Draw your way

A complete vector toolbox, in a floating-palette workflow

Pen, shapes, freehand, gradients and more — arranged the way that made classic illustration software legendary.

Drawing tools

A real pen tool

Draw precise Bézier paths with the Pen, then refine every node with Add Anchor, Delete Anchor and Convert Direction Point. Direct Selection gives you full control over handles.

Gradients, swatches and brushes

Linear, radial and mesh gradients with a dedicated palette. A full swatch library, pattern fills, transparency with blend modes, and custom brushes defined from your own artwork.

Editing & objects

Transform, align and pathfind

Unite, subtract, intersect and exclude shapes; divide, trim, merge and crop. Align & distribute, join and average points, outline strokes, offset paths and round corners — the full path toolbox.

The interface

Layers that stay organized

Name, reorder, lock, hide and color-code your layers from the Layers palette. Everything is stored as clean, standard SVG groups — no proprietary format.

AI Vector Generator

Describe it. Get editable vectors.

Type plain language into the AI Console and get real, layer-aware vectors you can keep editing — insert a single shape or restyle a whole document. Choose your engine: the built-in server (no key needed), or bring your own Claude, OpenAI or Gemini API key with a custom base prompt.
