Binding accuracy vs experiment
We predict protein–ligand binding free energies from first principles, then check them against the lab. Across CDK2, MCL1 and Thrombin the model reaches chemical accuracy, and on the hardest case — CDK2 — our neural-network term lifts the correlation with measured affinities to 0.88. That is the line between a model that ranks molecules and one that tells you which to make next.

Solvation accuracy vs experiment
How a molecule dissolves and partitions underlies everything from formulation to dosing. We compute solvation free energies to chemical accuracy — and partition coefficients to within 0.22 log units — built entirely from quantum mechanics, with zero fitting to experimental data. The model has never seen the answer, and still gets it right.
Energy
Electrolyte and electrode R&D for batteries
Validated internally — data under partner agreement, publication in progress
Battery performance comes down to how ions move through an electrolyte — charged, strongly-interacting chemistry that classical models struggle to capture. Our engine handles exactly these interactions from first principles, the same physics it reproduces against quantum mechanics. We bring it to electrolyte formulation, interphase chemistry and cathode degradation — the building blocks of safer, faster-charging cells.

Validated internally — data under partner agreement, publication in progress
Nature's catalysts: tracking energies along a reaction path in full, explicit solvent. Our engine is built to clear. With the energetics of water and ions settled, we turn the model to catalytic and enzymatic mechanism: how bonds form and break, and how a single mutation reshapes activity.

A first-principles platform extensible across materials problems
Validated internally — data under partner agreement, publication in progress
The physics that governs molecules governs materials. We extend the same first-principles engine to industrial materials and process chemistry — beginning with an ore-enrichment study — as a platform that generalises across problems rather than a model rebuilt for each one.
