Can I use BioRender for youtube videos or on my social media?

You can use BioRender figures in YouTube videos or on social media (Instagram, LinkedIn, X, Meta, etc.) to explain concepts and share your work.

Guidelines:

  • Free Basic Version: You can use the free Basic version if your videos or social media accounts do not generate personal profit.
  • Industry License Version: If your YouTube channel or social media accounts make money from ads, you must have an Industry License. See our Pricing Page for more information.
  • Citation Requirement: Always credit BioRender when using our figures. Include “Created with BioRender.com” or your unique figure URL. For more details, see our article on Citing BioRender.
