Trace a JPG logo or signature into a real vector SVG in your browser, with a speckle filter for JPG noise and 2 to 32 colors. No upload, no wrapper tricks.

It traces your JPG into a genuine vector file. A tracing engine in your browser reads the picture, groups it into color regions and redraws those regions as paths, with your choice of 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 colors. The SVG scales cleanly to any size, because it holds shapes rather than pixels.
Plenty of people hold a logo, a stamp or a signature only as a JPG. Email, scans and old exports all land in JPG. This page gives those files a route to vector, with honest words about what JPG does to a trace along the way.
JPG squeezes pictures by cutting corners the eye forgives in a photo. Around sharp edges it leaves block noise and a faint ringing halo, and inside flat color it hides a faint checker of compression marks. A tracer cannot tell that noise from real design. It faithfully traces the blocks and halos as tiny extra paths and speckles.
That is why a JPG always traces dirtier than the same picture as a PNG. The same logo saved both ways will come out of PNG with clean regions, and out of JPG with the same regions plus a fringe of small junk paths along every edge. The built in speckle filter drops the smallest of those paths, which cleans up a lot, but it cannot invent the clean source you did not give it.
Two habits help. Start from the largest file available, because noise shrinks in relative size as real detail grows. And avoid re-saved JPGs, since each new save adds another layer of noise that gets traced too.
Fewer colors force the tracer to ignore more of the noise along with the detail, so 2 to 8 colors is the sweet spot for logos, stamps and signatures saved as JPG. Higher counts chase shading that JPG has already muddied, and the path count climbs fast.
Photos deserve the same warning they get everywhere in this family. Tracing a photo gives flat poster blocks, not a copy, and a faithful attempt balloons into a huge file of thousands of paths. If the picture started life as a PNG, the PNG to SVG tracer will treat it better. To bring a finished vector back to pixels, use SVG to PNG. More pairs live under image converters.
Large images are traced from a working copy capped at 1000 pixels on the long side, keeping the trace fast and the paths tied to shapes you can actually see.
A shop logo survives only inside old JPG emails, and the printer needs a vector. A signature was photographed and saved as JPG, headed for documents. A scanned stamp needs to sit on invoices at changing sizes. A crafter has a flat design as JPG and wants a cut file.
The tracer runs in your browser, on your device. Your JPG is never uploaded to a server, never stored and never seen by anyone at ToolPeko. Close the tab and nothing remains, which matters when the file is a signature.
JPG noise is the usual cause. Compression blocks and halos around edges get traced as small shapes of their own. Try fewer colors, which lets the speckle filter drop more of them, and start again from the largest, least re-saved JPG you can find.
No. The same picture traces cleaner from PNG, because PNG keeps flat color flat and edges exact. JPG adds noise that the tracer reads as design. If a PNG version exists anywhere, trace that one instead.
Start low. Pick 2 for signatures and stamps, 4 to 8 for logos, and 16 or 32 only for detailed flat art. Lower counts also suppress JPG noise, so a logo that looks speckled at 32 colors often cleans up at 8.
Not a faithful one. Tracing turns photos into flat color posters, and high color counts make enormous files that still look less like the photo than the JPG did. Keep photos in JPG or WebP. Trace logos, line art and signatures instead.
It drops the smallest paths from the result, the ones almost always born from JPG compression marks rather than real shapes. It is built into the settings this tool uses, so you get the cleaner file without hunting for the control.
Scan dark on white at a good size, with the paper flat and evenly lit. Save the scan with as little JPG squeezing as you can, or as PNG if the scanner offers it. Contrast is what a tracer reads, so grey shadows on the paper become grey shapes in the file.
