AI-powered protein engineering platform to create high-activity proteins for longevity, serving enterprise and consumer markets.

The Tough Tech problem we are solving

Biology offers vast potential to extend human healthspan, but protein engineering remains slow, expensive, and unpredictable. Today, discovering or optimizing a single protein can take years of wet-lab iterations and millions in R&D costs. The core challenge is translating biological complexity into predictable, designable function — a problem that sits at the intersection of molecular biology, computation, and manufacturing scalability.

About our solution

Foundry Biosciences is building an AI-powered protein engineering platform that combines large protein language models with experimental active learning to design, test, and evolve functional biomolecules at unprecedented speed. Our system learns directly from wet-lab feedback, enabling rapid optimization of proteins for stability, potency, and manufacturability.

This technology powers both enterprise and consumer applications — from next-generation therapeutics and longevity factors to consumer products such as bioactive skincare and nutritional formulations that rejuvenate cellular function. By bridging AI and biology, Foundry Biosciences is accelerating the discovery-to-product cycle for a healthier, longer human lifespan.
