Products

AI-based infectivity assay (brightfield ML)

Automated image-analysis assay that uses machine learning on brightfield images to detect viral infection phenotypes rapidly without fluorescent staining.

Adaptive high-content screening toolkit (image analysis service)

Service/toolkit that converts high-content images into phenotypic clusters, time-course analyses, and mechanism-of-action insights using lab-specific AI models and bioinformatics visualizations.

Digital pathology fibrosis quantification and spatial analysis

Quantitative histology solution for detecting fibrosis, single-fiber features, cell phenotyping, tumor detection and spatial phenotyping across whole slides with support for brightfield and multiplex fluorescence.

Automated Viral Infectivity Assay

AVIA is an AI-based assay that uses machine learning and brightfield microscopy to detect phenotypic changes associated with viral infection before they are visible to the human eye, replacing traditional plaque assays and TCID50s.

AVIA Automated Viral Infectivity Assay

AVIA is an AI-based assay that uses machine learning and brightfield microscopy to detect phenotypic changes associated with viral infection prior to visible CPEs without requiring intensive genetic engineering or fluorescent labeling.

AutoHCS

AutoHCS is an adaptable, AI-powered image analysis system designed for cellular or tissue-based high-content screening assays, customizing its analysis to meet specific experimental needs and automatically detecting and scoring phenotypic responses.
