AI Traces

Live

Turn a photo, sketch, or logo into a clean, editable vector (SVG) — traced paths you can bring into CAD, a cutter, or a drawing set and clean up. It's an image trace (pixels → paths), not a dimensioned CAD drawing, and it runs right in your browser, so the image never leaves your device.

Live testing. This tool is in active testing — we're refining it based on how it performs on real drawings, and more export formats are on the way. Thanks for your patience while we work through it.

The tool runs entirely in your browser; your file never leaves your device. Images and PDFs supported.

Runs in your browser

Your image never leaves your device — nothing is uploaded. The same privacy stance as the rest of DatumSpot.

Editable vectors, not flat traces

Real SVG paths you can open in Illustrator, Inkscape, or CAD — clean up, recolor, and scale to any size.

Free & no signup

No account, no watermark, no upload queue. Open it and go.

Tuned for drawings

Built for the images pros actually trace: sketches, logos, scanned details, and plan linework.

What you can do

  • Hand sketch → crisp vector linework
  • Logo or stamp → a clean, scalable SVG
  • Scanned detail → editable paths for a drawing set
  • PNG / JPG → SVG for a laser cutter, CNC, or plotter
  • Screenshot of a plan → tidy lines to trace over
