/ See it in action

One image. Five ways to trace.

Drag to compare original vs vector — and watch it cycle through every mode. Same squid, five engines.

Original Vector · Line Art

Best for sketches, pen drawings and scanned artwork — crisp black-and-white outlines.

/ How it works

Pixels in. Vectors out.

Four steps, one tab. No uploads, no servers — completely private.

01

Upload anything

PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, BMP, AVIF, TIFF, HEIC/HEIF, SVG or PDF. Drop, paste a URL, or convert a PDF page.

02

Edit the image

Crop, rotate, replace background, or make it a sticker with a smooth border. Brush refine with erase/recover for precision.

03

Convert to vector

Pick a vectorize mode (Line Art, Logo, Illustration, Photo, Hybrid) or let auto-analyse suggest one. Adjust colour count, hit vectorize, and tweak as many times as you like.

04

Refine & export

Click paths to recolour, hide or delete. Then download SVG, PNG (up to 300 DPI), EPS, DXF or vector PDF.

/ Features

A full vector studio. No install.

Upload, edit, vectorize, refine, export — all in one tab. Your images never leave your browser. 100% private.

01

5 vectorize modes

Line Art, Logo, Illustration, Photo, Hybrid — auto-picked per image.

02

Edit before trace

Crop, rotate, remove background, brush refine, 15+ filters — Pop Art, Anime, Duotone, Posterize and more.

03

Refine the result

Click any path to recolour, hide, delete or reduce layers.

04

Custom presets

Save your settings as named presets. Reuse on any image.

05

Bulk convert

Drop a folder. Get a ZIP of clean SVGs — one preset, batched.

06

7 export formats

SVG · PNG 72/150/300 DPI · EPS · DXF · vector PDF.

07

100% in-browser

WASM workers do the work. Your images never leave the tab.

08

Colour palette editor

Swap, tweak and save colour schemes. Recolour any trace in a click.

09

Cut-ready layers

Cutout mode builds non-overlapping colour layers with a screen-print undercut — clean Cricut & Silhouette vinyl, plus per-colour DXF in mm.

10

Compare & inspect

Drag the slider to compare your original against the live vector before you commit to an export.

11

Works offline

Install it as an app. Once it has loaded, Vector Squid keeps working with no connection at all.

12

Background removal

Auto-cut the background, then erase or recover by brush. Interior cutouts — like letter holes — stay crisp.

/ FAQ

Questions, answered.

01 Are my images actually private?

Yes — completely. Vector Squid runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded; your files never touch a server, so your work stays 100% private.

02 What file types can I upload?

PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, BMP, AVIF, TIFF, HEIC/HEIF, SVG and PDF. PDFs are rasterized from the first page; oversized files (>10 MB) are auto-downscaled.

03 Which vectorize mode should I pick?

Auto-analyze suggests one. Line Art for sketches, Logo for flat marks, Illustration for posterized art, Photo for full-colour scenes, Hybrid for colour clipped by clean outlines.

04 What can I export?

Free: SVG and PNG at 72 / 150 / 300 DPI. Pro adds vector PDF (screen printing), EPS (desktop publishing), and DXF (laser, CNC, Silhouette Studio).

05 Does it work with Cricut, Glowforge and Silhouette?

Yes. SVG works everywhere; DXF (Pro) drops into Silhouette Studio and most CNC/laser software. Each fill colour becomes its own DXF layer in mm units.

06 What does Pro cost?

$9/month or $90/year (saves two months). Buy a single month any time you want to try Pro — cancel whenever. Free keeps working forever.
