About FigEditor
What is FigEditor?
FigEditor is an AI-powered scientific figure generator that helps researchers create editable visuals for papers, presentations, and graphical abstracts. Instead of starting from scratch, you can begin with a text prompt, a rough sketch, or a reference image, and then refine labels, arrows, modules, colors, or layout in an interactive workspace.How does it solve your problem?
Traditional graphic design tools are time-consuming and not tailored to scientific communication. FigEditor streamlines the process by offering specialist workflows for scientific illustration, poster making, graphical abstracts, infographics, and text-to-diagram conversion. It allows you to export editable SVG or high-resolution PNG files, so you can fine-tune every element without losing quality.Who is it for?
FigEditor is built for researchers, scientists, and academics who need publication-ready figures. It is ideal for those who want to turn research notes into polished visuals quickly. It is not for non-scientific graphic design needs or for users seeking a general-purpose image editor.Key features
- Text to figure — Describe your mechanism or workflow in natural language and get an editable draft.
- Sketch to polished figure — Upload a rough sketch and transform it into a clear academic composition.
- Reference image to figure — Preserve key structure while improving labels and visual hierarchy.
- Editable vector drafts — Export SVG or high-res PNG for further refinement.
- Specialist workflows — Use dedicated tools for scientific illustration, posters, graphical abstracts, infographics, and diagrams.
- Image model options — Choose from Nano Banana, Nano Banana 2, Nano Banana Pro, or GPT Image 2 for tailored generation.
