SciFig image models
Choose an image model for the scientific task in front of you
Model names matter less than the workflow. Compare the capabilities SciFig actually exposes, then open a model page with the generator already configured.
Models organized by practical use
Capabilities below are read from the same model registry used by the generator, so supported modes and limits stay aligned with the product.
