Today, we’re introducing Arrow 2.0, our most significant update yet. It brings faster generation and better visual quality to animation, vectorization, and asset creation.

Our philosophy remains simple: vectors should be intentionally crafted through code. Arrow 2.0 pairs that foundation with a stronger grasp of design fundamentals.

## A massive leap in speed

In creative workflows, latency is friction. Whether you're producing a complex technical diagram or batch-processing a folder of sketches, waiting breaks the flow.

Arrow 2.0 brings faster generation, giving you more time to test directions, refine prompts, and compare results.

## Upgraded quality and taste

Arrow 2.0 makes more deliberate visual decisions, with upgrades that are immediately visible in its output:

- **Cleaner geometry:** SVGs use fewer, more precise control points, reducing unnecessary nodes and messy, overlapping paths.
- **Stronger composition:** Elements naturally respect spacing, padding, and alignment without exhaustive prompt engineering.

## From a brief to a finished asset

Here’s how those improvements translate into everyday design work.

### Illustrations

Start with a reference and Arrow 2.0 can produce new variations that retain its palette, shape language, and graphic treatment.

### Illustrative Diagrams

For diagrams, emphasis matters. Here, targeted muscle groups are highlighted in red while the surrounding anatomy remains clear.

### Technical drawings and line work

Technical drawings depend on details that stay consistent across variations. These jacket directions preserve seams, closures, and panel construction so each concept is easy to compare.

### Vectorization

Vectorize raster images into editable SVGs that teams can refine, scale, and reuse across products and brand assets.

## Micro Animations

Arrow 2.0 brings motion to static SVG assets, creating web-ready animations for logo reveals, loading states, motion graphics, product illustrations, and animated icons.

It animates the shapes and groups already present in an SVG, making it well suited to interface motion and flat, structured artwork.

## The next evolution of Arrow

Arrow 2 Telos combines Arrow’s speed with the refinement capabilities of frontier models. Built for demanding creative work, it gives teams more room to explore complex styles, compositions, and requirements.

Choose Arrow 2.0 when speed and cost per asset are the priority. Choose Telos for harder briefs that benefit from additional refinement.
