Biology meets AI to make biomanufacturing predictable.
Bioprocesses falter at every stage
R&D
Bioprocesses fail to achieve commercially meaningful productivity
Scale-up
Bioprocess performance dips at scale
Manufacturing
Bioprocess performance drifts over time
Building flight simulators for bioprocesses
Flight Simulator
The flight simulator learns bioprocess behavior from data using AI-ML while being grounded by rules of metabolism and reactor physics
Wet Lab
Every fermentation run produces raw empirical data that feeds directly into the flight simulator.
Virtual R&D lab
Discovers the best recipe by running thousands of virtual experiments in minutes.
Scale-up Guidance
Discovers operating ranges that maintain performance at scale.
Manufacturing support
Predicts bioprocess outcomes in real-time to aid control of drifting processes.
