Flavours & Fragrances
Are you seeking to reproduce nature's complexity in your ingredients and products?
Shifting fully to sustainable sources
As consumers and regulators demand higher standards for sustainable sourcing and biogradability of flavour and fragrance molecules, industry must look to naturally-occuring metabolic pathways in all organism to recreate the smells and tastes we all know and love.

Terpene synthases
Terpene synthases
for common fragrances such as limonene and menthol
14x more
Hydroperoxide lyases

We systematically map the planet's genomes, proteins and in situ environmental and chemical conditions so that we can design better performing proteins using advanced deep learning techniques that can only be used on knowledge graphs.
Through our biodiscovery process, we help our partners draw on vastly more natural starting points to design process-ready enzymes that can match the experience of natural ingredients.
Partner with us to develop and license our novel enzymes.

The most comprehensive map of life
Functional prediction like never before
Our knowledge graph has been purpose-built from the ground up to capture and recreate the full complexities of 4 billion years of enzymatic reactions in nature.
Our approach requires no prior mechanistic insight, as our focus is on using contextual data to match enzyme candidates to your desired chemical reaction and process conditions.
IP ownership
Gain freedom to operate with more diverse gene editors from nature
Bespoke solutions
Match the best gene editing components to your target indications
Access to novelty
Rapidly ideate across nucleases, RTs, recombinases, and more

Rooted in Access and Benefit Sharing
Future-proofed data collection
At the heart of our biodiscovery process is a our commitment to Access and Benefit Sharing (ABS). ABS is a cornerstone principle of the Convention on Biological Diversity and its Nagoya Protocol, which seeks to ensure fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from the utilisation of genetic resources.
We're building a robust model for long term biodiversity protection through our global sampling partnerships. Each of our samples is collected in compliance with the Nagoya Protocol and with pre-negotiated permission to commercialise with our industry partners. Our aim is to create a world where industrial innovation protects, supports and revitalises our natural biodiversity.
