Fig0 is an AI-powered platform that generates publication-ready scientific figures from text, sketches, references, PDFs, or photos, with editable vector exports.
What is Fig0?
Fig0 is an AI scientific figure generator that turns any input—text prompts, rough sketches, reference images, PDFs, or existing figures—into a structured, journal-grade draft. The platform runs in a web browser and offers an infinite canvas for further editing. Trusted by over 150,000 scientists from institutions including Stanford, MIT, Oxford, and ETH Zurich, Fig0 produces outputs in SVG, PPTX, PDF, PNG, and TIFF (300/600 DPI).
Key Features
- Text-to-Figure — Describe a mechanism, pathway, or experimental setup to generate a structured scientific figure with publication-aware styling.
- Sketch and Reference Inputs — Turn rough drawings, screenshots, or visual references into cleaner diagrams while preserving your intended layout.
- Canvas-Based Refinement — Edit labels, regions, composition, and detail on an infinite canvas without switching between tools.
- Editable Vector Delivery — Export layered SVG, editable PPTX, and vectorized PDF for team or journal-side edits.
- High-Resolution Output — Generate HD assets and export PNG or 300/600 DPI TIFF for manuscript submission and print.
- Scientific Revision Loop — Handle reviewer changes, label updates, and background cleanup without rebuilding from scratch.
Who is it for?
- Researchers preparing journal manuscripts — Use text or sketches to generate a first draft, then refine labels and layout in the canvas before exporting as SVG or TIFF for submission.
- Lab groups that need collaborative figures — Export in editable PPTX or layered SVG so multiple team members can adjust colors, annotations, or composition after the AI generation.
- Educators creating posters and presentations — Turn conceptual diagrams into clean visuals and export as PDF or high-DPI PNG for talks, posters, or teaching materials.
What can you do with Fig0?
- Generate a figure from a rough idea: Describe a signaling pathway or experimental setup in text, and Fig0 produces a publication-ready draft in seconds.
- Refine without restarting: After generation, adjust every text label, swap regions, or clean up backgrounds using the infinite canvas—all edits remain non-destructive.
- Export for any downstream tool: Download figures as SVG for Adobe Illustrator, PPTX for PowerPoint, or TIFF for direct manuscript submission.
How does Fig0 work?
- Generate — Choose an input mode (text, sketch, reference, PDF, or photo) and describe your figure. Fig0 produces a publication-aware first draft.
- Enhance — Use the infinite canvas to edit labels, refine regions, upscale, or clean backgrounds. Every element remains editable.
- Export — Download in vector formats (SVG, PPTX, PDF) or bitmap (PNG, TIFF) at up to 600 DPI for print or submission.
Pricing
Fig0 operates on a freemium model. New users start with free credits; referring friends can earn up to 1,200 additional free credits for both parties.
FAQ
Can I edit the figure after generation?
Yes. Every generated figure remains fully editable in Fig0’s canvas. You can change any text label, adjust composition, refine regions, or clean up backgrounds without redoing the entire figure.
What export formats does Fig0 provide?
Fig0 exports to SVG, editable PPTX, PDF, PNG, and TIFF (300 or 600 DPI). The vector formats preserve layers and text for continued editing in external tools.
