ArgusLab is a molecular modeling, graphics, and drug design program for Windows operating systems. It’s getting a little dated by now, but remains surprisingly popular. To date, there are more than 20,000 downloads. ArgusLab is freely licensed. You don’t need to sign anything. You can use as many copies as you need if you are teaching a class where your students might benefit from using ArgusLab. You are not allowed to redistribute ArgusLab from other websites or sources. However, you may link to this website from your own websites if you like. A low-key effort is currently underway to port ArgusLab to the iPad. In addition, I’ve done some work with the Qt cross-platform development environment in an effort to support Mac, PC, and Linux.

Promethium is a GPU-powered chemistry simulation platform designed to accelerate drug and materials development by enabling faster and more accurate quantum chemistry calculations. Built from the ground up for NVIDIA datacenter GPUs like A100, it employs novel QC Ware streaming algorithms to achieve unprecedented computational speed and high throughput-to-power consumption ratios. It supports density functional theory calculations on systems with up to 2,000 atoms, allowing simulations of large molecular systems that are not feasible with legacy CPU-powered ab initio codes. For instance, a single-point calculation of a 2,056-atom protein can be completed in 14 hours on a single GPU. Promethium offers a range of capabilities, including single-point energy calculations, geometry optimization, conformer search, torsion scan, reaction path optimization, transition state optimization, interaction energy computations, and relaxed potential energy surface scans.
