Why this tool exists

A focused workflow, without the design-app overhead

Turn a fixed-pixel BMP source into editable SVG shapes. The vectorization model is designed for real vector output, making the result easier to scale, recolor, and refine than an image embedded inside an SVG wrapper.

Useful for

  • Moving legacy Windows artwork and uncompressed source images into a SVG workflow
  • Creating editable shapes from fixed-pixel artwork
  • Fast one-off conversions with a preview before download

How to use it

From input to finished asset

  1. 01

    Choose a BMP file

    Drop the source into the workspace or use the file picker. The tool checks the file before conversion starts.

  2. 02

    Vectorize the artwork

    Sign in and run AI vectorization. High-contrast logos and drawings tend to produce simpler paths than detailed photos.

  3. 03

    Download SVG

    Inspect the result and file details, then save the converted SVG file to your device.

About BMP

BMP stores pixel data with little or no compression, which makes files large but straightforward for many desktop tools to read.

About SVG

SVG stores shapes, paths, text, and styling as XML. It scales cleanly and remains editable in browsers, code editors, and vector design tools.

Vectorization, not embedding

The service rebuilds the image with SVG paths and shapes. It does not place the original bitmap inside an SVG container.

Account and credit required

AI vectorization runs on GenSVG's service and uses one generation credit. The workspace tells you before processing begins.

Common questions

How do I convert BMP to SVG?+

Choose a BMP file in the converter, review the available output settings, and start the conversion. When the preview is ready, download the new SVG file.

Will converting BMP to SVG change image quality?+

Vectorization rebuilds the visible image as SVG shapes, so the result is an interpretation rather than a pixel-for-pixel copy. Clear, high-contrast source artwork usually produces the cleanest paths.

Are my BMP files uploaded?+

Image-to-SVG vectorization uses GenSVG's generation service and requires an account because the image must be processed by the vectorization model.

What is SVG best used for?+

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is well suited to icons, logos, diagrams, web graphics, and cutting files.
