BetaFree access while in Beta

Nebius Scientific AI Platform

Scientific models as a service

Run leading AI models for biology and chemistry without managing GPUs or infrastructure.

Access is free for the duration of the Beta. Requests are reviewed manually; commercial terms may follow later with notice.

Why teams use it

Scientific models, delivered as a service

Valuable models are often locked behind hardware, packaging and operations work. We take that work off your plate so the model is simply there when you need it.

  • Use scientific models through one consistent service

    Structure prediction, protein design, genomics, small-molecule generation, single-cell analysis and imaging models share one access pattern, one key and one billing vocabulary.

  • Move from experiments to larger workloads

    Designed to take you from a handful of requests to campaigns and cohorts, with managed capacity that can grow with your work.

  • No GPUs, no infrastructure operations

    You never source accelerators, provision servers, predict demand, tune autoscaling or babysit servers. You send inputs and get scientific outputs back.

  • Missing a model? Ask us to host it

    If the model you rely on is not listed, tell us. Nebius can add and operate it so your team keeps its focus on the science.

Who it is for

From a first experiment to a full pipeline

Biotech and life-science teams

Fold, dock, design and annotate at the pace of your programme. Onboard new hires with a single key instead of an infrastructure tutorial, and keep sensitive infrastructure decisions out of the critical path.

  • Structure and complex prediction for target assessment
  • Binder and sequence design campaigns
  • Variant calling and regulatory-genomics screens
Request team access

Students and researchers

Use the same models that appear in the papers you read, without a grant for GPUs or a week of environment setup. Ask your AI assistant to run a model through MCP and stay in the flow of your analysis.

  • Protein language-model embeddings for course projects and theses
  • Single-cell integration and annotation for lab datasets
  • Cell segmentation for microscopy experiments

Getting started

Three steps to your first result

  1. Request access

    Tell us who you are and what you want to run. It takes two minutes.

  2. Receive your key by email

    The Nebius team reviews your request personally, agrees the beta participation conditions with you and emails your API key.

  3. Paste your MCP configuration

    Pick your client, click Copy MCP, paste, and start asking your assistant to run models.

Copy MCP in seconds

Choose your client and copy a ready-to-paste configuration. Replace the placeholder with the key you receive by email, and your assistant can call the models as tools.

Beta pricing

$0.00 for every model while in Beta

Each model has a clear billing unit, for example per structure sample or per bounded pose job, so you can see how usage will be measured. During the Beta the price of every unit is $0.00.

Beta information

Free during beta. Participation is reviewed individually; available models and capacity are agreed during onboarding.

Selected participants agree the beta participation conditions before credentials are issued. Beta capacity is shared and bounded, without a production SLA.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I get Beta access?

Fill in the Request Beta access form. The Nebius team reviews every request and replies by email. Access is not automatic, and we may prioritise requests to keep the Beta responsive for everyone.

How do I receive my API key?

After your request is approved, we agree the available models, capacity and beta participation conditions with you. Keys are then created and emailed manually. We never publish keys on this site, and you should never paste a key into a public place.

Is it really free?

Yes, while the service is in Beta every listed model is billed at $0.00. Any future paid offering will have separate pricing and terms, communicated before you choose to participate.

Which models can I use right now?

The Models page polls our live catalog and marks each model as Available now, Preview or Coming soon. Access for your account, available capacity and applicable model licence terms are confirmed during onboarding. If the catalog cannot be reached the page says so instead of guessing.

Are there usage limits?

Beta capacity is shared and bounded. Billing units describe how usage is measured; request limits vary by model. We do not offer an SLA during Beta; if you need committed throughput, tell us in your request and we will discuss options.

What is MCP and why would I use it?

The Model Context Protocol lets AI assistants and coding agents call tools over a standard interface. Our MCP endpoint exposes the scientific models as tools, so you can ask an assistant to fold a sequence or dock a ligand without writing integration code.

Can Nebius host our own model?

Often, yes. Use the Host your model form to tell us about the model, its licence and expected usage. We will review feasibility and come back with a proposal. We do not accept confidential weights or sensitive data through the form itself.

What data should I use during the beta?

We recommend starting with public, synthetic or non-sensitive research data. If your evaluation requires personal data, patient information or confidential datasets, discuss this with us during onboarding before uploading them. Authorised platform operators can access uploaded data and request logs for support and troubleshooting.

Can I rely on model outputs?

The beta supports scientific research and evaluation, including molecular dynamics and drug discovery. Results require independent scientific validation. It is not intended for clinical diagnosis or treatment decisions.
