Description
Describe a biological process or experiment, and LitFigure creates a scientific figure draft. Make mechanism diagrams, experimental workflows and graphical abstracts. Ask for changes in everyday language, such as "make this arrow red," then compare and save versions. Check the labels and biology before using the figure. Export formats and editing options depend on the document type.

Could you build this?
Partial While an LLM chat UI is simple to create, reliably generating and modifying accurate, publication-ready vector biomedical diagrams requires domain-specific layout engines and precise visual constraint management.
What it would actually take: The architecture needs an LLM planner that parses scientific descriptions into structured diagram DSLs (like Graphviz, Mermaid, or custom SVG/React-flow specifications) backed by a curated library of biomedical icons (BioRender-style assets). Iterative editing requires semantic diffing of SVG nodes and constraints so that modifying one element does not distort existing layout relationships. This requires expertise in scientific visualization, vector graphic compilation, and domain biology.
