Marvin gives you
Quick drawing
We know when you are drawing chemical structures, you want to get it done as fast as possible.
Marvin provides a clean UI, a universal search bar, familiar shortcuts and instant conversion from name-to-structure to cut the learning curve and help you draw quickly.
One drawing tool for every need
Stop wasting your energy switching between multiple drawing tools with different UIs.
Marvin is a web-based tool with the feature set to serve as your main chemical sketcher and the flexibility to integrate into any tool like your ELN or registration system at an enterprise-scale.
Maximum compatibility
It can get frustrating to move data from one tool to another.
Marvin easily works with other tools supporting import and export in the most prevalent chemical data formats, and provides a seamless copy-paste experience to Microsoft Office allowing you to edit chemical data in your documents.
Scientific accuracy
Scientific accuracy is table stakes when it comes to chemical drawing.
Marvin includes Chemaxon’s industry-standard chemical intelligence combined with modern UI features to catch errors, provide and track live calculations, reliably handle stereochemistry and more.
Publication-worthy visualization
It gets time-consuming to keep restyling your structures for presentations and publications.
Marvin gives you options to make eye-catching chemical drawings like a built-in coloring tool and various shapes, and allows you to apply preset journal styles with a few clicks.
Unparallelled accessibility
Cheminformatics tools have been lagging behind other industries in accessibility.
Marvin is spearheading the rise of inclusivity in cheminformatics with an expanding list of features like support for screen readers and keyboard navigation.
