Question 1

How does this image to SVG converter work?

Accepted Answer

It posterizes the image down to a small palette of colors, then traces each color region into a polygon. The polygons are output as SVG <polygon> elements with the original viewBox, producing a fully scalable vector.

Question 2

What image formats are supported?

Accepted Answer

PNG, JPG, JPEG, WebP, BMP and GIF. The browser decodes the image to a canvas, so any image your browser can display works.

Question 3

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. All processing happens in your browser using a canvas. The original image never leaves your device.

Question 4

What are the best settings for icons or logos?

Accepted Answer

For sharp logos and icons, try 4–6 colors, simplification 2–3, and a smaller size (max 200–300px) for the cleanest result. For photos, use 8–12 colors and simplification 1.
