Install (Homebrew)
brew install --cask jjanisheck/tap/vectoritoA 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:
- Download and unzip
Vectorito-1.0-macos.zip. - 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
- 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.
