Fig0 is an AI-powered scientific figure platform designed to streamline the creation of publication-ready and editable vector illustrations, aiming for "0 manual" effort. It caters specifically to scientific research, publishing, and education, trusted by over 150,000 scientists from leading educational institutions. The platform accepts a wide range of inputs, including text descriptions, rough sketches, visual references, PDFs, photos, and existing figures. This flexibility allows researchers to transform any initial idea into a polished scientific figure without needing extensive drawing skills. Fig0's workflow is structured around three core stages:
- Generate: Users can convert various inputs into a publication-ready figure draft. The AI understands publication-aware figure styles, producing journal-grade first drafts quickly.
- Enhance: After initial generation, figures remain fully editable. Users can refine every detail, including adjusting labels, precisely modifying regions, cleaning up backgrounds, and upscaling images, all without starting from scratch.
- Vectorize: The platform offers versatile export options crucial for scientific communication. Figures can be exported as layered SVG, editable PPTX, and vectorized PDF, ensuring compatibility with downstream design tools and facilitating team collaboration and journal-side edits. High-resolution PNG and 300/600 DPI TIFF formats are also available for manuscript submission and print workflows.
Key capabilities of Fig0 include:
- Text-to-Figure: Generate structured scientific figures, such as mechanisms, pathways, experimental setups, or conceptual models, directly from textual descriptions.
- Sketch and Reference Inputs: Convert informal drawings, screenshots, or visual references into clean, professional diagrams while maintaining the user's intended layout.
- Canvas-Based Refinement: All editing and polishing occur within an infinite canvas, providing a cohesive environment for arranging and annotating figures.
- Editable Vector Delivery: Ensures that figures remain useful post-export, allowing for continued editing by teams or journals.
- High-Resolution Output: Guarantees that all generated assets meet the stringent quality requirements for scientific publications and presentations.
- Scientific Revision Loop: Facilitates efficient handling of reviewer comments, label updates, and other last-minute adjustments without requiring a complete rebuild of the figure.
Fig0 is optimized for researchers who require figures that can withstand the rigors of revision, diverse export needs, and collaborative workflows, making it an indispensable tool for modern scientific communication.
