Multi-modular integrated AI drug discovery ecosystem

Six AI modules. One drug-discovery decision.

Every candidate scored on six dimensions: binding, selectivity, activity, safety, gene expression, ADMET. Ranked, docked shortlist returned in minutes.

Six AI modules. One integrated decision layer.

01 / Gnosis layer

Gnosis I, Target Binding

Predicts binding affinity across 9 oncology targets. Every top candidate is auto-docked into the 3D pocket of the relevant protein.

9 targets · auto 3D docking · pocket-resolved

02 / Gnosis layer

Gnosis II, Cancer vs Normal Cell Selectivity

Predicts IC50 and activity across cancer and normal cell lines. A cancer-vs-normal selectivity index downranks toxic non-selective compounds automatically.

700+ cancer cell lines · normal-cell selectivity index

03 / Gnosis layer

Gnosis III, Clinical Safety

Nine preclinical toxicity endpoints plus six organ-level clinical AE categories. Safety gates suppress favourable predictions when toxicity flags fire. See it run live on doxorubicin.

9 endpoints · multi-organ panel

04 / Gnosis layer

Gnosis IV, Downstream Omics

Predicts the differentially expressed genes and Hallmark pathways a compound triggers, per cell line, dose, and timepoint. Drives MoA and resistance strategy.

946 landmark genes · 49 Hallmark pathways · 76 cell-line contexts

05 / Gnosis layer

Gnosis V, Drug Behaviour (ADMET)

Twelve ADMET models covering absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity.

12 models · 5-enzyme CYP panel

06 / Gnosis layer

Gnosis Forge, Generation Engine

Every molecule Forge generates is scored in real time by all five Gnosis modules simultaneously. Weak dimensions become correction signals mid-generation. The result: candidates that are not just potent, but carry the right safety profile, metabolic behaviour, and genomic fingerprint from the first round.

50+ candidates per campaign · 142 mechanism categories

02 / the problem

90% of drug candidates fail in clinical trials. Most fail because they're evaluated one dimension at a time.

Clinical failure rates remain near 90% and time-to-patient has barely moved in three decades. Not because AI tools are missing, but because candidates are still evaluated one dimension at a time. Fatal flaws surface after hundreds of millions have been spent.

Vecentra evaluates every dimension at once. Fatal flaws surface on day one, not after $300M in spend.

03 / positioning

Fragmented AI produces fragmented decisions. Vecentra integrates every signal.

Not one algorithm, a multi-modular ecosystem. Six AI modules covering binding, selectivity, activity, safety, gene expression and ADMET, each informing the others and reconciled by a contradiction engine that catches disagreements before a researcher sees them. The same signals steer Gnosis Forge, so new molecules are built potent, selective, safe and metabolically sound from the first round.

One input. One platform. A complete picture.

04 / scope

Two indications, one platform.

GNOSIS is built as a disease-agnostic architecture. Oncology is the lead program, with metastasis as the entry wedge. Parkinson's Disease is the second pillar, a market with almost no equivalent integrated AI platforms.

05 / where vecentra fits

The integration gap is where Vecentra sits.

The AI drug discovery field has produced excellent specialists. Each solves one hard problem well. A team that needs the full picture must assemble five separate tools, five separate contracts, and reconcile the outputs manually.

Vecentra is not competing with Schrödinger on physics-based binding accuracy or with Recursion on imaging scale. Vecentra is the platform that connects every evaluation dimension into one coherent ranking, from a single SMILES input, with selectivity built in, in one workflow.

06 / evidence

Most AI tools show you their wins. We publish the hard half.

A number you cannot trust is worse than no number. Every result below carries the limit that qualifies it, including the compounds we get wrong and the targets where a naive approach fails.

Safety

It caught the liver failures before the clinic

On an external panel of real drugs, it cleared 7 of 8 approved medicines and flagged all 3 later pulled from development for liver injury, the late-stage surprise you most want to catch early.

Binding

Binding ranked on par with physics, in minutes

On public free-energy benchmarks it ranks binding in the same band as the physics methods medicinal chemists trust, minutes per compound, not days, and holds up on blinded targets where naive scoring collapses.

See the benchmarks

Discipline

It tells you when not to trust it

Every prediction carries its uncertainty and flags molecules outside its proven chemistry, so the calls you act on are ones the platform stands behind, and borderline cases go to assay, not into a false positive.

07 / no black box

Every number comes with its reasoning.

Gnosis Lens opens each prediction. It shows the exact part of a molecule that drove a safety or ADMET call, names the structural feature behind it, and flags where the model is uncertain. You check the reasoning against known chemistry, not a score you take on faith.

On-structure attribution

The atoms that drove each call, mapped on the 2D structure.

Named drivers

The functional group behind every liability, verdict-coloured.

Stated uncertainty

Out-of-distribution and low-confidence calls are flagged, not hidden.

Illustrative. Gnosis Lens attributes every live prediction to the structure that drove it, coloured by verdict and checked against known chemistry.

08 / how partners use it

Three ways partners use the ecosystem today.

Evaluate a known compound

Score one of your in-pipeline leads across all six dimensions: binding, selectivity, cytotoxicity, safety, gene expression, ADMET, plus an automatic 3D dock. Use to triage, optimise, or de-risk before screening spend.

Design from scratch

Give Vecentra a target, disease, or mechanism objective. Forge returns 50+ ranked, scored, docked candidates with built-in selectivity constraints, no parent compound or protein structure required.

Profile a competitor or failed asset

Find out why a clinical-stage compound failed, or assess a published competitor structure before committing to your own program. Often the answer is in the selectivity profile.

09 / on the roadmap

The platform is live today. Three things are coming next.

Feature-level steering that pushes generation away from liabilities as it designs. Specialised modules for hard biology beyond oncology. Autonomous discovery agents that close the loop from analysis to candidate without human triggering.

Detail and timelines available under NDA.
