SciDraw AI

SciDraw AI is a web platform for creating scientific illustrations, diagrams, and data charts for papers, presentations, posters, and teaching. Users can describe a figure in text, upload a sketch or reference image, and refine results through multi-round conversation. Outputs can be exported as editable SVG or PPTX for refinement in tools such as Illustrator, Inkscape, Figma, or PowerPoint. The site also offers a data visualization module that creates charts from CSV or Excel data, with 10+ chart types, journal style presets (Nature, Science, Cell, PLOS, ACS), colorblind-safe palettes, and matplotlib/seaborn code export. The page states it offers free sign-up credits, a credit-based pricing system, and a free tier with 10 registration credits and 5 daily credits.
