OpenEye Scientific Software is an American software company which develops large-scale molecular modelling applications and toolkits.

Scope

Primarily geared towards drug discovery and design, areas of application include structure generation, docking, shape comparison, charge/electrostatics, cheminformatics and visualization. The software is designed for scientific rigor, as well as speed, scalability and platform independence.

OpenEye makes much of its technology available as toolkits suitable for custom development. The toolkits are available in multiple languages: C++, Python, Java and C#.
