Vector graphics use shapes and coordinates rather than pixels, making them scalable and editable, and are widely used for charts, diagrams, maps, and brand assets. F13 claims existing image models struggle to produce accurate charts or proportionate diagrams and are slow to render. Its model accepts text, images, or existing graphics as input and outputs fully editable designs, reportedly outperforming general-purpose image and code models in internal tests. Early access is available via API and web app, with public launch planned later this year. The founding team includes CEO Gregory Janik, a two-time exited entrepreneur, and ML researcher Ingimar Tomasson, alongside former Meta and Porsche researchers and designers who worked with Versace, Gucci, and Nike. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.

Vector graphics are made of shapes and coordinates rather than pixels, so they can be resized without quality loss and have individual lines edited. General-purpose image models can produce creative visuals but often fail to match exact data in charts or maintain correct proportions in diagrams, and can take minutes to render a single visual, whereas a dedicated vector model aims for accuracy and editability. _Developers evaluating design AI tooling can follow vector graphics model developments on daily.dev._ ### How much funding did F13 raise for its vector graphics AI model and who led the round? F13 raised a $5M pre-seed round led by Credo Ventures and Point Nine Capital, with participation from angel investors Carles Reina of Baobab Ventures and Jack Richardson of Mainframe. The funds will support bringing its first model to market and fund additional compute, data, and staff as the company builds models for more complex design tasks. _Founders tracking early-stage AI funding rounds can follow companies like F13 on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [For the Love of Craft: Vectorize Images in Figma Design and Draw](https://daily.dev/posts/for-the-love-of-craft-vectorize-images-in-figma-design-and-draw-z4a05tv5h) · Figma · 5 upvotes · 0 comments - [Your Design Tools Just Got a Model Picker And That Changes How You Work](https://daily.dev/posts/your-design-tools-just-got-a-model-picker-and-that-changes-how-you-work-h9aeg2o3o) · Medium · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#startup](https://daily.dev/tags/startup), [#genai](https://daily.dev/tags/genai) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/f13-raises-5m-pre-seed-to-build-an-ai-model-for-precise-vector-graphics-sirhcuwl5) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"F13 raises $5M pre-seed to build an AI model for precise vector graphics","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/f13-raises-5m-pre-seed-to-build-an-ai-model-for-precise-vector-graphics-sirhcuwl5","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/f13-raises-5m-pre-seed-to-build-an-ai-model-for-precise-vector-graphics-sirhcuwl5"},"datePublished":"2026-09-23T07:12:09.156Z","dateModified":"2026-09-23T07:12:27.716Z","description":"F13, an AI startup building models to generate precise, editable vector graphics, has emerged from stealth with a $5M pre-seed round led by Credo Ventures and...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/c00cc8bca49fb846c44c2de6ece920ce?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/c00cc8bca49fb846c44c2de6ece920ce?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"The Next Web","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"The Next Web","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/tnw","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/tnw"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/f13-raises-5m-pre-seed-to-build-an-ai-model-for-precise-vector-graphics-sirhcuwl5","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"startup,genai","timeRequired":"PT3M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"The Next Web","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/tnw"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"F13 raises $5M pre-seed to build an AI model for precise vector graphics"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/f13-raises-5m-pre-seed-to-build-an-ai-model-for-precise-vector-graphics-sirhcuwl5#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What makes AI-generated vector graphics different from AI image generation for charts and diagrams?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Vector graphics are made of shapes and coordinates rather than pixels, so they can be resized without quality loss and have individual lines edited.
