Products
VHH discovery platform
Integrated experimental and computational platform to discover single-domain antibody leads using repertoire NGS, ML-based analysis, and high-throughput screening.
Pathogen/tissue-derived antigen VHH bank
Collections of VHHs generated against native cell- and tissue-derived antigens including proteins, glycans, lipids, and their complexes to enable discovery of disease-specific binders.
Preclinical therapeutic candidates (multispecific and CAR-T leads)
Program-stage therapeutic candidates including multispecific single-domain antibody constructs, T-cell engager leads, and CAR-T constructs demonstrated in preclinical studies.

Services
ML- and NGS-driven analysis to identify drug‑able antibody sequences from immune repertoires and prioritize candidates for downstream engineering.
Experimental workflows to isolate antigen-specific B cells, construct VHH libraries, and screen for functional leads—including workflows tailored to CAR-T lead discovery.
Design services for constructing multispecific antibodies and fusion proteins, including epitope geometry analysis and thermodynamics-guided linker design.
Engineering of CAR constructs (including dual-target and conditional activation designs) and development of non-viral approaches with reduced ex vivo culture requirements.
