Turn a Simple Illustration into a Vector That Never Gets Blurry
Works best on simple illustrations with few colors and no background (logos, emoticons, characters). Photos or images with gradients may look posterized.
Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of image works best?
Simple illustrations, logos, emoticons, or character art with no background and few flat colors work best. Cel-shaded style artwork (e.g. from Procreate) is especially well suited.
Can I use a photo?
Technically yes, but the result will look posterized compared to the original. No matter how high you set the color count, a photo's subtle color variation can't be perfectly represented as vector shapes, so photos aren't recommended.
Does it work with pencil or brush-drawn art?
The jagged, hand-drawn shape of a brush stroke's outline traces just fine. However, fine paper grain or brush texture β made of hundreds of subtle shade variations within a single stroke β gets smoothed away during tracing.
How should I adjust the color count and detail?
Set the color count close to (or slightly above) the number of colors actually used in your artwork. Lowering detail merges small areas and shrinks the file; raising it stays closer to the original but adds more paths, making the file larger.
Is my image sent to a server?
No, the uploaded image is processed entirely in your browser and never sent to a server.
