PaperBanana: Automating Academic Illustration with AI
Despite rapid advances in autonomous AI scientists, generating publication-ready illustrations remains a labor-intensive bottleneck. PaperBanana is an agentic framework that orchestrates specialized agents—Retriever, Planner, Stylist, Visualizer, and Critic—to transform raw scientific content into publication-quality diagrams and plots.
Reference-Driven Generation
PaperBanana retrieves relevant reference examples to guide style and content, ensuring your diagrams match academic standards.
Multi-Agent Collaboration
Five specialized agents work together: Retriever, Planner, Stylist, Visualizer, and Critic—each handling a critical step in the illustration pipeline.
Iterative Self-Critique
The Critic agent inspects generated images against source content, providing feedback for automatic refinement until publication-ready.
About
I built PaperBanana because generating publication-ready illustrations is a massive, labor-intensive bottleneck in academic writing. Researchers are scientists, not graphic designers, yet they spend countless hours manua
