figure it is divided by twelve rather than left out, and the Quoted column says which figure the vendor actually publishes.
| Plan | Quoted | Monthly | Over 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | per month | $10 | $120 |
| Pro | per month | $16 | $192 |
| Teamsper seat | per month | $18 | $216 |
Cancelling Recraft, and getting money back
Read from the published Recraft terms on 18 September 2026. These are the terms, not legal advice: consumer law where you live may give you rights the terms do not mention.
| Refund window | 30 days |
|---|---|
| When you cancel | Cancel from Manage subscription in the profile at any time; the plan stays active to the end of the current billing cycle. |
| Changing mid-term | The refund has two conditions rather than one: fewer than 30 credits used over the lifetime of the account, and the most recent payment made within the past 30 days. Switching from yearly to monthly means cancelling the yearly subscription and starting a new one. |

Recraft pricing against its competitors
Compared on the smallest invoice each vendor will accept, not on the advertised per-seat rate. Where a product has a seat minimum, the figure below is the minimum times the rate, because that is the cheque you would actually write.
| Product | Cheapest paid entry | Free plan | Against Recraft |
|---|---|---|---|
| Recraft | $10 a month | Yes | This product |
| Canva | $15 a month | Yes | +$5 a month (+50%) |
| Adobe Creative Cloud | $19.99 a month | No | +$9.99 a month (+100%) |
Which Recraft plan should you buy?
| Your situation | Recommended | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You want to try it before spending anything | Free | Three generations per style per day, and the output is public, owned by Recraft and not usable commercially. Treat it as a demo. |
| You need generated assets for real work | Basic | $10 a month billed annually for 1,000 credits, commercial rights, private generations and the external models. |
| You need video generation or higher volume | Pro | $16 a month billed annually for 2,000 credits, video models and priority generation. |
| Several people need a shared workspace and styles | Teams | $18 per seat a month billed annually, with shared custom styles, central billing and SSO. |
| You object to generative AI in your workflow | Do not buy this | Generation is the entire product. Procreate publishes the opposite position. |
Read the free plan before you use it
Recraft’s own FAQ is explicit, and it is the most important thing on its pricing page: images generated on the free plan are owned by Recraft, are publicly visible in the community gallery, and are not licensed for commercial use. Recraft’s example is that they cannot be listed on stock platforms, which require proof of ownership.
Paid plans reverse all three: full ownership, commercial rights, private generations - and those rights survive cancellation, which the FAQ also states directly.
So the free tier is a demonstration rather than a starting point, and the honest entry price for real work is $10 a month billed annually.
What the plans meter
| Plan, billed annually | Monthly rate | Credits a month | Notable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | Limited | Public images, no commercial use |
| Basic | $10 | 1,000 | Commercial rights, external models |
| Pro | $16 | 2,000 | Video generation, priority queue |
| Teams | $18 per seat | 2,000 per seat | Shared workspace and styles, SSO |
Credits reset each cycle and do not roll over. Purchased top-ups never expire but are only available on Basic and Pro. Prices exclude VAT, and the page’s toggle defaults to annual billing, so the monthly-billing rate is not the figure shown.
Why a designer would choose this over a general image model
Three things, all of which are the difference between an asset you can use and a picture you have to redraw:
- Vector output. Generated art comes out as vectors you can still edit, rather than a flat raster.
- Brand style. Custom styles can be created and reused, so a set of illustrations matches.
- Placement control. Text and elements can be positioned deliberately, including text of any length.
That is what separates it from a better-known image model at a similar price: the output arrives in a form a designer can finish. The rest of AI image and video is priced here too.
What it does not do
No layout, no print production, no design system, and no desktop app - it is web only. Treat it as an asset source that feeds Affinity or Canva, not as a replacement for either.
And if the objection is to generative AI itself, this is the wrong product by definition; Procreate publishes the opposite position and is on the record about it.
