Figwise

Figwise generates journal-ready scientific figures from pasted abstracts or study descriptions. It covers graphical and visual abstracts, conceptual and theoretical frameworks, PRISMA and CONSORT flow diagrams, volcano plots and phylogenetic trees, with SVG and PNG export sized for submission.

Figwise is a web app that turns written research into submission-ready figures. Instead of building diagrams by hand in Illustrator or PowerPoint, you paste an abstract or a short description of your study and the tool drafts a structured vector figure you can review, adjust and export. The output is sized for journal submission, and exports come as SVG vectors or PNG at the resolution your target journal requires. The product is split into focused tools rather than one general canvas. A Graphical Abstract Maker converts an abstract into a draft sized to Elsevier or MDPI presets. A Visual Abstract Maker builds a three-column Methods, Results, Conclusion layout with icons and key numbers. Framework generators classify variables into independent, mediating and moderating roles, or draw a labeled theoretical model with numbered hypothesis arrows. Standards-bound diagrams are handled by exact templates: a PRISMA 2020 flow diagram and a CONSORT 2010 flow diagram, both populated from your own screening or participant counts and editable afterward. Additional tools cover volcano plots for RNA-Seq, proteomics, genomics and single-cell data, plus phylogenetic trees. The workflow is deliberately short. You describe the study, review the structure before committing, change numbers or input text and regenerate if something is off, then download. No canvas editor is involved, which is the main distinction from generic design software: Figwise trades open-ended drawing freedom for speed and format correctness. It suits systematic review authors who need compliant flow diagrams, quantitative researchers who want a clean conceptual model, corresponding authors drafting a graphical abstract, and students producing their first professional framework figure. The site reports use across pharmacology, oncology, public health, psychology, transcriptomics and environmental research, and lists Oxford, Harvard, MIT and Mayo Clinic among the institutions that apply it. The claim is minutes rather than half-days, and the value sits in structure and compliance, not in artistic control.
