ABSTRACTOR: PAINT WITH GENERATIVE MAGIC Unleash your vision with Abstractor, a poetic drawing app for iPad and iPhone, crafted for artist explorers and playful creators. Paint with infinite possibilities, where every stroke pulses with generative magic. FLOW BRUSHES: THE HEART OF CREATION Dive into the soul of Abstractor with flow brushes, where particles swirl like living liquids, leaving hypnotic trails across your canvas. These dynamic tools respond to three unique velocity maps: • Stroke Paths: Your gestures carve flowing rivers, guiding particles along vibrant trails. • Image-Driven Flow: Import an image to shape a velocity field, infusing brushes with textured, directional energy. • Algorithmic Soul: Add generated noise or patterns to give particles a distinct character—turbulent storms or gentle ripples. Tune particle behaviors in real time, sculpting their essence like a visual composer. Blend these maps to create mesmerizing, emergent patterns that surprise and inspire, making every stroke a performance. Colors shift with stroke angle, pressure, or speed, weaving emotion into every line. Use familiar layers or bind tools to them for tailored magic. Paint over a color source layer, pulling hues from imported images to craft radiant distortions—flow brushes shine here, warping visuals into dreamlike abstractions. Abstractor is your canvas for boundless wonder. Download now and let your art flow eternal.

Just say what VectorAI 2 should create for you Do you need high-quality graphics quickly, such as an icon for a presentation, a muffin for a party invitation, a stack of gifts and balloons for a birthday card, or a landscape image for your next video project? With VectorAI 2, you simply describe what you want to see — and the app turns your text into impressive artwork. VectorAI 2 uses a completely new AI model for creating both vector-based and pixel-based images. It can generate logos, clipart, illustrations, icons, scenes, and even realistic artwork. The more precisely you describe the result you want, the more control you have over the final image. A different approach to image generation VectorAI 2 is designed to follow your description as closely as possible. Instead of freely adding extra ideas or replacing missing information with guesses, it focuses on the details you provide. This gives you more control, but it also means that precise prompts lead to the best results. For example, a prompt such as “A flag on a flagpole with a green background, a blue dot, and a yellow decoration along the edges” will usually produce a more accurate result than a vague request such as “the flag of country XY” or “the football jersey of club YZ”. Features • Create vector-based and pixel-based artwork from text descriptions • No subscription, unlimited usage • Generate logos, icons, clipart, illustrations, scenes, and realistic images • Choose from a wide range of styles • Create images in different aspect ratios • Use detailed prompts, including visible text or labels within the image • Export your results in common vector and image formats, including PDF, SVG, PNG, and JPG • Continue editing vector artwork in Logoist 6 or another compatible vector design app VectorAI or Logoist 6? VectorAI is also included in Logoist 6, our full vector and graphic design app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone. If you already own Logoist 6, you do not need to purchase VectorAI separately. The standalone VectorAI app is ideal if you mainly want to create images and vector artwork from text prompts without using the full Logoist design environment. If you want to edit paths, apply advanced styles and effects, build full design projects, or work with 3D features, Logoist 6 is the better choice. Of course, you can also export VectorAI results for use in other apps, but VectorAI artwork is especially well optimised for further editing in Logoist.
