Switch from Vector Magic
A Vector Magic alternative you buy once and run offline
A Vector Magic alternative should do one job well: turn raster images into clean SVG without a meter running on every file. SVG Genie Desktop runs offline on Mac and Windows, converts whole folders in one pass, and costs a single one-time price instead of a subscription or per-image credits.
Desktop stays $99 one-time, or get it included free with Agency Annual.
Why desktop
Built for offline SVG conversion work that keeps coming back
When the job is repeated image-to-SVG conversion, the desktop app is the better fit: local files, faster turnaround, and a workflow that does not depend on constant uploads.
One-time price, not a subscription
Pay once for SVG Genie Desktop instead of renting a vectorizer or buying credits every time you need an SVG.
100% offline tracing
Convert images to SVG locally so logos and client files never leave your computer.
Batch whole folders
Point the app at a folder and export a full set of SVGs in one run instead of tracing each file by hand.
