Run ORCA on your computer

This web app can generate ORCA input and job scripts, but it cannot run ORCA in the browser. To submit and run calculations locally, download the full AutoChemy desktop software.

  • Configure machine profiles and generate job scripts here
  • Download the script and input from the preview panel
  • Run ORCA on your PC or cluster with the desktop app

xTB Quick Preview

⚠ xTB is a semiempirical tight-binding method. Use it for quick screening / geometry pre-check before full DFT.

xTB developed by Prof. Stefan Grimme and coworkers.

Geometry

Paste or load XYZ, ORCA * xyz … *, ORCA .out coordinates, Gaussian .gjf, or plain atom lines. Formats are auto-normalized on paste.

Structure

Potential Energy Plot Maker

Opening PES Plot asks Auto vs Manual. Auto: load ORCA .out files here, then Generate Plot. Manual: type energies in the editor.

Potential Energy Surface

When you open PES Plot in the sidebar, choose Auto plot (ORCA .out energies) or Manual plot (type levels). Auto workflow: add files, Recompute, then Generate Plot for the full plot window with style, colours, and export.

3D Visualizer

Paste or load an XYZ structure and explore it interactively.
