Know if your electrolyte will fail - before you synthesize it

Avoid weeks of synthesis and testing on unstable candidates. Provide a SMILES and a target voltage window. Get oxidation and reduction potentials in under 90 seconds - with per-class calibration accurate to 0.003 V for nitriles.

How it works

01

Provide SMILES and target voltage

Specify the electrolyte molecule, target voltage window, and reference electrode (SHE, Li/Li⁺, Ag/AgCl, SCE, or Fc/Fc⁺). The tool auto-detects the molecular class for per-class calibration.

02

Five-step xTB thermodynamic cycle

Neutral optimization, cation, anion, vertical IP, vertical EA - all automated. Per-class SMARTS-detected calibration runs automatically. The response reports which calibration fired.

03

Stability verdict with calibration context

Oxidation and reduction potentials against your chosen reference. Stability flags for four voltage windows (standard Li-ion, high-voltage, solid-state, Na-ion). Clear pass/fail with the calibration class that was applied.

Proof

Ethylene carbonate: oxidation 5.51 V vs Li/Li⁺, reduction 0.67 V - stable in standard and high-voltage windows.

Nitrile class MAE: 0.003 V (26 reference molecules). Sulfone class MAE: 0.019 V. Carbonate oxidation MAE: 0.318 V (useful for screening, flag for characterization).

Per-class SMARTS-detected calibration runs automatically. Five reference electrodes: SHE, Li/Li⁺, Ag/AgCl, SCE, Fc/Fc⁺.

Boundary: water as solute not supported (ALPB self-solvation artifacts). For organic electrolytes, production-ready.
