Vectorizer.AI
vectorizer.ai
What it is
Vectorizer.AI turns raster images into editable vector graphics for uses including logos, illustrations, print, web, CAD, and CNC. It accepts PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP, and WebP files, and can export SVG, EPS, DXF, PDF, or a cleaned-up PNG. Its conversion process pairs in-house deep-learning models trained on a proprietary dataset with geometric methods for shape fitting, corner cleanup, and symmetry modeling. Users can upload, convert, and preview images without commitment; production results from example images are available to download free. Web App uploads are capped at 3 megapixels and 30 megabytes, with cropping to fit the resolution limit. Developers can connect through SDKs, a CLI, HTTP endpoints, or OpenAPI. API access starts at $9.99 a month for 50 credits, with one credit covering one image; the Web App is $9.99 a month and has no API access. Unused API credits roll over up to five times the monthly allowance. The product is available on web, Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Vectorizer.AI in depth
Read the full write-up
Vectorizer.AI turns raster artwork into editable vector graphics for design, print and technical workflows. It suits designers who need full-color tracing and developers automating image conversion. The split between web-image and API-credit subscriptions is useful, but routine production use is paid.
Overview
The service accepts PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP and WebP, and exports SVG, EPS, DXF, PDF or a cleaned-up PNG. Its conversion pairs deep-learning models with geometric processing such as shape fitting, corner cleanup and symmetry modeling, making it relevant to illustrations and logos as well as CAD and CNC workflows.
You can upload and preview a conversion before committing, and download production results from example images for free. The Web App limits uploads to 3 megapixels and 30 megabytes; cropping can fit an image within the resolution limit. That is a useful way to assess results, but large source images may need adjustment before conversion.
Key features
Conversion and automation
Full-color tracing and four vector output formats cover a wider range of downstream uses than a tool focused only on basic outlines. Developers can integrate through official SDKs, a command-line tool, direct HTTP endpoints or OpenAPI. SDK languages include TypeScript and JavaScript, Java, C# and.NET, Go, PHP and Ruby. The standalone CLI runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, supporting scripts, batch conversions, CI jobs and terminal workflows.
Each API credit covers one image. Unused credits roll over up to five times the monthly allowance; once credits are exhausted, API requests return HTTP 402 errors. That rollover cushions uneven workloads, but it does not remove the need to size a plan around monthly volume.
Privacy and support
The FAQ says uploads and results are kept for 24 hours and deleted shortly thereafter, while the privacy policy says image records tied to accounts are retained indefinitely. The FAQ also says the company claims no rights to vectorized results and does not share images with third parties unless you authorize it. The privacy policy describes HTTPS and organizational access controls, while acknowledging that absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
Support is provided through a web form. Staff speak English and use machine translation for other languages, a practical constraint for customers who need support in another language.
Pricing
The Web App costs $9.99 a month, billed monthly and cancellable anytime. It includes unlimited web images but no API access. It is the straightforward choice for browser-based use, though the upload limits still apply.
API plans are also billed monthly and cancellable anytime. The entry plan costs $9.99 a month for 50 credits, or $0.200 per credit. It suits occasional automated conversions; the Web App costs the same but gives web-image use rather than API access. Larger plans reduce the per-credit rate as volume rises:

Subscriptions are personal and non-refundable, renew automatically until canceled, and remaining API credits are lost upon cancellation. The free preview and example downloads help with evaluation, but do not replace a paid subscription for ongoing use.
Platforms
The Web App runs in a browser, and the standalone CLI supports Windows, macOS and Linux. API access provides another route for integration; this combination suits both individual browser work and automated pipelines.
Who it's for
Choose Vectorizer.AI if you need full-color raster-to-vector conversion across design and technical formats, or if you want to automate one-image-per-credit conversions through an API or CLI. It is less suitable if your workflow depends on uploads above the Web App's limits, or if you want an ongoing free conversion plan.
Pros and cons
Broad input and output support: common raster files can become SVG, EPS, DXF or PDF, with cleaned-up PNG also available.
Practical automation choices: SDKs, HTTP, OpenAPI and a cross-platform CLI support integration and batch workflows.
Useful evaluation path: preview conversions without commitment and download example-image results for free.
Web upload ceiling: 3-megapixel and 30-megabyte limits may obstruct work with larger originals.
Different retention statements: the FAQ describes short-lived uploads and results, while the privacy policy says account-linked image records remain indefinitely.
Subscription constraints: plans are personal and non-refundable, and unused API credits disappear on cancellation.
Alternatives
Vectorization.eu is worth considering if you want a free, no-registration online conversion option or a web/API freemium service.
WinTopo is a Windows-only freemium alternative for readers who want a desktop option.
Vector Magic has an Online Edition at $9.95 a month with unlimited use; choose it if browser-based unlimited use matters more than Vectorizer.AI's separate web and API plans.
VTracer is an open-source option under an MIT license for readers who prefer that model.
EdgeSVG is another free alternative.
SVGcode offers a free, no-login option for readers looking for a web-based alternative.
Vecto offers a free open-source build with no trial clock or watermark; its Microsoft Store option costs 7.99 USD once.
VectorIt is a free, open-source desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux.
Browse Image Vectorization Software or AI Vector Generators for more options.
Verdict
Vectorizer.AI is a strong fit for designers and developers who need full-color conversion with useful vector formats and a clear path from preview to automated production. Choose it for the combination of geometric processing and integration options; look elsewhere if the web upload ceiling, personal non-refundable subscriptions or API-credit commitment do not suit your workflow.
Verdict
Vectorizer.AI specifies both image formats and the limits on browser uploads, alongside its conversion approach. Check the separate Web App and API terms before choosing a plan; each is $9.99 a month at the listed entry level.
