Software and calculation title
Select the program for which the input file should be generated.
Job Type
Choose the principal calculation to perform.
Electronic-Structure Method
Select the method family. Additional controls appear automatically where required.
General Method Options
Basis Set
Choose a commonly used basis set or enter a custom software-specific basis keyword.
Solvation
Leave this disabled for a gas-phase calculation.
Computational Resources
These options only generate resource directives. They do not allocate resources on your computer or HPC system.
Molecular Coordinates
Paste Cartesian XYZ coordinates in Ångström. Standard XYZ files containing an atom count and comment line are also accepted.
Molecular Structure
Draw a molecular structure using atoms, bonds, rings, and the periodic table, or continue by entering Cartesian coordinates manually.
Generated Input
Copy the text directly, similar to a code block, or download the generated input file.
Your generated Gaussian or ORCA input file will appear here.
Official Documentation
Advanced calculations can require additional method-specific keywords. Check the official documentation before running production calculations.
Future Software Support
The generator is designed for Gaussian and Orca quantum-chemistry packages at the moment but others will be incorporated in future versions.
Users must independently verify all keywords, units, molecular charge, spin multiplicity, active spaces, convergence settings, resource requests, and software compatibility before running a calculation.
Use this utility at your own risk. The author accepts no responsibility for failed calculations, incorrect results, loss of data, wasted computational resources, financial loss, research outcomes, or any other loss or damage arising from the use of generated input files.
