AI research figure agent for academic visuals

An AI research figure agent should do more than draw an image. PaperVizAgent supports PaperBanana by reading source context, planning figure structure, applying academic layout rules, and preparing a draft that researchers can inspect, revise, and export.

Direct answer

PaperVizAgent is built around inspectable figure planning, not one-shot image generation.

What an AI research figure agent should handle

The agent should connect the source material to the visual output. That includes extracting key entities, choosing diagram structure, organizing labels, respecting chart data, and producing a draft that can be reviewed by humans.
