Bella

Discovery in minutes, not months.

Bella screens thousands of materials and protein candidates, filters through foam mechanics in microseconds, and delivers a confirmed shortlist. Bob finds the candidates. Foam mechanics eliminates 99%. The rest get simulated.

What Bella does

Materials pipeline

Discover, screen, confirm. One command.

Protein screening

53,349 candidates across 995 disease targets. 6.2 minutes.

Generative mode

No database match? Bella generates candidates from scratch.

16 simulation domains

Nitrogen fixation to fusion plasma. One flag to switch.

Mathematics

Riemann zeros to 10^8. Collatz. Custom PDE/ODE solver.

Technosignature pipeline

6,787 stellar candidates from 28.9M Breakthrough Listen hits.

Bob

Supports GNoME (554,000 structures), Materials Project, NIST simultaneously, you can plug in any database, Bob handles the rest.

NSMace

Bella uses NSMace for force evaluation. No separate install.

C++ MACE force field engine. No Python, no PyTorch, no GPU. Runs energy and force calculations on any CPU. Scales linearly with atom count.

System size NSMace Python MACE (CPU)
5 atoms 39.8 ms 400.9 ms
100 atoms 143.6 ms timeout (>5 min)

Final shortlist

Foam mechanics filters ~99% of candidates before any quantum calculation runs. What used to require months on GPU clusters takes under an hour on a laptop.
