Upload a PDF paper. Our AI scientific poster maker structures the IMRaD story, adds research visuals, and helps you ship a conference-ready research poster without wrestling with PowerPoint.
Poster Maker
Upload a PDF paper and get a print-ready conference poster.

Upload a PDF paper
Start from the material the generator supports today: a PDF research paper with figures, captions, and key findings included.

AI structures the IMRaD story
Our AI condenses long sections into poster-ready bullets while keeping the researcher in control of claims, numbers, and citations.

Choose a conference poster layout
Draft horizontal, vertical, and field-specific layouts for common poster formats such as 48x36 inches, 36x48 inches, A0, and A1.

Generate scientific illustrations
Create graphical abstracts, pathway diagrams, architecture figures, method workflows, and mechanism visuals without leaving the poster workflow.

Export for print and last-minute edits
Prepare a print-ready PDF and keep an editable version for the inevitable PI comments before the upload deadline.
AI conference poster maker
Turn an accepted PDF paper into a conference poster with title, authors, methods, results, visuals, conclusions, and references arranged for quick scanning.

Scientific posters made for researchers
Why our scientific poster maker fits academic work
Poster making is usually low-frequency but high-pressure. The workflow reduces the repetitive layout work while keeping the researcher in control of the final science.
No PowerPoint wrestling
Avoid spending the final week resizing boxes, aligning figures, and rebuilding a layout from scratch.
Conference-ready structure
Start from research poster sections and common conference sizes instead of generic marketing templates.
AI you can review
Keep every block editable so you can check claims, citations, figure captions, and numbers before exporting.
Editable export path
Prepare print-ready output while preserving a version that can still be adjusted after PI or coauthor feedback.
Visuals and layout together
Generate scientific diagrams and poster graphics in the same product instead of stitching together multiple tools.
Scientific poster from a PDF paper
Upload a PDF paper instead of starting from a blank PowerPoint slide.
IMRaD poster generator workflow
Turn introduction, methods, results, and discussion into poster-sized sections that are easier to scan.
Conference poster maker for researchers
Build layouts for PhD posters, medical case reports, lab symposiums, and research conferences.
