Why it matters

It takes years and billions of dollars to bring life saving drugs to market.

Significant time is spend during drug discovery on designing and making thousands of molecules to find an active lead. There needs to be a faster and cheaper way to develop drugs.

How it works

Optimising drug discovery process using AI

Pending AI has developed complementary AI-driven solutions to optimise drug discovery and development pipelines, namely with regards to de novo drug design, structure based drug design, high throughput chemistry and synthesis planning. These AI-based solutions are employed to augment the cognitive abilities of individual scientists and teams to enable them to make more informed decisions in drug design.

The WOW factor

The Wow Factor

Pending AI’s models are trained across massive federated datasets that contain millions of data points across many disciplines including 138 million compounds, 21 million reactions and 146 thousand proteins. This expansive data has enabled them to develop a generative drug designer and retrosynthesis engine that extensively accelerates the drug discovery process.
