Trace raster artwork into editable paths
Color quantization, contour tracing and curve fitting produce SVG paths without embedding the source bitmap. Tracing approximates the artwork; it cannot recover missing detail or turn lettering into editable text.
How to use
Choose, drop or paste PNG / JPG / WebP and review source dimensions and errors.
Choose color or monochrome, resolution, smoothing and contour filtering. Optionally remove white or set display dimensions.
Run the batch and compare originals with vectors. Download SVG files individually or as ZIP; regenerate after changing settings.
Limits and privacy
All processing is local without uploads or persistent storage. Tracing is capped at 1024px per side without source upscaling, and 60 seconds per image. Output limits: 8 MB each, 64 MB total, 20,000 paths and 200,000 contour segments per image. Cancellation keeps completed files.
Output is static vector geometry without source animation or metadata.
Use cases
Create scalable website logos, app icons and simple illustrations; prepare paths for design software; turn scanned line art into monochrome contours.
FAQ
Why do converted photos look different?
Vectorization merges pixels into limited color regions and curves. Gradients and texture simplify. More colors or resolution can help, but raster images usually suit photographs better.
Is the output real vector geometry?
Output contains standard SVG paths with no embedded PNG / JPG. SVG-compatible editors can edit the geometry; lettering becomes outlines.
Why are previous results cleared after settings change?
Changing conversion settings clears old SVG files so downloads match the current settings. Sources remain available for conversion. Canceling keeps completed results downloadable.
