    • Compound generation
      Chemical space is vast. Give yourself the best chance of success, using a range of methods to rigorously explore many ideas and optimisation strategies.
    • Compound optimisation
      From your initial compounds you want to improve physicochemical and ADME properties, whilst also ensuring good target activity and selectivity.
    • 3D molecular design and visualisation
      Understand structure-activity and structure-property relationships in 3D, with cutting-edge computational modelling.
    • AI data analysis
      Reveal transformative insights with AI-guided discovery
    • Data analysis and SAR
      In discovery, whether your starting point is a compound structure, target or data on literature or proprietary compounds, the first step is to make sense of the information you already have.
