# Introducing the VectoSolve Chrome Extension: Vectorize Any Image with One Click > We're excited to announce the VectoSolve Chrome Extension, letting you convert any image to SVG directly from your browser. Right-click to vectorize, no more downloading and uploading. **Source:** https://vectosolve.com/blog/vectosolve-chrome-extension-launch **Author:** Robin Monteiro (Founder of VectoSolve) **Published:** 2026-02-05 **Last updated:** 2026-10-10 **Category:** Technology **Reading time:** 8 min **Tags:** chrome extension, product launch, vectorization, browser extension, svg converter --- :::takeaways - The VectoSolve Chrome Extension lets you vectorize any image on any website with one right-click - Works on any image you can see in your browser — no downloading and re-uploading - Available for Chrome and Firefox (Chromium-based browsers supported too) - Same AI vectorization quality as the main app, directly in your browser ::: You are browsing a client's website and spot their logo in the footer. It is a PNG. They need it as an SVG for print. Normally you would: right-click, save image, open VectoSolve, upload, convert, download. Six steps. With the Chrome Extension: right-click the image, click "Vectorize with VectoSolve." One step. The SVG is ready in seconds. --- ## Why a Browser Extension? Designers and developers encounter images that need vectorizing everywhere — not just in their own file system. Client websites, competitor analysis, design inspiration, stock photo previews, social media assets, documentation screenshots. The extension brings vectorization to where you already are: your browser. --- ## How It Works ### Step 1: Install Get it from the [Chrome Web Store](https://chromewebstore.google.com) or [Firefox Add-ons](https://addons.mozilla.org). Search for "VectoSolve" and click install. The extension icon appears in your browser toolbar. ### Step 2: Right-Click Any Image Navigate to any webpage. Right-click on any image — PNGs, JPGs, WebPs, even SVGs that you want to re-optimize. The context menu shows "Vectorize with VectoSolve." ### Step 3: Convert Click the menu option. The extension sends the image to VectoSolve's AI vectorization engine. In 5-15 seconds, your SVG is ready. ### Step 4: Download A preview opens showing the vectorized result. Download the SVG directly or open it in VectoSolve's dashboard for further editing, animation, or content generation. :::tip The extension works on images loaded from any source — even images embedded in CSS backgrounds, canvas elements, and inline base64 data URIs. If you can see it in your browser, you can vectorize it. ::: --- ## Real Workflow Examples ### Client Logo Recovery Your client's original logo files are lost. Their website has a 200x80 pixel PNG in the header. Right-click, vectorize, deliver a clean SVG back to them. Total time: 30 seconds. ### Design Research Browsing Dribbble for icon inspiration. See a style you want to reference. Vectorize the screenshot to get clean paths you can study and learn from in your vector editor. ### Competitive Analysis Reviewing competitor websites. Need their icon style as a reference? Vectorize a few examples to analyze path structures, stroke weights, and design patterns in your vector software. ### Quick Asset Extraction A developer needs SVG icons from a design system documentation page. Instead of requesting access to the Figma file, right-click each icon and vectorize. Ship the feature now. --- ## What Makes It Different from Screenshot-to-SVG Tools Some extensions just trace screenshots. VectoSolve's extension sends the **actual image data** (not a screenshot of it) to the same AI vectorization engine that powers the main app. This means: - **Full resolution input.** The extension grabs the original image file, not a screen-resolution capture - **Same quality as the web app.** Identical AI processing pipeline - **Clean SVG output.** Optimized paths, proper viewBox, minimal file size --- ## Supported Browsers | Browser | Support | Install Link | |---|---|---| | **Google Chrome** | Full | Chrome Web Store | | **Microsoft Edge** | Full (Chromium) | Chrome Web Store | | **Brave** | Full (Chromium) | Chrome Web Store | | **Opera** | Full (Chromium) | Chrome Web Store | | **Firefox** | Full | Firefox Add-ons | | **Safari** | Not yet | Coming soon | --- ## Extension Settings Click the VectoSolve icon in your toolbar to access settings: - **Default quality tier:** Set Eco, Standard, or Pro as your default - **Auto-download:** Automatically save the SVG after conversion - **Notification preference:** Desktop notification when conversion completes - **Account linking:** Connect to your VectoSolve account for credit usage :::info The extension uses the same credits as your VectoSolve account. No separate pricing. If you have credits in your dashboard, the extension uses them. ::: --- ## Privacy and Security The extension only activates when you explicitly right-click and select "Vectorize." It does not: - Scan or analyze pages you visit - Track your browsing history - Access any data beyond the specific image you click - Run in the background The image is sent directly to VectoSolve's servers over HTTPS, processed, and the result is returned. No third parties involved. --- Install the extension and start vectorizing with one click. [Get it for Chrome](https://chromewebstore.google.com) or [Firefox](https://addons.mozilla.org) — it is free to install. ---
