A reaction product predictor in your chemistry editor

Draw the reactants and a reaction arrow, and Athanor’s Productum I model proposes the product, right on the canvas. It needs a free arbastro account and never uses AI credits.

An illustration of how it looks in the app. The real results are below.

How it does on textbook reactions

14 reactions from undergraduate labs, sent as reactants and reagents. It gave the textbook product as its first answer 12 times. The misses are shown as misses.

The textbook product, as its first answer, at 99% confidence.

Confidence is the model’s own estimate for that answer among the ones it considered, not a measured chance that the reaction works in your flask. Run on November 9, 2026 with Productum I 1.0. Every structure was screened against chemical weapons and controlled-substance lists before it was published.
