Vecto
Vecto converts raster images such as logos, icons, illustrations, scans, and photos into editable SVG files. It accepts PNG, JPG, BMP, and GIF, preserves transparency, and provides a live side-by-side preview with synced zoom. Its tracer builds a connected mosaic, fitting shared boundaries once to avoid gaps or overlaps; it can represent straight edges as true lines and circles as exact arcs. Sub-pixel placement positions boundaries between pixels rather than snapping them to the pixel grid. Users can export SVGs or copy them to the clipboard for design and cutting software. Photo tracing can create stylized posterized vector art with a chosen number of colors. The maker says processing happens locally, images are not uploaded, and the app works offline without an account. Vecto is MIT-licensed and available free to download or build. The graphical application is Windows-only; Linux and macOS downloads are command-line tools for tracing, batch jobs, and benchmarking. A Microsoft Store version costs $7.99, paid once.
