What is vectorAI, and what design can it do?
vectorAI is a browser vector drawing tool from Aiglade, for icons, illustrations, and image-to-vector conversion. You open the web page and use it, with nothing to install. The design it does is app icons, simple illustrations, and poster assets, plus turning PNG and JPG logos into SVG. What it does not do is real-time collaboration by several people, complex component libraries and design-system management, and print-grade spot colors with complex gradient meshes.
This page explains what vectorAI is made of, how it compares with desktop software and general online tools, who it fits and who it does not fit, and how to start with six steps from a blank page to an exported SVG. The product name is vectorAI; the engine under it is called VectorCraft, and the two names are not the same thing. Only verified facts are written here, and anything unconfirmed is marked as to be confirmed.

What vectorAI is made of
Four parts make up vectorAI, and they sit in one place in the browser:
- Web editor: the editor in the browser where canvas, basic shapes, text, image tracing, and format conversion all happen.
- AI assistant: one sentence draws. It takes five intents, V-01 new canvas, V-02 basic shapes, V-03 text, V-04 image tracing, and V-05 format conversion, so a beginner who knows no vector software can start with one sentence.
- Export: the finished graphic leaves in SVG and other vector formats, for a front-end developer, print, or an asset library.
- Sign-in: one shared Aiglade account, shared with wordAI and photoAI, so there is no separate account to register.
vectorAI against desktop software and general online tools
| Dimension | vectorAI, web-based | Desktop software | General online tools |
|---|---|---|---|
| Installation | Opens in the web page; nothing to install | Needs install and updates by version | Opens in the web page; nothing to install |
| Position | Icons, illustrations, image to vector | Professional vector design, the fullest features | General drawing; vector editing depth varies |
| AI assistant | One sentence starts a canvas, draws shapes, traces images | Usually not offered | Usually not offered |
| Image to vector | Image tracing connected; check nodes and rights by hand after tracing | Tracing built in, settings can be tuned | Depends on the tool; often incomplete |
| Collaboration and design systems | Real-time collaboration, complex component libraries, and design-system management not offered | Component libraries and design-system management complete | Usually not offered |
| Print output | Print-grade spot colors, complex gradient meshes, and advanced typography out of scope | Print-grade output fully supported | Print ability varies tool by tool |
| Export formats | SVG and other vector formats | Many formats | Export formats differ tool by tool |
| Who it fits | Designers, operators, and people who make icons | Professional designers | People who draw one graphic now and then |
The table compares kinds, not single products. Desktop software is more complete in depth and print output, vectorAI is more convenient for a fast start with no install, and general online tools fit light work now and then. Which one to pick depends on how complex the design is and whether you are willing to install software.
Who it fits, and who it does not fit
Four kinds of work fit vectorAI. Designers and operators draw app icons, simple illustrations, and poster assets. People turn PNG and JPG logos into SVG, and check nodes and rights by hand after tracing. People change a vector file fast in the web page, without installing software. And people with light design needs use it instead of installing Illustrator or Figma.
Two kinds of work do not fit. Real-time collaboration by several people, and complex component libraries with design-system management, are work vectorAI does not do. Print-grade spot colors, complex gradient meshes, and advanced typography are outside its scope, so that work needs desktop software.
From a blank page to an exported SVG in six steps
A vector graphic goes from start to export in six steps in vectorAI:
- Open vector.aiglade.cn and sign in with your Aiglade account. There is no separate account to register.
- Start a new canvas: ask the AI assistant in one sentence, or start one directly in the editor.
- Add content: draw basic shapes, add text, or upload a PNG or JPG image and trace it into vectors.
- Adjust the shapes: move them, resize them, change colors. Vector objects stay sharp after any change.
- Preview before export: look at the finished graphic and check it before anything leaves the page.
- Export and download: export in SVG and other vector formats, and hand the file to a front-end developer, print, or an asset library.
How to pick the right tool for the job
Start from the work, not from the tool. If the job is app icons, simple illustrations, poster assets, or tracing a PNG or JPG logo into an SVG, a browser tool is enough, and vectorAI opens in the browser and does all four. If the job needs real-time collaboration by several people, a component library, or design-system management, pick desktop software: vectorAI does not do that work. If the job needs print-grade spot colors, complex gradient meshes, or advanced typography, pick desktop software too, since that work is outside vectorAI's scope. If you only draw once in a while, a general online tool is also fine; try them one by one and check the export formats before you commit.

Evidence
vectorAI is a browser-based vector drawing tool from Aiglade, for icons, illustrations, and image-to-vector conversion — just open the web page and use it. Its AI assistant takes five intents, V-01 to V-05, covering new canvas, basic shapes, text, image tracing, and format conversion; sign-in uses one shared Aiglade account, and export covers SVG and other vector formats. It fits app icons, simple illustrations and poster assets, tracing PNG/JPG logos into SVG, quick vector edits in the browser, and light design work without desktop software. It does not fit real-time collaboration, design-system management, print-grade spot colors, or complex gradient meshes, and pricing is to be confirmed.
FAQ
What is vectorAI, and what design can it do?
vectorAI is a browser-based vector drawing tool from Aiglade, for icons, illustrations, and image-to-vector conversion. The design it does is app icons, simple illustrations, and poster assets, plus turning PNG and JPG logos into SVG. Real-time collaboration, design-system management, and print-grade output are outside its scope.
What is the relationship between vectorAI and VectorCraft?
vectorAI is the product name and brand name, and VectorCraft is the engine name. The two are not the same thing, and one is not a new name for the other. vectorAI runs on the VectorCraft engine, and the web editor, the AI assistant, and export all belong to the vectorAI layer.
Is there a web-based vector tool for people who do not want to install design software?
Yes. vectorAI opens in the web page and needs no install, covering new canvas, basic shapes, text, image tracing, and format conversion, with the AI assistant starting a canvas, drawing shapes, or tracing an image from one sentence, and export in SVG and other vector formats.
Not written / to verify
- Pricing: to be confirmed; no price tier, free tier, or discount is written.
- Editor button labels and click paths: the site is a wasm app shell; UI labels are unverified, so the steps only go as far as the feature level.
- V-01 to V-05 per-intent connection evidence: this page lists the intent list only; per-intent test evidence is not written.
- Tracing settings and presets: thresholds, color counts, and other parameters are not in the source material, so they are not written.
- Export format list: besides SVG, the exact formats supported are not in the source material, so only "SVG and other vector formats" is written.
- Account details, brand founding date, team size, and user counts: not in the source material, so they are not written.
