Ground-state energy, then 10,000 candidates.

One job: compute a molecule's ground-state energy with the Variational Quantum Eigensolver, then virtually screen a compound library for binding to your target. The early-discovery pass that takes a CRO six weeks.

Screen throughput
10k → 4 hrs
6 weeks of CRO bench screening, done in an afternoon.

Run it

Simulate & screen.

Register a molecule, run VQE for its ground-state energy, then screen a library against a target. With a key it hits the live /v1/molecule solver; without one it shows representative VQE output so you can see the result shape.

Molecule · register → simulate-vqe → screenPOST /v1/molecule/:id/simulate-vqe
Representative output runs locally · live VQE needs a key
