CALPHAD Service
Our CALPHAD (Calculation of Phase Diagrams)
service uses Atom credits for each query.
Different databases have specific Atom
requirements.
MatSQ Ni 1.0
3 atoms
per query
MatSQ AL 1.0
1.5 atoms
per query
MatSQ FE 2.0
3 atoms
per query
MatSQ HEA 1.0
1.5 atoms
per query
Each database has a specific atom cost per query
Atoms are deducted from your available Atom credits
No separate payment needed - just use your Atom balance
More complex calculations require more atoms
Access to industry-standard databases
Pay only for what you use with Atom credits
Seamless integration with your Atom credit balance
Subscription Plans
Spot Subscription, Storage Subscription, and Support
Subscription.
Spot Compute

Spot Compute
The Spot Compute subscription provides a "fixed"
number of spot cores.
You can subscribe on a monthly or yearly basis
to access simulation services using Spot
Instances provided by Materials Square.
(By utilizing surplus server capacity, Spot
Instances offer a more affordable pricing
model.)
Tip:
Choose the number of cores and the subscription
period that best suit your needs.

Please note
- SPOT Instances can be interrupted at any time, which may stop your calculation. In such cases, calculations may need to be restarted manually.
- SPOT Compute services do not save logs if the computing is interrupted.
- For critical simulations that require complete logs, consider On-Demand computing instead.
- Prices shown are exclusive of VAT
