Visualize molecular orbitals and electron density easily with Avogadro 2.0.
Volumetric rendering of orbitals, plus van der Waals, solvent-accessible and solvent-excluded surfaces for biomolecular work. See the chemistry, not just the atoms.
Inorganic and organometallic chemists — Avogadro 2.0 is for you...
A new template tool lets you build octahedral, tetrahedral, and other coordination complexes in seconds. Click to add functional groups. Avogadro also detects symmetry and displays symmetry elements on your structure.
Avogadro 2.0's rendering was rebuilt for modern GPUs. Smooth even with tens of thousands of atoms.
Real-time shadows and ambient occlusion give depth and clarity — and a new layer system lets you hide solvent, toggle styles, and focus on what matters.

We’ve developed a distilled multi-time-step (DMTS) strategy that leverages non-conservative (NC) forces. #compchem #machinelearning
No fooling, Avogadro 2.0.0 is finally here!
Rebuilt from the ground up: fast modern rendering, improved stability, and a platform designed for the next generation of molecular, biomolecular, and materials research and education. 🧪 ⚗️
Something big is coming on 1 April – and no, it's not a joke.
