Decision

What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28

Proceed with caution

Why
Apache-2.0 license and RNA parity with AF3 make it attractive and commercially usable, but it is an explicit preview with known antibody/ligand gaps and a non-trivial GPU footprint — adopt selectively for its strong modalities only.
Next
Stand up OpenFold3-preview via the NVIDIA NIM on H100 for RNA/nucleic-acid use cases where it is strongest; defer antibody-antigen and novel-ligand work until the non-preview model ships.
