Presto-Kinetics is a dynamic simulation platform for general reaction systems, built on a modular structure that allows you to model kinetics, reactor setups, and parameter estimation workflows without manual coding. While based on ODEs and DAEs, it offers far more than a solver: users define models through reaction step patterns and structured recipes — or extend them through a script engine for advanced tasks.

With its integrated parameter estimation tools, Presto-Kinetics supports rigorous model fitting across multiple experiments, custom outputs, and sensitivity analysis. Project-based modeling enables long-term reuse, traceability, and collaborative development — with the same infrastructure and flexibility found in Predici.

Presto-Kinetics is especially suited for catalysis, gas-phase systems, biokinetics, environmental modeling, and the analysis of complex reaction pathways — including applications in systems biology and biochemical networks. It supports PDEs for tubular and spatial systems, and offers powerful visualization and data export features for simulation and estimation results.

Presto-Kinetics has been applied in a wide range of industrial and academic projects — from catalytic reactor optimization to gas purification, process intensification, hydrogenation reactions, and bioprocess modeling. It provides the tools to explore complex kinetics productively, with accuracy, transparency, and flexibility.
