LabFig

What is LabFig?

LabFig is an AI-powered scientific figure generator built for researchers and grad students who need publication-quality figures without spending a day in Illustrator or Figma. Start from anything — a text description, a hand-drawn sketch, a reference figure, a research PDF, or a photo of your whiteboard. LabFig understands them all and converges on one clean, journal-grade figure with the right panels, labels, and arrows in place, generated in seconds. Key features: - Multi-input modes: Text-to-Figure, Sketch-to-Figure, Reference-to-Figure, PDF-to-Figure, and Photo-to-Figure. - Fully editable output: Unlike one-shot AI tools, every text, arrow, shape, and color stays editable after generation. Relabel, recolor, or select a region and regenerate it with a single prompt — no Illustrator or Figma roundtrip. - Publication styles: Match the visual standard of Nature, Cell, or IEEE in one click — Scientific, Line, 3D, Editorial, Sketch, or Watercolor — or let Auto follow your prompt and stay consistent across every figure in your paper. - Sketch-to-figure: Snap a photo of your notebook or whiteboard and LabFig redraws it as a journal-grade figure — fixing geometry, replacing handwriting with clean typography, and aligning every block, arrow, and label. - Vector canvas: Fine-tune labels and arrows precisely, then export to SVG or PDF that drops straight into your submission template. Pick a mode, describe the figure, and get a publication-ready draft in seconds — built for researchers, no design skills needed.

How to use LabFig?

Using LabFig takes three steps. First, pick an input mode — type a text description, upload a hand-drawn sketch, drop in a reference figure, attach a research PDF, or snap a photo of your whiteboard or notebook. Second, choose a publication style (Scientific, Line, 3D, Editorial, Sketch, Watercolor, or Auto) and generate a journal-grade draft in seconds. Third, refine on the vector canvas — relabel any text, recolor a panel, or select a region and regenerate it with a single prompt — then export to SVG or PDF and drop it straight into your manuscript or submission template.
