AI Paper Understanding
AI PAPER UNDERSTANDING

Your Manuscript, Understood by AI

Upload your PDF, DOCX, or paste text directly. Our AI reads your manuscript like a peer reviewer — automatically detecting sections, extracting research objectives, identifying biological entities (genes, proteins, diseases), and mapping experimental methodology. No manual annotation or formatting required.

  • Automatic section detection & parsing
  • Key entity extraction (genes, proteins, diseases)
  • Research objective identification
  • Experimental methodology mapping
INTELLIGENT FIGURE GENERATION

Three Figure Types, AI-Optimized for Your Research

Generate Graphical Abstracts to summarize core findings, Study Design Figures to map experimental cohorts and procedures, and Mechanism Figures to illustrate molecular pathways. Each figure type has a dedicated AI pipeline — from extraction to layout to rendering — optimized for that specific scientific narrative. Choose from Linear Flow, Three-Panel, Radial, or Center Focus layouts with journal-specific color themes.

  • Graphical Abstract, Study Design & Mechanism Figures
  • 4 layout structures with journal-style color themes
  • AI-powered layout planning & visual flow optimization
  • Smart icon, panel & element arrangement
Intelligent Figure Generation
Draw and Style Reference
DRAW & STYLE REFERENCE

Reference-Guided Generation for Visual Consistency

Upload 1–5 reference images with "Draw with Pictures" and the AI preserves icon style, color palette, and composition while generating new figures. Or use "Draw the Same Style" to apply a proven template's illustration language to your research. Ensure every figure in your paper shares a cohesive visual identity — consistent iconography, line weight, and annotation style across all figures.

  • Reference-image-guided style preservation
  • Template library with keyword search & preview
  • Custom output size & background control
  • Consistent visual branding across all figures
FIGURE STUDIO & EXPORT

Professional Editing & Publication-Ready Output

Fine-tune every detail in Figure Studio — a full canvas editor with text, shapes, labels, arrows, and a material library of scientific icons. Use AI-powered editing: describe changes in plain English and the AI regenerates your figure. Cutout, erase, layers, snap-to-align, undo/redo, and version history. Export at 300/600 DPI PNG, editable SVG, or PDF, pre-sized for Nature, Cell, and other top journals.

  • Full canvas editor with shapes, labels, arrows & layers
  • AI natural-language editing with version history
  • Material library of pre-loaded scientific icons
  • Export at 300/600 DPI PNG, SVG & PDF for top journals

How It Works

From manuscript to figure in five steps

No design degree required. No prompt engineering. Just upload and get publication-ready output.

01

Upload Manuscript

Drop your PDF, DOCX, or paste text. We support full papers and individual sections (Abstract, Methods).

02

AI Reads & Understands

Our engine extracts your research goal, biological entities, experimental flow, and key findings.

03

Figure Blueprint Generated

The AI plans your figure — selecting the best layout, panel structure, icons, and visual narrative.

04

Image Rendered

Your graphical abstract is generated as a high-resolution PNG, styled to match top journal aesthetics.

05

Edit & Export

Fine-tune in your editor, then export at publication resolution. Drop it straight into your paper.

Figure Types

Three figure types, one platform

Each designed for a specific publication need. All three types available now with tailored AI pipelines.

Graphical Abstract example

Graphical Abstract

Available

A single continuous visual narrative of your entire study. Results-first, minimal methods — perfect for Nature, Cell, and top journal submissions.

Workflow Diagram example

Study Design Figure

Available

Methodology schematic showing study architecture. Cohorts, procedures, analysis flow — turn your Methods section into a clear visual protocol.

Mechanism Figure example

Mechanism Figure

Available

Molecular interaction diagrams. Proteins, signaling cascades, drug-target relationships — detailed mechanism visualization from your results.

Abstract

We investigated the role of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in breast cancer progression. Using single-cell RNA sequencing of 42 patient samples, we identified a novel TAM subpopulation characterized by high expression of SPP1 and TREM2...

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What file formats can I upload?

PDF, DOCX, and plain text. You can upload a full manuscript or paste just the Abstract or Methods section.

Is my unpublished manuscript safe?

Absolutely. Your PDF never leaves our server — text is extracted locally. Only structured, anonymized text is sent to the AI for analysis. We take researcher privacy seriously.

Which journals do you support figure styles for?

Nature, Cell, and NEJM styles are available. Each template matches the journal's specific aesthetic — color palette, typography, panel layout conventions.

Can I edit the generated figure?

Yes. You can fine-tune text labels, adjust layout, and swap icons. If you have an existing PNG editor, it integrates directly — we pass the generated image straight into your workflow.

What resolution are the exports?

300 DPI and 600 DPI PNG exports, sized for journal submission. SVG export is also available for vector editing.
