What is LabFig?

LabFig is an AI-powered scientific figure generator designed for researchers and graduate students. It transforms text descriptions, hand-drawn sketches, reference figures, research PDFs, and lab photos into publication-ready scientific figures. The platform emphasizes editable vector output, journal-grade visual styles, and verification of labels and relationships before use.

How to use LabFig?

Pick a mode (Text, Image, PDF, Prompt, etc.), describe the figure or upload your input, generate a draft, then verify labels and relationships before use. Users can start from templates, tweak prompts, and edit every label, arrow, and color on the vector canvas after generation.
