About scifig

scifig is an AI-powered platform designed to help researchers, students, and educators generate scientific figures from various inputs, including text descriptions, sketches, reference images, PDFs, and photos. The tool offers editable outputs in multiple publication styles and supports exports to formats such as SVG, PPTX, PNG, and JPG. Users can refine figures after generation, adjusting labels, fonts, and layouts directly within the platform. A free tier allows for limited evaluation, while advanced features like vector exports and high-resolution upscaling require a paid plan. The platform is suitable for creating figures across disciplines, including biology, chemistry, physics, and engineering.

Best for: researchers, students, educators, R&D teams, science communicators
