Description

Chat Figures is a specialized AI-powered Chrome extension designed to solve a common headache for researchers, students, and academics: the complexity of compound scientific figures. Often, academic papers contain multi-part images (e.g., Figures 1a, 1b, 1c) saved as a single file. Chat Figures uses advanced AI-driven understanding to automatically detect, separate, and extract these sub-figures with precision. Built for seamless integration into the research workflow, the tool allows users to right-click any image on a website and trigger the separation process instantly. Beyond just cropping, it provides the ability to customize results, download individual sub-figures, and even export labels in JSON format for data analysis or repository archiving. Whether you are preparing a presentation, organizing a literature review, or training a machine learning model on academic data, Chat Figures streamlines the extraction of visual data from the scholarly web.
