Are my papers, prompts, and uploaded images used for training?

Uploaded material is processed to provide the service and may pass through third-party providers used for generation, file storage, or analytics. Our current policy also permits the use needed to provide and improve the service; it does not state a blanket no-training guarantee. Do not upload confidential or unpublished material unless you have permission.

How should I verify the scientific accuracy of an AI-generated figure?

Treat every result as an editable draft. Check labels, values, arrows, citations, anatomy, scale bars, panel relationships, and scientific claims against your source material. The researcher remains responsible for the final scientific review.

Who owns the uploaded material and generated output?

You retain rights to content you submit. Rights and permitted uses for generated output can depend on your jurisdiction, source material, and third-party model terms. Confirm that you have permission to use every upload and review the applicable policies before publishing or commercial use.

Are credits returned when a generation fails?

When a tracked generation reaches a technical failed state, its deducted credits are automatically returned once and recorded in your credit history. A completed result that does not match your preference is not treated as a technical failure. Contact support if the task status and credit balance do not match.

Can I match a journal's size, resolution, and file requirements?

FigEditor supports editable SVG, high-resolution PNG and JPG, multiple aspect ratios, and model-dependent 1K, 2K, or 4K output. These options do not guarantee compliance with every journal. Check the target width, DPI, color mode, file format, and AI disclosure policy, then revise the export as required.

What kinds of scientific figures can I create?

You can create mechanism diagrams, experimental workflows, pathway figures, graphical abstracts, microstructure visuals, study schematics, and other figures for papers, posters, and presentations.

Can FigEditor turn my sketch into a finished figure?

Yes. Upload a hand-drawn sketch, flowchart, or low-fidelity layout. FigEditor uses the structure as a guide and creates a cleaner draft that you can refine before export.

Why choose FigEditor

Why choose FigEditor for scientific figures?

Generate from text, polish a sketch, follow a reference style, or vectorize an existing figure without rebuilding everything from scratch.

Text to figure

Turn a research idea into a scientific figure

Describe a mechanism, pathway, workflow, or experiment. FigEditor creates a structured first draft you can refine for a paper, poster, or presentation.

Create from Text

Sketch to figure

Turn a rough sketch into a polished research figure

Upload a hand-drawn concept, structure draft, or early layout. FigEditor keeps the core logic while turning it into a cleaner figure you can continue editing.

Polish a Sketch

Reference to figure

Create an original figure in the style you choose

Upload a visual reference to guide composition, palette, and density while applying that direction to your own scientific content.

Use a Reference

Figure vectorizer

Make a flat scientific figure editable again

Convert an existing PNG or JPG into scalable vector assets, then update labels, colors, and layout in your preferred design or presentation tool.

Vectorize a Figure

Scientific figure workflow

From research idea to editable figure in three clear steps

Keep scientific review in your hands while AI accelerates the repetitive work of drafting and visual organization.

STEP 01
Define the scientific story
Start with a prompt, sketch, or reference. Describe the relationships, labels, and visual emphasis your figure needs.
STEP 02
Generate a structured draft
Create a coherent first version with a readable hierarchy, consistent visual language, and research-focused composition.
STEP 03
Review, refine, and export
Verify the science, adjust labels and styling, then export the figure for your manuscript, poster, or presentation.
