MolCart Giga-Search

MolCart Giga-Search enables you to perform substructure and fingerprint search of BILLIONS of chemicals in seconds. For example you can search large giga-seized libraries such as Enamine REAL and the ZINC database very efficiently.


AI and ML Screening Models

MolScreen

MolScreen is a set of high quality 2D and 3D AI/ML models for a broad range of pharmacology and toxicology targets. The models can be used for lead discovery or counter screening.


ICM-Browser Molecular Graphics

ICM-Browser

Free Download Software for browsing molecules and making fully-interactive 3D molecule documents for embedding in PowerPoint and the Web using ActiveICM.

ICM-Browser-Pro

A high quality visualizer and annotator for three dimensional molecular structures, sequences and alignments, chemical spreadsheets and biological data.

Active ICM and ICM Java Script

Icm Java Script (ICMJs) is a JavaScript/HTML5 3D molecular viewer which does not require any plug-in or browser extension and runs inside any modern browser. IcmJS brings desktop quality graphics to the web applications.

iMolView

iMolview is an app for the iPhone/iPad and Android that lets you browse protein, DNA, and drug molecules in 3D. The app has a direct link to the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and DrugBank and has a fast and easy to use interface.

Licensing

There are two types of licenses:

  1. Floating The license is placed on a server and any machine connected to that server can check out the license
  2. Node Locked The license is placed on a single machine and use is limit ed to that machine.

NOTE: The price is the same for Floating or Node Locked licenses. Generally the Floating license is more popular because it gives the user alot more flexibility with the use of ICM. Floating cluster licenses protect against hardware failure s and replacements.

Cluster and Cloud Licenses For high throughput structure- or ligand based- virtual screening and molecular modeling it usually efficient to run the screen on a server or cloud. Pricing depends on the number of CPUs (structure-based vls / modeling) or GPUs (ligand-based screening, RIDGE, GIGA Screen - see below) you wish to use for the modeling. Pricing for a cluster license can be obtained on request.

Unlock Enhanced Modeling Performance with GPU Licensing in ICM

At Molsoft, we understand the importance of optimizing your workflow by harnessing the power of GPUs for specific tools. Regular ICM licenses run on CPUs but our GPU licensing offers a range of specialized license keys tailored to your needs:

Molecular Dynamics: With your regular ICM-Pro license, you can effortlessly utilize Molecular Dynamics on any available GPU(s) within your computer, unlocking exceptional performance for your simulations. No specific GPU license is required for MD, making it even easier to dive into the world of GPU-accelerated simulations.

RIDE: While RIDE naturally runs on CPU, our exclusive RIDE-GPU license empowers you to accelerate ligand-based screening processes and fully exploit the potential of GPUs. Experience the speed and efficiency gains as you screen millions of chemicals/sec.

RIDGE: RIDGE is designed to fully harness the capabilities of GPUs for structure-based virtual screening. To access its cutting-edge features, acquire a separate RIDGE GPU license key and increase your screening capability more than 100 fold.

GINGER: GINGER (Graph Internal-coordinate Neural-network conformer Generator with Energy Refinement) is Molsoft's new cutting-edge software designed for lightning-fast high quality conformer library generation on GPUs.

Note: At present, GPU usage is available to users operating on the Windows or Linux platforms.
