Vectorizer.AI
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.
