Design better microbes with a deeper understanding of nature
Using insights from our knowledge graph of global microbial diversity, we’re unlocking the hidden complexities of microbes to empower rational and informed engineering approaches for strain development.
Let us help you say goodbye to guesswork and unleash the true potential of microbes.

Unprecedented biological context
Microbial diversity mapped for machine learning
We aim for our knowledge graph to map of all microbial life on earth, and all their interactions from a subcellular to environmental level.
Coupled with our graph machine learning algorithms, we can derive surprisingly deep insights from all these levels of proprietary data, so as to predict optimal solutions for your strain engineering challenges.

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.
