Why machine learning?

Optimizing chemical processes, reactions, or formulations is often a trial-and-error process guided by expert intuition. But when you’re dealing with many variables and complex goals, it’s easy to head in the wrong direction—wasting valuable time and resources.

Machine learning accelerates this process by revealing complex relationships between variables, predicting outcomes, and guiding you toward the most promising conditions—faster and with fewer experiments.

A platform technology

Our platform is reaction agnostic, meaning we can enter a variety of verticals in the chemical industry and have a large impact in a short amount of time. Whether it's pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, or anything in between, we can help accelerate innovation.

The platform is accessible via internet browser and doesn't require any machine learning knowledge from the user, making it truly easy-to-use.
