The whole process

Upload to install, five steps.

Most jobs run 24 hours from upload to download. Here's exactly what happens — and how long each step takes.

The short answer

VectorWiz runs in five steps: (1) Upload source files (PNG, JPG, PSD, etc.) and tell us about the job; (2) See your instant price, graded by complexity the moment the file uploads; (3) Order & check out by card or subscription credits and work begins; (4) Drawn by hand by a single named designer (no auto-tracing, no AI); (5) Delivered as a layered AI + EPS + SVG + PDF zip in your inbox, with DXF on request. Total clock time: typically 24 hours; rush jobs in 12.

If a designer opens the file and the real scope differs from the estimate, we flag it before charging anything extra.
