# Start a RevTaut run

> Every tautomer of one molecule, zwitterions included, ranked by free energy and population after a conformer search and refinement.

Starts a run and returns it with status `queued`; poll GET /v1/runs/{runId} until it finishes. Runs spend credits.

**Limits:** `maxHeavyAtoms`: 60, `maxRefined`: 50, `maxSmilesLength`: 2000, `minCharge`: -10, `maxCharge`: 10.

How the engine works and how to read its results: [RevTaut documentation](/docs/revtaut).

**Scope:** `runs:write`.
