BioRender (for scientific figures)

BioRender (for scientific figures)

Scientific figure and illustration platform with templates and scientifically focused visual assets, plus AI-assisted figure creation.

Developer: 

BioRender

Our Take

BioRender is designed for creating clear scientific illustrations, pathway diagrams, experimental schematics, and graphical abstracts from a library of science-focused visual assets. It is particularly useful when a figure needs to explain a biological process or experimental setup more clearly than a generic drawing tool can.

The important limitation is licensing: permission to publish or use figures commercially depends on the account plan and the applicable terms, and attribution or a publication license may be required. Check the current rules before submitting a manuscript, sharing figures publicly, or using them in commercial work; also verify that every icon and arrow accurately represents the science.
