What is BioRender?
BioRender helps researchers create publication-ready scientific illustrations, graphs and posters from a large library of science icons and templates. Its AI assistant, Leo, plans and builds custom figures, protocols, flowcharts and timelines from a prompt.
Scientists drag icons onto a canvas or start from expert-made templates, and can create 3D models from the Protein Data Bank. Graphing tools add analysis guidance with pre-tests and outlier detection, and figures export in high resolution or as editable images for PowerPoint.
AI-generated figures follow BioRender's style so they match hand-built work. Lab and Institution plans add shared folders, review and commenting, SSO and custom branding, and the free plan allows three figures without commercial or publication use.
