ChemEZ 0.1.2 beta (unsigned test build)
Pre-releaseBeta test build. ChemEZ is free and open source, and these installers are not signed by Apple or Microsoft yet. The first time you open it, your computer will warn you. The steps below get past that once.
ChemEZ is a chemistry tutor for your desktop. Ask a question and get an answer with real, checked structure drawings: molecules, reactions, mechanisms with curved arrows, and resonance. It works with your own AI key: sign in with OpenRouter (free models available), or use Google Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic, NVIDIA or Ollama on your own computer.
