Explore the academic literature as a visual graph of related papers
Each graph places the seed paper among its most closely related works, clustered by how often papers are cited together or share references.
Separate perspectives show what a paper builds on and what later work builds on it, which is ideal for tracing a research lineage.
Start from a paper title, DOI, URL or proceedings link, so you can enter the graph from whatever you already have at hand.
A ranked list view lets you browse related publications by relevance when you need specifics rather than an overview.
Publication-ready scientific figures from text, sketches, or PDFs
Generate from text descriptions, hand sketches, reference figures, research PDFs, or lab photos.
Labels, arrows, shapes, and colours stay editable, and single regions can be regenerated with a prompt.
Match the visual conventions of Nature, Cell, or IEEE with one-click styles, or keep a consistent set across a paper.
Export SVG and PDF for submissions plus 300 dpi PNG, so figures drop into templates without rework.
Provides broader citation data across millions of papers, but lacks Connected Papers' proprietary graphical relationship view.
