Folded.love - A love letter that's also a molecule

by
FoldedHearts translates human connection into biological reality. By mapping names to a deterministic amino acid sequence, we utilize high-speed folding algorithms (ESMFold) to generate a one-of-a-kind 3D 'Love Protein' in seconds. Features: • Instant 3D visualization using 3Dmol.js • Custom 'Heart Linker' for realistic structure • 100% free, no-signup, pure science-romance. Perfect for science nerds, long-distance couples, or anyone who wants a unique digital monument to their bond.

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Anthony. I made this because my partner is a huge nerd and I wanted to make her laugh for Valentine's Day. Folded.love takes two names, turns them into amino acids, and uses the same AI that won a Nobel Prize (ESMFold/AlphaFold logic) to fold them into a 3D protein. It's basically a love letter that's also a molecule. Is it scientifically useful? Probably not. Is it cool? I think so. A few details for the builders here: - The Logic: It maps English characters to the 20-letter amino acid alphabet. - The Linker: I added an amino acid flexible bridge between the names so the structure actually has enough "swing" to fold into something interesting. - The Tech: React, 3Dmol.js for the viewer, and the ESMFold API for the heavy lifting. It’s 100% free—no signups, no "premium" tiers, just pure science-romance. I’d love to hear what you think (or see some of the weird structures your names generate)!
