Poster hall overviewWhat scientific illustration do you need?
Scientific illustration is accuracy-first image making: every structure is named, every proportion is defensible, and the composition teaches something. The scientific mode on GLMImage is built around that contract — prompts describe the subject, the view (cross-section, dorsal, sagittal, orbital), and the labels that must appear.
Nine discipline recipes load the right visual conventions automatically: botanical plates, zoological specimens, medical anatomy, natural history, engineering cutaways, cell and molecular biology, earth systems, astronomy, and ecology.
Accuracy-first workflow
Start from a real reference: a textbook figure, a museum plate, or a paper. Name the structures you need labeled, in quotation marks for exact spelling. Generate, compare against the reference, and iterate one element at a time — view first, then labels, then style.
Treat output as a strong draft. AI illustrations accelerate layout and labeling, but publication and clinical use still need expert verification of morphology and terminology.

Frequently asked questions
What it covers
What is scientific illustration?
Scientific illustration is image making where accuracy comes first: structures are named, proportions are correct, and the composition explains something. It is used in textbooks, journals, museum panels, and science communication.
Accuracy & trust
Can AI make accurate scientific illustrations?
AI can produce a structured, labeled draft far faster than manual layout. The scientific mode is tuned for information-rich figures, but generated labels, morphology, and terminology still need expert verification before publication or clinical use.
Using the tool
Can labels render in Chinese and English?
The scientific mode can render labels in both English and Chinese. Put exact wording in quotation marks in the prompt, then verify every rendered label before use.
Workflow, comparison & rights
Can I use the images in published or commercial work?
Review the current terms and any third-party rights that apply to your source material before publishing. For peer-reviewed journals, textbooks, or patient education, treat every AI illustration as a draft: verify structures against an authoritative atlas and have a domain expert sign off before publication. New accounts can try 2 free images before choosing a plan.
