Description
SciFigureAI is an AI scientific figure maker for researchers. It turns paper abstracts, mechanism descriptions, protocol steps, and research ideas into clean figure drafts for papers, posters, grants, slides, and science communication, so you can start from natural language instead of a blank canvas.

Unlike template libraries or general image generators that produce hard-to-edit pixels, SciFigureAI is tuned for scientific visuals such as graphical abstracts, mechanism diagrams, workflows, and concept figures, with a prompt-based revision and export path. It supports text-to-figure, sketch-to-figure, and image editing inputs, and covers biology, medicine, chemistry, materials science, pharmacology, immunology, neuroscience, engineering, and broader research communication.
The workflow moves from a text prompt to a figure draft to refinement and export in one workspace, with multiple visual styles including schematic, 3D, photorealistic, workflow, mechanism, and graphical abstract. You can download generated images and use credits to export PPTX or SVG files for presentation and editing workflows. The tool emphasizes that scientific accuracy remains the researcher's responsibility, so drafts should be reviewed before formal use.
SciFigureAI uses a credit-based system where generating, editing, or exporting a figure spends credits while preview downloads stay free. It offers free starter credits, monthly subscription tiers, and pay-as-you-go credit packs, with commercial use included on paid plans subject to terms.
