Collection 01
Create a research figure
Turn a written research story or a scanned sketch into a visual draft you can inspect and refine.
AI generatorGraphical Abstract Generator
Turn a research story into a clear, editable visual starting point.
AI generatorScientific Figure Generator
Create visual drafts for mechanisms, workflows, and research communication.
AI generatorMechanism Diagram Generator
Draft causal mechanisms with stages, compartments, and reviewable arrows.
AI generatorPathway Diagram Generator
Explore signaling and metabolic pathway layouts from structured prompts.
AI generatorJournal Cover Generator
Develop visual concepts for journal cover proposals and research highlights.
AI generatorScientific Illustration Generator

AI generatorText to Scientific Figure
Turn a structured scientific description into a visual first draft.
AI generatorSketch to Scientific Figure
Use an uploaded sketch as the starting structure for image-to-image iteration.
Collection 02
Work by discipline
Start from examples and guidance specific to a research domain.
AI generatorBiology Figure Generator
Draft pathways, cell processes, and experimental workflows from text.
AI generatorChemistry Figure Generator
Draft reaction concepts and chemistry workflows while preserving expert review.
AI generatorMedical Illustration Generator
Create educational medical-visual drafts with privacy and non-diagnostic guidance.

Draft neural circuits, brain-region concepts, and experimental workflows.
AI generatorMolecular Biology Figure Generator
Visualize transcription, translation, regulation, and molecular workflows.
AI generatorMicrobiology Figure Generator
Draft microbial structures, infection processes, and laboratory workflows.
AI generatorPhysics Diagram Generator
Explore experimental apparatus, fields, forces, and conceptual diagrams.
AI generatorMaterials Science Figure Generator
Draft battery, lattice, processing, and structure-property visuals.
Collection 03
Change a figure you already have
Upload a finished figure and pick a preset — no prompt writing — or describe the edit you want in plain language.
AI generatorNEWAI Figure Editor
Revise a figure by describing the change, and merge two images into one.
AI generatorNEWFigure Recolor
Swap a figure onto a color-blind-safe or print-safe palette without altering its layout.
AI generatorNEWFigure Style Transfer
Redraw existing figures into one shared visual style across a manuscript.
AI generatorNEWJournal Figure Resize
Reflow a finished figure into a column, banner, cover or square proportion.
AI generatorNEWBackground Cleanup
Replace a cluttered background with a uniform white, gray or black ground.
AI generatorNEWLabel Cleanup
Remove text labels, panel letters, watermarks, arrows or a scale bar.
AI generatorNEWFigure Spec Check
Check dimensions, resolution and color mode against a journal before you submit.
AI generatorNEWTrim Figure Margins
Crop the empty margin around a figure exported from slides or a screenshot.
AI generatorNEWTransparent Background
Turn a white figure background transparent for slides, posters and dark themes.
AI generatorNEWMulti-Panel Figure Maker
Arrange 2–8 panels into one lettered figure, entirely in your browser.
AI generatorNEWFigure Upscale
Redraw an illustrated figure at 2K or 4K — for diagrams, never for data.
AI generatorNEWTranslate Figure Labels
Move the labels inside a finished figure between Chinese and English.
Collection 04
Compare workflows
Choose a tool based on verifiable capabilities, licenses, and editing needs.
Collection 05
Prepare for submission
Check requirements and make informed export decisions.
GuideGraphical Abstract Size Guide
Compare official size and resolution requirements before submission.
GuideGraphical Abstract Examples
Study useful layouts, prompts, and review notes from labeled AI examples.
GuideHow to Make a Graphical Abstract
Follow a practical research-to-visual workflow from outline to submission checks.
Collection 06
In development
These tools are on the roadmap and are not available yet. Tell us which ones you need — the counts decide what gets built next.
Bitmap to vector
Trace line art and flat illustrations into SVG for journals that require vector line art.
Figure legend writer
Draft a figure legend from the image and your methods text, following the conventions of a target journal.
More focused tools will be published only after their content and workflows pass review.
Model workspace
Compare available image models
Review model capabilities and limitations before choosing one for a scientific figure.
