Design binders against your target.

Pick Epitope Scout first to identify candidate epitopes and per-dimension feasibility for any target.

Pick the Library Planner when you have a binder design shortlist and need to scope library size, diversification scheme, and screening throughput before ordering DNA.

Pick BindCraft when you have a target PDB plus known hotspot residues and want de novo 60-150 aa protein binders.

Pick PXDesign when AF2 confidence against a defined target matters and you want real ipTM / pLDDT / pAE on every candidate. For hallucination-driven binder design without AF2 filtering use BindCraft, for antibody and nanobody CDRs use RFantibody, and for target structure generation without binder design use BoltzGen.

Pick RFdiffusion when you want general de novo binder design scored by AF2 multimer (ipTM / pLDDT / i_pAE). For antibody and nanobody scaffolds use RFantibody, for AF2-IG initial-guess scoring use PXDesign, and for hallucination-driven binders without AF2 filtering use BindCraft.

Pick RFantibody when you need a VHH (nanobody) scaffold against a target PDB. For de novo non-antibody binders, use BindCraft. For designs involving modified residues or glycans, use BoltzGen.

Pick BoltzGen when you want one model that can design mini-proteins, nanobodies, antibodies, or peptides against the same target, or when your target involves glycans, post-translational modifications, or non-canonical residues.

Pick ProteinMPNN when you already have a backbone and need candidate sequences. For de novo backbone generation, use RFantibody, BindCraft, or BoltzGen first and feed the output PDB here.

Pick AF2 when you need the gold-standard structure prediction with calibrated pLDDT + PAE. For faster single-sequence folds use ESMFold (D4); for affinity-aware folds use Boltz-2 (D6).

Pick Boltz-2 to validate a designed binder against your antigen. Single-sequence cofold + interface confidence (ipTM), antibody-trained and orthogonal to AF2-multimer. For sequence design, use ProteinMPNN; for de novo backbones, use RFantibody, BindCraft, or BoltzGen first.

Pick ColabFold when you need a fast no-MSA fold — 1-2 min per run, no MMseqs2 round-trip. Pair with AF2 standalone (D2) when you want full MSA + templates, or with ESMFold (D4) for single-sequence monomers on an even smaller GPU.

Pick ESMFold when you need the fastest possible monomer fold - no MSA, no multimer, single-sequence ESM-2 language-model prediction. Pair with ColabFold (D3) for multimers or AF2 standalone (D2) for full MSA-backed accuracy.

Pick Developability Scout when you have a sequence and need a quick liability scan (CDR length, hydrophobic patches, charge balance, isoelectric point).
