About Preferred Computational Chemistry
Preferred Computational Chemistry, Inc. (PFCC) was established in June 2021 in Tokyo as a joint venture between Preferred Networks, Inc. (PFN) and ENEOS Corporation (ENEOS) for sales of Matlantis™, a cloud-based universal atomistic simulator jointly developed by PFN and ENEOS for high-speed materials discovery and development. The incorporation of a Machine Learning Interatomic Potential (MLIP) model into traditional atomic simulators has boosted computational speeds tens of thousands of times, making it applicable across a broad array of materials.
Currently, Matlantis is utilized by over *100 companies, universities, and research institutions, in Japan and globally. Since beginning its international expansion in 2023, Matlantis has also been adopted by leading organizations such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA) and Hyundai Motor Company (South Korea).
