How it works

Three seconds.
Three steps.

01

Drop

Drag any PNG, JPG, WebP, or AVIF image onto the app window. That's it — no file pickers, no menus.

02

Trace

Vector Drop upscales your image 3x and runs an optimized potrace pipeline for crisp, detailed SVG paths.

03

Copy

One click copies clean SVG to your clipboard. Paste directly into Figma, Paper, Sketch, or any design tool.

★★★★★

"I was paying $55/month for Illustrator literally just to use Image Trace on client logos. That's $660 a year for one feature. Vector Drop does the same thing for free and the output is honestly cleaner."

★★★★★

"Vector Magic wanted $300 for a desktop license. I found Vector Drop on a whim and haven't looked back. Drag, drop, paste into Figma. Done."

JK
James Kim UI/UX Designer
★★★★★

"Every online converter I tried either watermarked the SVG or limited me to 3 free conversions. Vector Drop is genuinely free. Wild that this exists."

AL
Ana Lopes Product Designer at a Startup
★★★★★

"The fact that it works completely offline is huge. No uploading sensitive client assets to random servers. Just works."

Small app.
Serious output.

3x Upscale Pipeline

Images are upscaled with Lanczos3 filtering before tracing, preserving fine details and sharp text that other tools lose.

Native Desktop App

Built with Tauri and Rust. Starts instantly, uses minimal memory, and runs entirely on your machine — no Electron bloat.

Optimized Tracing

Hand-tuned potrace parameters balance smooth curves with sharp corners — optimized for logos, icons, and text.

Instant Clipboard

One click or Cmd+C copies clean SVG markup. Paste directly into Figma, Paper, Sketch, or your code editor.
