Trace images to vectors, inside Figma.
Image Tracer converts raster logos, icons, illustrations, and photos into scalable vector paths — with precision controls, no Illustrator needed.
Everything Image Tracer Does
Built for designers who need clean vectors without switching apps.
Raster to vector tracing
Convert PNG and JPG images into scalable vector paths directly inside Figma.
Precision path controls
Tune how closely the trace follows your original image before you commit.
Logos, icons & photos
Works across a range of source material, from simple logos to more detailed photos.
No external tools needed
Skip the Illustrator round-trip — trace, edit, and use the result all inside Figma.

Open in Figma CommunityFrequently Asked Questions
Is Image Tracer free?
Yes. Image Tracer is completely free to install and use from the Figma Community — there is no paid tier.
What kinds of images can I trace?
Logos, icons, illustrations, and photos — anything raster (PNG, JPG) that you want converted into scalable vector paths.
Do I still need Illustrator for vector tracing?
No. Image Tracer traces raster images to vector paths directly inside Figma, so you can skip round-tripping through Illustrator entirely.
Can I control how precise the trace is?
Yes. Image Tracer includes precision controls so you can tune how closely the vector output follows the original raster image.
What do I get after tracing — an image or editable vectors?
Editable vector paths as native Figma layers, which you can then style, recolor, or edit like any other vector shape.
