Convert images to clean SVG vectors
Upload a logo, icon or flat illustration and get layered SVG paths you can scale to any size, recolour, cut on a plotter or edit in Figma and Illustrator. You control how many colours and how much detail to keep.
How it works
Three steps, no software to install.
- 1
Upload your image
PNG, JPG or WebP up to 4 MB. Flat art with clear edges vectorizes best.
- 2
Set colours and detail
Fewer colours give simpler, cleaner paths. Higher detail keeps small features.
- 3
Download the SVG
Paths are grouped by colour so you can recolour a whole layer in one click.

Tips for better results
- Start with 4–8 colours for logos; push higher only if gradients matter.
- Upscale tiny images before uploading. Tracing works on the pixels it is given.
- Use “remove background” when the artwork sits on a solid colour.
- Photos convert into posterised art, not photorealistic vectors. That is a limit of vectors themselves.

questions.
Will a photo convert well?
Photos become a stylised, posterised illustration. Vectors describe flat regions of colour, so they suit logos, icons and flat art far better than photographs.
Is the SVG editable?
Yes. It contains real path data grouped by colour, and opens in Figma, Illustrator, Inkscape and any browser.
What happens to transparent areas?
Fully transparent pixels are left empty in the SVG, so your artwork keeps its transparent background.
