Note: Scoring of VCF files with CADD v1.7 is still rather slow if many new variants need to be calculated from scratch (e.g., if many insertion/deletion or multinucleotide subsitutions are included). If possible use the pre-scored whole genome and pre-calculated indel files directly where possible. We are very sorry for the inconvenience.

CADD scores are freely available for all non-commercial applications. If you are planning on using them in a commercial application, please obtain a license. If you have questions, please contact us.

Due to the large file sizes, we highly recommend a download manager or another tool that allows you to continue interrupted downloads (e.g. wget -c). Note that the latest versions also have a separate download option via the install script.
