# Ariax Bio

> A platform for designing antibodies, miniproteins, and peptides with state-of-the-art protein design methods—without installing software or managing GPU infrastructure. Explore for free and pay only for the GPU compute used by projects you launch.

Ariax Bio gives researchers guided, production-ready access to BindCraft, BoltzGen, PXDesign, and the ESMFold2 pipeline across antibody, miniprotein, and peptide formats. Projects keep inputs, scientific settings, status, structures, scores, and downloads together. There are no subscriptions or platform fees, no shared queues, and no quota requests. GPU availability varies by design method and demand.

## Protein-design methods and formats

- **BindCraft**: de novo miniprotein and peptide binder design. Projects can use Rosetta-based scoring or the open-source FreeBindCraft path.
- **BoltzGen**: all-atom design for VHH antibodies, miniproteins, linear and cyclic peptides, helicons, and miniproteins designed against small-molecule targets.
- **PXDesign**: diffusion-based de novo miniprotein binder design with Protenix and AF2-IG evaluation.
- **ESMFold2 pipeline**: ESMFold2-guided miniprotein, VHH, and scFv design with Protenix v2 validation. Ariax is the only platform offering the complete ESMFold2-pipeline workflow as a hosted service.

Ariax exposes method-specific scientific controls through guided project setup rather than hiding the underlying science. Researchers can prepare a target, configure a campaign, monitor each stage, inspect results, and download project outputs without building their own orchestration layer.

## Turbo Mode

Turbo Mode is available across every Ariax design engine. It runs campaign work across multiple GPUs with 2x, 4x, or 8x parallel execution. The feature originally launched with BindCraft and now supports BindCraft, BoltzGen, PXDesign, and the ESMFold2 pipeline.

## Pricing and access

- Explore the platform without a subscription.
- Pay only when a protein-design project starts using GPU time.
- GPU rates are listed per GPU-hour, with no additional platform fee.
- Start without a shared queue, sales call, or quota approval.
- Launch one project or several campaigns immediately, subject to GPU availability for the selected design method.
- Major-cloud price comparisons are approximate on-demand rates and can change.
- Protein designs and project intellectual property remain the user's.
