Variational AI
Why screen when you can create?
Description:
Variational AI is a company that uses generative AI to discover novel drug-like small molecules with optimized properties for defined targets. Their platform, Enki™, is the first commercially accessible foundation model for small molecules. It is designed to make generating novel molecule structures easy, with no data required. Users simply define their target product profile (TPP) and Enki does the rest. Enki is an ensemble of generative algorithms trained on decades worth of experimental data with proven results. The company was founded in September 2019 and is based in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
