ChemEZ features
- Validated 2D drawings. Generates accurate 2D molecular structures with IUPAC names and formulas.
- Interactive 3D exploration. Allows users to rotate and inspect molecules in 3D and export PNGs.
- Reaction scheme rendering. Shows reactants, products, reagents, and conditions in a readable diagram.
- Mechanism visualization. Displays resonance contributors, lone pairs, formal charges, and curved arrows for electron movement.
- Multiple answer modes. Quick Answer, Explain, and Mechanism modes with adjustable learning level.
- Model flexibility. Connect to NVIDIA, Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, or any compatible endpoint.
- Desktop-only runtime. Runs without separate Python or Node.js installations on Mac, Windows, and Linux.
- Image reader option. Optional image reader can process chemistry images alongside chat.
Replicate features
- One-line model inference. Run any public model with a single line of code in Node, Python or HTTP.
- Fine-tune with your data. Improve existing models by training on your own datasets via the Replicate API.
- Deploy custom models. Package models with Cog to create private, scalable API endpoints.
- Pay-as-you-go pricing. Only pay for compute time or per-output token/image; no upfront fees.
- Hardware selection. Choose CPU or GPU instances (A100, H100, L40S, T4) and scale automatically.
