An independent
SVG toolkit.

Who runs this site

Free SVG Online is built and maintained by Anmol Kumar, an independent web developer based in India. There is no company behind it and no team – just one developer who needed these tools often enough to build them properly.

If something is broken, wrong, or missing, that lands in one inbox and gets read: [email protected]. Corrections to the guides are welcome – if an article gets a detail wrong, say so and it will be fixed.

Why it exists

Most free online converters follow the same pattern: upload your file to someone's server, wait in a queue, then hit a daily limit or a watermark unless you subscribe. For a designer converting a client's unreleased logo, the upload step alone is a problem.

Browsers can already do this work. Canvas can decode and re-encode images, JavaScript can trace bitmaps into paths, and the File API can read a local file without a network request. So every tool here runs in your own tab. That removes the server bill, which is what makes an unlimited free tier honest rather than a bait-and-switch.

How it is funded

Advertising, and nothing else. There is no paid tier, no affiliate marketing in the guides, and no sponsored placements in the tool comparisons. When an article recommends a competing product – Inkscape for EPS export, for instance – that is because it is the right answer, not because of a commercial arrangement. Nothing on this site is for sale.

What happens to your files

Nothing leaves your device. Files you drop into a converter are read with the browser's FileReader API and processed in memory. There is no upload endpoint on this site, so there is no server-side copy to lose, leak, or hand over.

You do not have to take that on trust. Open your browser devtools, switch to the Network tab, and run a conversion – you will see the page assets load and nothing else. What we do collect (analytics and advertising cookies) is set out in the privacy policy.

How the tools are built

Vectorization

ImageTracer.js runs the raster-to-SVG trace on an off-screen canvas in your tab.

Rasterization

SVG-to-PNG/JPG/WebP/ICO renders through the browser’s own canvas encoder.

Optimization

A hand-written pass strips editor metadata and rounds path coordinates.

Hosting

Static pages on Cloudflare Pages. The icon CDN is a Cloudflare Pages Function.

About the icon catalog

The catalog has two parts and it is worth being precise about which is which. 179 icons were drawn in-house on a 24 × 24 grid – those are ours, free for commercial use, no attribution. 3,442 company marks are mirrored from the open-source Simple Icons project.

Those company marks are CC0 as artwork but remain registered trademarks of their owners. They are here so you can refer to a company – a sign-in button, a payment row, an integrations grid – not so you can use someone else's mark as your own branding. The terms spell out the distinction.
