FAQ

Is BioRender available for free?

Yes. A permanently free plan is published, not a time-limited trial.

Where is BioRender's vendor based?

Science Suite Inc. (operating as BioRender), based in Canada. For data processing and privacy terms the vendor's own contract governs.

How is BioRender billed?

The detailed AI help lists Academic Individual at USD 5 monthly for 50 credits or USD 48 annually for 600 credits; Industry at USD 25 monthly or USD 240 annually for the same quantities. The pricing overview inconsistently labels USD 5/25 as annual starting prices. This catalog uses the AI help’s explicit invoice amounts. List prices are source USD prices; terms allow billing-location differences. The 14-day trial requires a card and becomes paid unless canceled in time.

Is BioRender still active?

Active scientific editor; fully editable AI figures in beta. Academic and Industry usage rights differ.

How many plans are documented for BioRender?

The catalog documents 25 plans with price, billing period, and included features.

Which use case is BioRender categorized for?

BioRender is listed in the catalog under “Design & Image.”

Where do the details about BioRender come from?

Prices, limits, and product details are documented against the listed official vendor page.

How we compare

We compare free access, paid entry, plan limits, features and the listed official sources. Unsourced figures stay marked as not published.

Only confirmed entries appear in the catalog. Prices, plans and limits come from listed official vendor pages. Missing figures stay marked as not published. Result lists are alphabetical by default and can be switched to Free access first; neither is a quality ranking. The vendor page always wins.
