What AutoDraw is
AutoDraw is a free drawing tool from Google Creative Lab. As you sketch, machine learning guesses what you are drawing and offers polished replacement graphics, so non-artists produce clean visuals.
Output is vector-based and editable, and the tool runs in the browser without registration on web and mobile.

- Sketch an idea and swap in polished graphics
- Fill colors and edit shapes

- Produce quick visuals for decks and classrooms
Who it is for
