What PaperToPoster is
PaperToPoster is a web tool that turns a research paper into an academic poster draft. Users provide paper text or upload a PDF with key figures; uploaded files are limited to 15 MB and 50 pages. Its multi-agent pipeline parses the paper, plans a reading-order layout, places figures and tables, and renders the poster. A panel can be adjusted or a figure swapped using a one-line instruction. Finished posters download as high-resolution PNG or JPG files, while PDF and PPTX export are listed on the roadmap. The product is aimed at academic and scientific posters for coursework, labs, conferences, and defenses. New users receive 10 free credits without a credit card, and a free trial is available. Paid plans start at $13.50 a month: Hobby is 13.50 USD, Basic is 22.50 USD, and Pro is $45 a month. Uploaded PDFs are used for extraction and discarded immediately. PaperClaw lists encrypted storage controls and email support with replies within 24 hours.
