What is FigCanvas?

FigCanvas is an AI-powered scientific figure generator designed for researchers. It allows users to create scientific illustrations, flowcharts, and data visualizations from text prompts or uploaded data. The platform aims to produce publication-ready figures that meet the visual standards of top-tier journals like Nature, Science, and Cell.

How to use FigCanvas?

To use FigCanvas, start by describing your figure in a plain-language prompt or upload your dataset. The AI generates a first draft in under two minutes. You can then refine the figure using the infinite canvas, edit SVG elements directly in the browser, and export the final figure as SVG, 300 DPI PNG, or PDF for manuscripts, posters, and presentations.
