Workflow & Usage

  1. Add images.
    Drag & drop your PNG, JPG, or WebP files — or click to select multiple.

  2. Choose your tracing settings.

    • Number of colors: Controls how many color regions the SVG can use.
    • Detail level: Lower values produce simpler shapes; higher values capture more edges and curves.
    • Clean up small noise: Removes tiny artifacts that would otherwise turn into unwanted paths.

  3. Convert.
    Process images one-by-one or press Download all as ZIP to batch-convert everything.

  4. Download.
    Each result is a clean, scalable SVG file named after your original image.

Every conversion runs locally, keeping your images private and your browser fast.

Use Cases

  • Logo Vectorization
    Turn low-resolution or raster logos into crisp, scalable SVGs for websites and print.

  • Illustration Cleanup
    Convert hand-drawn sketches, icons, or simple graphics into editable vector paths.

  • Poster & Art Effects
    Turn photos into bold posterized SVG artwork with limited colors.

  • UI & Marketing Assets
    Create lightweight SVG illustrations that stay sharp on any screen size.

  • Batch Vectorization
    Process sets of icons or graphics in one go with consistent settings.

Tips for Best Results

  • Start with 6–12 colors.
    Most graphics look clean and balanced in this range.

  • Use lower detail for logos.
    You’ll get simpler paths and cleaner shapes.

  • Increase detail for illustrations or photos.
    More curves and edges will be preserved.

  • Turn on noise cleanup for camera photos and JPGs.
    It removes tiny artifacts that can bloat SVG size.

  • Avoid extremely large images.
    Vectorizing full-resolution photos can be heavy; resize first if needed.

How It Works

This tool runs a full vectorization pipeline inside your browser — no uploads, no servers:

  • The image is decoded using createImageBitmap for fast loading.
  • It’s drawn to OffscreenCanvas and converted to raw ImageData.
  • A Web Worker runs ImageTracer, which:
    • groups similar colors
    • detects edges and shapes
    • approximates them with SVG paths
    • builds the final SVG markup
  • A lightweight worker pool processes multiple files without freezing the UI.
  • Results are packaged with JSZip when downloading multiple SVGs.

You get clean vector graphics, instant previews, and full privacy — all powered by modern browser APIs.

Frequently Asked Questions

It creates clean, editable SVG paths traced from the image’s shapes and colors. The output is a standard SVG file you can open in design tools like Figma, Illustrator, or Inkscape.

SVGs aren’t pixel-based. They’re made from paths. If you use fewer colors or lower detail, the shapes become simpler. Increasing detail or color count makes the result more faithful but produces larger files.

Yes, but photos contain thousands of subtle tones. Use higher detail and more colors for realistic results, or fewer colors to create poster-style art.

It removes tiny pixel-level artifacts before tracing. This prevents small specks from becoming isolated SVG paths and keeps the result cleaner and smaller.

No. Everything runs directly in your browser using Web Workers and OffscreenCanvas. No files ever leave your device.

Large images work, but very high resolutions may use more memory during tracing. If your browser struggles, try resizing the image first using another Vayce tool.
