Turning today’s chemists

into tomorrow’s heroes

We stand on the shoulders of giants with the knowledge that every world-changing discovery started as someone’s impossible idea. We build technology that understands how chemists work,
so they can invent new materials for a better world.

~ c. 300

Zosimos of Panopolis

Writes early alchemy treatises on distillation and salts, moving from mystical tradition toward recorded experimental methods.

~ c. 1250

Albertus Magnus

Isolates arsenic and describes acids, bridging alchemy and natural philosophy as experimental chemical discovery begins in medieval Europe.

1661

Robert Boyle

Publishes The Sceptical Chymist, arguing for experimental evidence over theory and establishing chemistry as an empirical science.

1789

Antoine Lavoisier

Establishes conservation of mass and precise measurement in his treatise, transforming chemistry into a quantitative science with modern laws.

1808

John Dalton

Formalizes atomic theory, proving atoms combine in fixed ratios and laying groundwork for stoichiometry and quantitative chemical modeling.

1869

Dmitri Mendeleev

Creates the Periodic Table, organizing elements by properties and predicting new ones through pattern recognition in chemistry's first data model.

1905

Albert Einstein

Explains the photoelectric effect with light quanta, laying the foundation for quantum mechanics and spectroscopy essential to chemical bonding.

1912

Bragg & Bragg

Develop X-ray crystallography for direct visualization of atomic structure, turning diffraction patterns into interpretable structural data.

1927

Heitler and London

Apply quantum mechanics to chemical bonding, birthing quantum chemistry and introducing theoretical modeling precursors to computational chemistry.

1970

John Pople

Develops Gaussian software to calculate molecular properties from first principles, marking the rise of computational and data-driven prediction.

1995

Omar Yaghi

Develops metal-organic frameworks through reticular chemistry, exemplifying modular and data-inspired molecular design in materials chemistry.

2007

Cheminformatics software

Standardizes computational workflows with molecular descriptors and predictive models, bridging chemistry and data science.

2015

Albert

Emerges from a backyard lab to unify fragmented R&D tools and structured chemistry data in the first AI-native chemistry operating system.

2017

Atomwise

Demonstrates that deep learning outperforms traditional methods in predicting molecular binding, marking a landmark in AI-driven chemistry.

2024

Nobel Prize in Chemistry

Awarded to Demis Hassabis, John Jumper, and David Baker for AlphaFold and protein design, reshaping chemistry through AI prediction.


We help chemists change the world

Request a demo

We’ve dedicated our careers to building the tools that can make that change happen. As chemists ourselves, we know what it's
like when software doesn't work the way you do, because we’ve been there, stuck with systems built by people who never spent a day at the bench.

Science doesn’t stand still.

Neither do we.

What started as an internal solution became a company now serving thousands of scientists around the world.
