AutoDraw is an AI-powered drawing tool launched by Google Creative Lab as part of their collection of AI experiments. The tool is designed to make digital drawing fast, fun, and accessible for everyone, regardless of skill and talent.
The tool uses neural network artificial intelligence to guess what you’re trying to draw. At this moment, it can successfully guess hundreds of drawings.
As the tool guesses what you’re trying to draw, it suggests similar drawings made by talented artists from its database. You can replace your doodle with any of these.
Main Features
AutoDraw is a free tool designed to convert your rough sketch into a polished version. It’s web-based, so it works on every web browser on any device. This includes your smartphone, tablet, laptop, and desktop.
You don’t need to save anything locally on your devices or install an app. You don’t even need an account or any special input. Use your device normally with a mouse, touch, or stylus.
The drawings on the site are made by professional artists, designers, and illustrators. However, anyone can submit their drawings to the tool using the web page AutoDraw Artists.
