Works with: Illustrator · Figma · Canva · Inkscape
Drop several files at once to convert the whole folder in one pass. Got a different format? A PNG, JPG, HEIC, PDF, SVG or DXF still comes out as Vector.
× removes a colour and its shapes; click a swatch to change it. Every format follows.

Batch
Every file is traced on its own at its own resolution, with the settings in the panel. A file converted here comes out identical to the same file converted by itself.

Conversion settings
Trace settings
Full-colour trace for print and web.
Fine-tune
Raise it to clear dust, grain and stray dots; 0 keeps every mark.
Untick for pixel art: the outline then follows every pixel edge.
With Remove background: how close a colour must be to the background to go with it.
Machine output
Height follows the source aspect ratio.
Laser and Router follow the traced outlines. Engrave photo burns the picture itself, line by line, for photos and portraits.
Heat transfer vinyl is pressed face down, so it has to be cut mirrored. The second box is the overcut in millimetres: a drag knife starts each shape pointing the wrong way, and running past the start covers that stretch properly so the piece weeds out clean.
Beam or bit width. Left at zero the tool runs down the centre of the line, so a part finishes one tool width undersize. Set it and the path is offset by half, with holes offset the opposite way.
Holes before the part that holds them, so nothing comes loose while there is still cutting to do. Also shortens the travel between cuts.

Image vectorizer: vectorize photographs in your browser
This is a free online vectorizer. Vectorize image files - photographs - into clean SVG, EPS, PDF or DXF paths that scale to any size without going soft.
As an image vectorizer it traces the edges of your picture and redraws them as real curves and corners: flat colour layers for a logo, a single outline for a cutter, or a centerline for an engraver. There is no bitmap hidden inside the file.
People looking for a vectorizer ai tool want the tracing done for them: here the colours, the background, a checkerboard baked into a download and the specks too small to matter are found and handled automatically, and every setting stays in your hands if you want to change it.
A vector image is made of shapes rather than pixels, so it prints sharp on a business card and on the side of a van, cuts cleanly on a Cricut or a laser, and opens in Illustrator, Inkscape, Figma and CAD.
Why it matters
Preset for the job
The colour count, detail and smoothing arrive tuned for this kind of artwork rather than left at a generic default.
Every format from one trace
The same geometry produces the vector, the machine file and the print file. No re-uploading between tools.
See it before you download it
Each format renders in the preview panel, including the machine formats parsed back from the file itself.
Free, local, no signup
The conversion runs in your browser, so there is no upload and no queue.
Questions
Do I need an account?
No. In-browser conversion is free and unlimited with no signup. Free picture downloads carry a watermark; the paid plan removes it and unlocks the machine formats, which are never watermarked.
What if the result is not good enough?
Some artwork genuinely needs a person rather than an engine. Adjust detail and colour count first; if it still will not come out, the source is usually the limit.
Can I use the output commercially?
Yes. It is your artwork, and we make no claim on what you convert.
