Pick the tool by the file you already have. A written mechanism, a rough sketch, and an existing figure are three different jobs. No tool on this list is best for every paper.
| ツール | テキスト | スケッチ | 既存の画像 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LitFigure | Yes | Upload a PNG or JPG | Revise the current figure in plain language, or upload an existing image |
| SciDraw AI | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| BioRender | Their site also offers AI generation | Not listed as its own mode | Canvas editing of library assets |
| FigureLabs | Yes | Not listed as its own mode | Vectorization and a canvas are described on their site |
| Mind the Graph | Templates, with AI features also listed | Not listed as its own mode | Drag-and-drop editing |
| Inkscape | No text-to-figure generator | You trace it by hand | Full manual vector edit |
向いている場合：Biomedical mechanism figures, graphical abstracts and workflows when you can describe the science and then review every label.
向いている場合：A public workbench that separates text-to-figure, sketch-to-image and edit-an-image, plus chart tools described on their site.
向いている場合：Researchers who want to assemble a figure from a scientific icon library and keep manual control of each object.
向いている場合：Comparing more than one image model, then taking the result into another design tool.
向いている場合：Template-first figures when you want to place scientific assets yourself.
向いている場合：Free manual vector editing when you will draw or trace the figure yourself.
Text to figure starts from a description. Sketch to figure redraws an uploaded rough layout. Edit an image changes an existing figure and is supposed to leave the rest alone. Test the same study in the mode that matches the file you have.
No. LitFigure is first because this site publishes the list and because the order follows text, sketch, then image edit. A poster that only needs icons may be faster in BioRender or Inkscape.
No. Check labels, arrows, the journal’s AI policy, the license, and the exported file’s size and format. The author remains responsible for the figure.
LitFigure is our product, so this page has a commercial interest in how LitFigure is described. Other rows summarize public pages. Nobody paid for a slot, and this is not a matched hands-on test of every paid plan. Prices and licenses change; open the official page before you buy or submit.
