Lunacy vs Recraft

Lunacy is a graphic design app and platform for power users and teams, with desktop and web use and online and offline modes. Its tools include auto layouts, real-time collaboration, components, variables, and prototyping. Built-in icons, illustrations, photos, and UI kits provide assets, while AI tools include an image upscaler, background remover, text generator, and avatar generator. Lunacy works natively with.sketch files and can import documents from Figma. Users can work with local documents without an internet connection or deploy its private cloud on-premises or on a VPS. Private-cloud controls include access management, single sign-on, detailed logs, data recovery, and administrator-approved updates. On-premises customers manage their own server and backups; VPS customers can manage backups or delegate them to Icons8 engineers. The free plan allows up to 10 cloud documents and 10 editors or exporters, with 30 days of version history. Paid plans include Personal cloud at $4.99 a month and Professional team at $4.99 a month. The features page says third-party integrations are not currently planned.

Recraft provides text-to-image generation, reference image support and image editing, with output in SVG, PNG, JPG, PDF, TIFF and Lottie formats. API access is available, and API is the listed platform. Its free plan includes 30 daily credits. Monthly AI credits are listed as 1,000 credits per month, alongside the plan-specific credit amounts. Commercial use is limited. Recraft was founded in 2022 and is headquartered in London, United Kingdom. The free plan offers a way to use the product without a listed subscription price, while the named tiers specify progressively larger credit totals. The combination of image generation, editing, references and multiple export formats may be relevant to people creating or modifying visual assets, including those who need vector and raster outputs.
