Mind the Graph is an online tool for scientific figures, graphical abstracts, posters and infographics. Its core is a library of more than 75,000 scientifically accurate illustrations across more than 80 fields. A free plan lets you try it, and paid plans start at $99 a year.
Who is Mind the Graph for?
Mind the Graph is made for researchers, educators and science communicators. In marketing, it fits life science, biotech, medtech and healthcare companies that need accurate scientific illustrations in their infographics, posters and slides. For general business infographics, a general design tool such as Canva is a closer match. The website lists Cactus Communications as its copyright holder.
What are Mind the Graph's main features?
Scientific illustrations
The library holds more than 75,000 illustrations in fields such as medical science, biology and microbiology. Mind the Graph says they are made by experts and are fully customizable.
Templates and formats
About 300 templates cover graphical abstracts, infographics, posters and slide presentations. The free plan has limited template use; paid plans include them all.
Custom illustrations and design help
If an illustration is missing, paid users can request a custom one at no extra cost. The plan for labs and institutions adds custom templates for your organization and tips and support from Mind the Graph's design team.
AI and research tools
AI image generation is limited on the free plan and unlimited on paid plans. The Prime plan adds an academic writing assistant, literature search across more than 250 million papers and a journal finder, which matter more to researchers than to marketers.
