Installation

Step 1: Add to Chrome

Visit the Chrome Extension page and click "Add to Chrome". The extension will be added to your browser in seconds.

Step 2: Sign In

Click the VectoSolve icon in your browser toolbar and sign in with your VectoSolve account. If you don't have one, you can create a free account.

Step 3: Add Credits

Before you can vectorize, you'll need credits. Visit the pricing page to purchase credits — they start at just $0.20 per conversion.

Method 1: Right-Click to Vectorize

This is the fastest method for converting images you find while browsing:

  • Find any image on the web
  • Right-click on the image
  • Select "Vectorize with VectoSolve"
  • Wait 2-5 seconds
  • Your SVG downloads automatically!
  • Additional Options

    When you right-click, you'll see three options:

  • Vectorize with VectoSolve ($0.20) — Standard vectorization
  • Remove Background ($0.07) — Remove the background only
  • Remove BG + Vectorize ($0.27) — Both operations
  • Method 2: Drag & Drop in Popup

    Perfect for images saved on your computer:

  • Click the VectoSolve icon in your toolbar
  • Drag an image file onto the drop zone
  • Optionally check "Remove background"
  • Click "Vectorize"
  • Your SVG downloads automatically
  • Tips for Best Results

    Choose the Right Images

  • Logos and icons work best
  • Simple illustrations vectorize well
  • Complex photos may not convert as cleanly
  • When to Remove Background

  • Logo with colored background → Remove BG
  • Icon on white background → Remove BG
  • Already transparent → Skip BG removal
  • Check Your Credits

    Your credit balance is always visible in the extension popup. Click on it to add more credits when needed.

    Troubleshooting
