Boltz-1 / Boltz-2 (MIT, open)

Open-source structure models that match AlphaFold 3, with Boltz-2 also predicting how strongly a drug binds.

Boltz-1 (2024) reproduced AF3-level accuracy under MIT licence; Boltz-2 (2025, with Recursion) added binding-affinity prediction approaching physics-based FEP at a fraction of the cost.
