If you search for ‘vectorization AI’ there are a handful of specialized tools and apis that can do it. It worked well for a handful of logos I wanted to convert. Nano banana generated the raster logos, and these other tools vectorized them

Yes, these AI tools are good at drawing JPGs or PNGs, but not so good at generating SVGs. I searched for several image-to-SVG tools, and the best one was this Adobe tool: https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/convert/svg. After converting to SVG, I used Figma to fine-tune it.

Free idea: turn this into an MCP server. Give the agent the ability to virtually "hover" a path and see which part of the final render it corresponds to

It seems like the problem of pushing pixels around in an exact way and iterating on visual design is a problem that needs very specialized tools, regardless whether there is LLM support.

Same! My use case is 2d splines for use in openSCAD, stuff that eventually arrives at my doorstep from a 3d printing service. I just love the ability to overlay reference bitmaps, super valuable for the parts I've been making.

Before stumbling upon this tool, I've spent a lot of time tweaking SVP paths in "mostly manual" files in other projects, it's a recurring theme for me. I was delegating the more interesting paths to Inkscape or similar, but keeping the basic structure handwritten. This tool would have made my life so much easier!

I'm in the opposite camp. Give me some local tool that does disappear when the maintainer moves to the next thing.

Well and I can eat the cake as well, make it some native app that has proper performance.

I tried it in Firefox and Chrome, but changing the SVG shape did not change the favicon displayed on the tab. I don't think I understand what you meant.

PS: This submission of mine is at least a day old, but it now shows as posted about 3 hours ago; I presume this is because it is from the second-chance pool.
