Install (Homebrew)

brew install --cask jjanisheck/tap/vectorito

A lean macOS menu-bar app that turns images into clean SVG — with AI picking the trace settings.

Install

The download is unsigned (no Apple Developer ID yet), so macOS Gatekeeper will block it on first launch. To open it:

  1. Download and unzip Vectorito-1.0-macos.zip.
  2. Right-click (or Control-click) Vectorito.app → Open, then click Open in the dialog.
    • Only needed once — after that it launches normally.
    • If it's still blocked, run: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /path/to/Vectorito.app
  3. Vectorito lives in the menu bar (the mustache icon) — there's no Dock icon. Click it to open the popover.

Highlights

  • Menu-bar popover: drop an image, AI reads it and chooses the settings, get a before/after result.
  • Bundled vtracer (nothing to install) + median-cut color quantization for a true "Colors: N" control.
  • Before/after compare slider with scroll-to-zoom.
  • Analog console — rotary knobs (Colors/Noise/Corners/Tightness) + Color/B&W rocker; twist to refine, preview updates live.
  • Download SVG named after the input; per-image OpenAI token/cost logging.
  • Optional OpenAI key (Keychain); no key → sensible defaults, no network calls.

Requires macOS 13+ (Apple Silicon). Build from source with XcodeGen — see README.
