Roadmap

What we're building, in honest order

Our north star: a LAMMPS user goes from signup to downloaded outputs in under 10 minutes, and comes back weekly without fighting infrastructure. Here's the plan, updated as priorities change.

Shipped

  • Cloudflare re-platform

    Shipped

    Workers, D1, R2, Queues, Pages — serverless by default.

  • Accounts & auth

    Shipped

    Email/password signup and login with JWT sessions.

  • Projects, files & jobs UI

    Shipped

    The core project → edit → run → download loop.

  • Free tier + starter CPU-hours

    Shipped

    Email verification unlocks a small seed of compute.

  • Stripe billing (Basic & Pro)

    Shipped

    Monthly/yearly plans and CPU-hour credits.

Building next

  • Production LAMMPS runner

    In progress

    A real LAMMPS container image so every job runs genuine LAMMPS, not a local mock. The gate that lets us honestly say 'production.'

  • First-job tutorial

    Planned

    A canonical 'first job in 10 minutes' guide, linked from the marketing site and app empty states.

  • Output previews

    Planned

    Inline preview for common output file types — logs, images, and movies right in the job view.

  • Multi-file projects

    Planned

    Polish for workflows that span data files, force fields, and include files.

  • Job observability

    Planned

    A founder dashboard for job-failure reasons — so we fix the platform before you have to.

Later

  • Restart-file workflows

    Pick up a job from a checkpoint instead of starting over.

  • Course & lab packaging

    Instructor guides and isolated short jobs for teaching MD.

  • Team & org accounts

    Pooled credits and shared projects for labs and small teams.

  • Collaboration

    Read-only project sharing with collaborators.

What we're deliberately not building (yet)

  • National-lab scale (10,000-core) production HPC parity
  • Non-LAMMPS engines (GROMACS, OpenMM) in the near term
  • On-prem / FedRAMP enterprise install
  • A click-and-drag GUI that hides LAMMPS input language

Being specific about scope is a feature. If your workflow needs something on this list, tell us.
