Identify with confidence
across every workflow

MoleculeID adapts to your research context. Whether you're profiling unknowns or verifying knowns, the dual-gate algorithm delivers the same MSI Level 1a certainty.

Targeted Matching

Confirm what
you expect to find

You have a list of compounds. You need to know which ones are in your sample — with evidence strong enough to put in a methods section. Upload your ESI+ and ESI− files. MoleculeID cross-validates against your target list using all three gates simultaneously.

  • Binary pass/fail per compound — no ambiguous scores
  • Adduct profile stored for every passing hit
  • Cross-file RT gate confirms co-elution
  • Colour-coded Excel output, publication-ready

The Algorithm

Three gates.
One truth.

Every competitor uses mass accuracy alone, or at best a predicted retention time that acts as a soft filter. MoleculeID requires RT agreement as a hard binary pass/fail gate, simultaneously with mass accuracy, on both ESI+ and ESI− modes.

The probability that two different compounds share the same nominal mass AND elute at the same retention time AND ionize in both modes is vanishingly small. This is what makes false positives effectively impossible.

The Platform

MoleculeID — identify with authority

Upload your LC-MS data. Get compound identifications backed by dual-gate mass and retention time evidence from 50,000 physically verified reference standards.

⚗️
Authentic reference standards
Every compound was physically characterized on real instrumentation — not predicted, not in silico. Real measurements from real samples.
🔬
Dual ESI+/ESI− upload
Upload positive and negative mode files together. Cross-file RT gate applied server-side — the same algorithm as the desktop processor.
📊
Approach B all-adduct reporting
Every adduct passing the ±9 mDa gate stored separately. No evidence discarded. Full adduct profile available for Premium subscribers.
🔒
Zero data retention
Your MGF files are processed in memory and immediately deleted. We retain only a usage receipt. Nothing analytical ever persists on our servers.
Streaming results
Matches stream to your browser as they're found. No waiting — compounds appear progressively with a live five-phase pipeline timeline.
📥
Excel export
Download colour-coded annotated results in the format your team already uses. Compatible with every major metabolomics workflow.

The Company

Built by scientists,
for scientists.

VeroMass was founded by a team with deep roots in plant metabolomics, mass spectrometry, and scientific software. We built MoleculeID because the tools we needed didn't exist.
