ColabFold

https://colabfold.com

Best for

Accessible protein folding

Works on

Web (Google Colab)

Alternatives

AlphaFold, ESMFold

Watch out

Depends on Google Colab's free GPU availability, which can be limited; not suitable for very large proteins without paid Colab.

What It Does

Fast and accessible protein structure prediction that runs AlphaFold and related models through Google Colab notebooks. Makes cutting-edge structural biology available to researchers without dedicated compute infrastructure.
