Algorithmic Ink: Photo to Art

Turn your photos into line art and geometric portraits with Algorithmic Ink. Explore 15 drawing styles—from flowing spirals to triangle mosaics and Voronoi patterns—and export images, editable SVG artwork or drawing videos. Create on your device, without an account or photo uploads.

FROM PHOTO TO PERSONAL ART
Choose a photo, select a drawing style and adjust the result. Remove a distracting background with on-device background removal, which works best on people. Expand the preview, pinch to zoom and inspect the fine details before exporting.

15 DRAWING STYLES TO EXPLORE
Discover Spiral FM, Scribble, Circles, Triangles, Orthogonal, Isometric, Hatch, Ribbon, Rectangles, Square Spiral, Voronoi, Dice, Orbit Line, LBG Stipple and Circle String Art. Each style interprets your photo differently, from flowing paths to geometric shapes and fields of dots.

MAKE THE RESULT YOURS
Adjust detail, contrast and line weight. Choose ink and paper colors, try another variation, and compare different approaches to the same photo. Start with the bundled sample if you want to explore before choosing your own picture.

EXPORT FOR YOUR NEXT CREATIVE STEP
• SVG: editable vector artwork for compatible design tools.
• Animated SVG: a drawing that unfolds over time.
• PNG and JPEG: images to save, print or share.
• MP4: short drawing films with 10, 15 and 30-second presets, plus 720p and 1080p options on supported devices.
• Z-lift G-code: output for compatible pen plotters. Check dimensions, pen heights and machine compatibility before use.

Keep the app open while exporting a film. Rendering time depends on your device and the detail of your artwork.

YOUR OWN LOCAL COLLECTION
Save projects on your device and reopen them to revisit a favorite result. Projects are stored locally, without cloud sync. Export anything you want to keep before uninstalling the app.

CREATE OFFLINE, WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT
The creative tools work offline after installation. No ads, analytics or photo uploads. Sharing happens only when you choose a destination through your device.
