ChemAI Atlas: getting started

Start without an account

ChemAI Atlas is a directory of AI resources for chemistry and chemical engineering. You can browse resources, tasks, guides and published collections without signing in. An account is needed to submit a resource or report a correction, rather than to read public content.

Start by describing your task: what input do you have, what output do you need, and what constraints matter? For molecular property prediction, for example, record the molecular representation, target property, units and evaluation data before comparing candidates. This is an evaluation approach, not a claim that a listed tool has been tested for your problem.

Find and compare resources

Use the discovery page’s search and available filters for resource type, task, programming language, licence and open-source status. The catalog distinguishes models, agents, MCP servers, skills, APIs, datasets, open-source tools and platforms; these categories are not interchangeable.

On a resource page, read the overview, features, use cases and access or usage information, then follow the official website, repository, documentation or paper links. Check:

Required input format, output meaning and scientific assumptions.
Installation, computing resources, authentication and any hosted-service costs.
Code, model-weight and dataset licences, including commercial-use conditions.
Validation data, reproducibility, limitations and the source’s current maintenance status.

An unanswered question remains an open question. A public repository does not establish a reuse licence, and a guide’s suggested workflow does not establish tested compatibility. Do not upload confidential research or personal data to a third-party tool before reviewing its policies.

Languages, guides and collections

Use the language menu for English, Simplified Chinese or Japanese. Preserve product names, commands, identifiers and source URLs when sharing a resource. Refer to original documentation if a technical translation is unclear.

Guides explain how to approach a task; collections organize a topic’s candidate resources. Read their scope, prerequisites and limitations before adapting a workflow. The editorial policy explains source and review expectations. Availability depends on published content, and inclusion is not certification or endorsement.

Open registration in your preferred language. Use an email address you control and a password of 12–128 characters.
Open the verification email and follow its link. The page still requires you to confirm your email; opening the link alone does not verify it.
After confirmation, sign in. A successful verification does not automatically sign you in.

If no email arrives, check your spam folder, spelling of the address and mailbox rules. Use resend verification if needed; avoid repeated requests in a short period. Account emails follow the language saved when the account was created, so changing a browsing page’s language does not necessarily change email language.

If you already registered, sign in or recover your password rather than creating another account. For privacy, registration and recovery responses do not confirm whether an email already has an account.

Submit a resource or correction

Sign in with a verified account and open Submit a resource. Provide an official HTTPS URL, an optional resource type and a concise note about the task it supports. Explain why the resource is relevant; do not paste an entire README.

For a correction, use the reporting entry on the relevant resource page and provide a source URL and a specific explanation. Keep notes within 2,000 characters and exclude credentials, private research and personal data. Submissions are reviewed, may be marked as duplicates and do not publish automatically. You can review new-resource submissions in your dashboard; repeated submissions are rate-limited.

In account settings you can update your display name and avatar. Under Security, change an existing local password, request an email to set your first local password, link Google when enabled or sign out other sessions.

Google sign-in appears only when enabled; One Tap is separately optional. If the same email already belongs to an account, sign in using that account’s existing method and then link Google in Security. Accounts are not automatically merged by email. Setting a local password does not remove a Google link.

If you forget a local password, use password recovery. Open the email’s reset page and submit a new 12–128-character password. To set a first local password, use the setup email while signed in to the account that requested it. The email states the link’s expiry in UTC. Request a fresh link if it is expired or unusable.

Security notices and support

Account emails cover verification, password reset or setup requests, and notices after a password reset, setup or change. A request email asks you to act; a success notice reports a change that has already happened. If you did not request an action, do not use its link. If an unexpected success notice arrives, visit the site directly, recover or change your password, sign out other sessions where possible and contact support.

Never forward action links or send passwords or API keys to support. Read the privacy notice and terms for data handling and use conditions. For resource, account, privacy or copyright questions, contact the ChemAI Atlas team in Japan at [email protected], in English, Simplified Chinese or Japanese. Include the relevant page and a concise explanation.

Before you start

Define your scientific task and compare candidate resources with their sources.
Confirm licences, data permissions and unresolved requirements.
Verify your email before submitting; share only information you can publish.
Distinguish action requests from completed security changes.
Protect credentials and use professional review for laboratory or industrial decisions.
