Accurately modeling biomolecular interactions is a central challenge in modern biology. While recent advances, such as AlphaFold3 and Boltz-1, have substantially improved our ability to predict biomolecular complex structures, these models still fall short in predicting binding affinity, a critical property underlying molecular function and therapeutic efficacy. Here, we present Boltz-2, a new structural biology foundation model that exhibits strong performance for both structure and affinity prediction.
