SciFig — Free AI Scientific Figure Generator for Researchers

Overview

AI scientific figure generator for researchers. Turn text, sketches, references, PDFs or photos into publication-ready figures with editable labels and layouts.

From text, sketch, reference, PDF, or photo, SciFig generates your figure in one of six publication styles — scientific, line, 3D, editorial, sketch, or watercolor — engineered to match Nature, Cell, and Science. Auto mode skips the style overlay and follows your prompt alone.

Unlike one-shot AI, SciFig keeps everything editable after generation — change any text's content, font, size, or position directly, select a region and regenerate it with a natural-language prompt, or feed a PDF as context for smarter edits.

Details

Export figures as editable PPTX or layered SVG, then fine-tune every shape, color, and label in SciFig's built-in canvas with full undo/redo. No Illustrator or Figma roundtrip needed.

“I used to spend an entire day redrawing scientific figures for revision. With SciFig I describe the change in one sentence and get a publication-ready scientific figure in minutes.”

“The editable PPT export is a game-changer. I can fine-tune labels and colors right in PowerPoint instead of going back to Illustrator every time a reviewer asks for changes.”
