On October 7, 2025, SES AI Corporation announced the unveiling of its latest platform, Molecular Universe 1.0 (MU‑1), at The Battery Show – North America. The company described MU‑1 as a comprehensive, end‑to‑end workflow that accelerates battery material discovery from years to tens of minutes, integrating literature research, molecule mapping, formulation search, and cell performance prediction.
MU‑1 introduces three Enterprise subscription tiers, offering deeper access to a one‑million‑molecule public database and a 200‑million‑molecule enterprise database, along with advanced AI features such as Deep Space agentic capability. The company reported that it has already generated revenue this year from two joint‑development customers and is converting several Enterprise customers to paid subscriptions.
The launch of MU‑1 is a strategic milestone that expands SES AI’s revenue mix beyond high‑performance batteries into a high‑margin software and service business. By providing rapid, AI‑driven material discovery, the platform positions SES AI to capture new markets in specialty chemicals, personal care, and oil and gas, while reinforcing its competitive edge in the battery industry.
MU‑1 will become commercially available on Monday, October 20, 2025. Subscribers will be able to purchase the platform on a subscription basis, creating a recurring revenue stream that complements SES AI’s existing battery product sales and supports the company’s asset‑light, AI‑first business model.
