Welcome to CrystalMaker Software: creators of elegant, powerful software for crystalline structures. Our focus is in using interactive graphics to empower users with a vivid visual understanding of structure and properties: to "see the wood for the trees". Our award-winning software is now used in over 50 countries across the globe.
Instead of building a gargantuan - and expensive - "Jack-of-all-trades" program, we've focused on producing the best, Master tools, for different areas:
CrystalMaker (building, visualizing, measuring, animating chemical structures)
CrystalDiffract (x-ray & neutron powder diffraction)
SingleCrystal (single-crystal diffraction, via x-ray, neutron & TEM diffraction)
You choose which product(s) and which platform(s) you need - or take advantage of our unique site licensing...
Whereas other "visualization" programs are designed for small, single molecules — or fixated on old-world crystallography — CrystalMaker is a breath of fresh air! Powerful crystallographic tools, without the pain; an elegant, interactive interface; an easier, more efficient way to work.
CrystalMaker provides spectacular high-resolution photo-realistic graphics, including 3D stereo in color: an ideal way of sharing 3D visualization with your colleagues and students, in seminars, lecture theatres and teaching labs!
CrystalMaker's seamless drag-and-drop workflow allows multi-structure visualization, animation and video output. And if you need to build new structures, we provide easy data input/editing, with full symmetry support.
CrystalMaker can be extended to simulate x-ray and neutron powder diffraction patterns, using CrystalDiffract. Featuring real-time parameter control, mixture generation and comparison with real data, CrystalDiffract is an ideal way to characterize your diffraction results!
SingleCrystal (Apple Design Award, 2007) lets you simulate x-ray, neutron or TEM diffraction patterns from single crystals - and compare with observed data in the same window. SingleCrystal interfaces with CrystalMaker, so as you rotate a crystal structure in CrystalMaker, its simulated diffraction pattern and stereographic projection rotate in SingleCrystal.
SingleCrystal features easy measurement and auto-indexing tools, high-resolution graphics and powerful data output.
Your time is valuable, so don't waste it with inferior software! Take advantage of our award-winning design, first-class (and free!) technical support - and regular, free incremental updates.

Genuine Mac and Windows Software. We develop real, native software for each patform: genuine Mac and Windows applications highly-tuned to deliver the optimum performance and user experience for each platform (and not lowest-common-denominator cross-platform "ports"!). We fully support the latest operating systems, including OS X "Mountain Lion" and Windows 8.
