Scaffold Analyzer
Inventory Bemis–Murcko scaffolds, frequencies, and one representative per scaffold from a SMILES library
Hardware and price
Price per run
What a typical run reserves from your wallet: the catalog's expected runtime on each piece of hardware × your plan's per-second rate. Larger inputs reserve more, and you're charged only for the seconds the job actually runs.
| Hardware | Typical runtime | Basic | Starter | Pro | Enterprise |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CPUDefault | 5 min | $0.042 | $0.024 | $0.015 | $0.009 |
In workflows
Chain it with other steps.
Each input and output has a data kind, so the builder only connects steps that fit.
Inputs
- Molecules (list)SMILES
- Table (list) · optionalCSV, JSON
Outputs
- ArchiveZIP
- MoleculesSMILES
- TableCSV

Run via API
Submit it from your own code.
Use an API key from your account. The estimate uses your plan's rates; submitting reserves that amount from your wallet.
# Estimate the reservation for your plan (payload fields: see the API reference)
curl -X POST https://api.cognichem.com/api/v1/jobs/estimate \
-H "X-Api-Key: $COGNICHEM_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"job_type": "scaffold-analyze", "resource": "cpu", "payload": {}}'
# Submit (retrying with the same Idempotency-Key never submits twice)
