# Ideogram Vector turns prompts and images into editable SVGs

By Steven Van · 2026-10-22

The model is live in Ideogram and the API, with text-to-vector from $0.13 and image-to-vector at $0.10.

Ideogram shipped [Ideogram Vector](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/ideogram>) on October 22, its first vector model. From a text prompt it generates clean, editable SVGs with smooth gradients and sharp typography, and it can turn an image into a detailed, scalable vector. It is live in Ideogram and in the API.

## How it works

Describe a design and the model returns an editable SVG you can scale, recolor, and refine one shape at a time. An existing image can be converted and compared with the SVG. Ideogram says the artwork stays sharp from a small label to a large poster.

The API calls that model as ideogram-vector-1. Text to vector, POST /v2/svg/generate/ideogram-vector-1, needs a prompt. Image references are optional, and quality is low, medium, or high, defaulting to medium. Image to vector, POST /v2/svg/vectorize/ideogram-vector-1, converts a JPEG, PNG, or WEBP of up to 50 MB without a prompt. Simple mode draws fewer, simpler shapes. The default mode keeps more fine detail. Grouping shapes into layers is not yet available.

## Availability

The vector page lists API prices in US dollars per SVG. Text to vector is $0.13 at low, $0.16 at medium, and $0.20 at high for a prompt alone. Low and medium stay at those prices with image references. High with references is $0.32. Image to vector is $0.10 per image. The announcement and the vector page do not say how many in-app credits a generation uses, or which plan is required. An SVG asset downloads as the original .svg file. Choosing PNG, JPEG, or WEBP for a regular image still saves a pixel file, and writing "vector" in a prompt does not create vector paths. Ideogram says app availability can vary.

## Why it matters

Ideogram Vector is the first model the company has shipped that writes the SVG itself, so a logo, print, or illustration can be scaled and edited as shapes.
