Чем занимается Ångström AI

Angstrom AI builds GenAI-based molecular simulations to substitute wet lab experiments in the pre-clinical drug development pipeline. We are a team of 2 PhD's and 2 Professors from the University of Cambridge who decided to start a company together after we realised how to combine breakthoughs in our research in quantum-accurate models of physics and generative AI models. Our Biotech/Pharma clients can verify the efficacy and safety of new drug candidates using our computer simulations, which match the accuracy of wet lab experiments, but are over 100x faster. We achieve this accuracy by constraining our genAI-based simulations to obey the laws of physics, avoiding the hallucinations seen in other GenAI technologies. Since joining YC, Angstrom AI has developed the first physically accurate gen-AI based simulation of multiple molecules interacting. We have published the first molecule water solubility results with accuracy within the error range of wet lab experiments. We have also kicked-off a 150K pilot project with a pharma company to apply our tech to estimating solubility in their drug development pipeline.

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Gen AI molecular simulations that reproduce wetlab results

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build generative AI-based molecular simulations that reproduce wet lab results in pre-clinical drug discovery. Our product lets biotech and pharma companies simulate molecular interactions accurately while obeying physics, cutting down experimental time by over 100x. We aim to replace slow, costly wet lab tests with fast, reliable computer models.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We currently live in San Francisco, CA, and the company will remain based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is a hub for biotech startups and AI talent where we already have access to early customers and partners. We want to stay here to remain close to the network and resources we rely on.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Это реальная заявка Ångström AI в YC?

Нет. Y Combinator держит поданные заявки в приватности. Это реконструкция: реальные вопросы формы YC, ответы на которые основаны на публичных данных Ångström AI (заметки о запуске, бэкграунд фаундеров, описание продукта). Это показывает, как компания вроде Ångström AI представила бы себя YC, а не текст, который они подали.
