TECHNOLOGY
How it works
Best-in-class drug discovery execution
Industry-grade methods, orchestrated seamlessly.
Molecular dynamics, FEP, docking, protein folding, ADMET models, and molecule generation—all expertly coordinated at your direction.
No pipelines to wire, no schedulers to manage. Axon executes tools, shows its work, follows your feedback, and delivers results.
State-of-the-art reasoning, harnessed for science
CADD-equipped agents that learn from experience.
Axon plans, executes, and iterates complex workflows on your behalf, improving through successes and failures without ever training on your IP.
Transparent by design, with inspectable traces behind every action.
Designed for enterprise deployments
HPC without friction. Security without compromise.
Axon comes with modern security compliance and white-glove deployments.
Data encryption, enterprise provisioning, auditable logs, and private AI infrastructure (Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry) keep everything under your control.

Rapidly explore chemical space, prioritize high-quality candidates, and iterate with confidence using integrated physics and ML workflows.
Lower operational drag
No infrastructure to wrangle, no specialists required. Axon abstracts complexity so your team stays focused on decisions, not tooling.
Broader team leverage
Every scientist gains access to expert-level computational chemistry capabilities, without waiting on scarce internal resources.
Capital-efficient R&D
Achieve enterprise-grade simulation and screening without building or maintaining expensive HPC and software stacks.
QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
Medicinal chemists, computer-aided drug discovery (CADD) scientists, and anyone involved in advancing drug discovery programs.
ChatGPT and Claude are good for ideation and discussion, not for developing drugs. Axon engages CADD methods like molecular dynamics, free-energy calculations, virtual screening, ADMET modeling, and more to generate the results and reports that move your drug discovery programs forward.
One of Axon's core advantages is that it mediates much of the technical and infrastructural complexity so scientists can access expert-level computational chemistry capabilities without deep computing or tooling expertise. Axon works best as a force multiplier for scientists' domain knowledge, not a replacement for it.
Yes! In enterprise deployments, Axon can be configured to use internal tools in hours rather than weeks. Once integrated, enterprises can opt-in to have Axon continually improve at using the tool, without ever retaining or training on proprietary data or IP.
To improve performance, Axon only needs to understand how well it completed its directives. That means collecting analytics on crashes or errors, evidence of circuitous or futile tasks to be avoided or streamlined, and feedback on the alignment between Axon's decision and the user's intentions. IP-specific details (e.g., the biology, targets, or molecules) are irrelevant to improving Axon's intelligence.
Yes — everything Axon does is permanently logged for auditing and review, so all decisions and results can be traced to their origins. Users can always cancel, interrupt, redirect, or otherwise modify Axon's actions.
Because Axon is delegating and orchestrating to various trusted industry-standard tools, it is far less prone to hallucinating results. Results and conclusions are ultimately derived from the auditable work Axon performs on your behalf. When hallucinations do occasionally occur, they're limited incorrectly guessing command-line arguments, which typically result in self-correcting errors.
Yes, your data is secure. Enterprise deployments run inside your own VPC so your information never passes through public infrastructure. We follow industry-standard security practices, including strong encryption, role-based access controls, and audited compliance processes, to keep your data protected end-to-end.
