AI FOR SCIENCE · ON THE RECORD
ChemLex
Runs an automated chemical synthesis service for drugmakers: AI plans and ranks synthesis routes, and a 24/7 robotic synthesis line makes and records the compounds. It sells this as a CRO service rather than running its own pipeline.

- 2026-10-22Warp SciencesRound (unnamed) · $215MA US chemistry contract research organisation that makes the molecules drug-discovery teams order, starting with variations of a lead compound for lead optimisation. Chemists guide the work while the company automates more of it with AI and robotics and trains models on the data its experiments produce. It says it has no drug pipeline of its own.
- 2026-10-06Multiply LabsSeries B · $75MBuilds robotic clusters that run the manual steps of making cell and gene therapies and other biologics, working with the drugmaker's existing equipment; the drugmakers own and operate the robots.
- 2026-09-21Woshi TechnologyRound (unnamed) · over 100M yuan across several rounds in the past yearA structured chemistry database, AI models for synthesis planning and robotic labs from milligram to kilogram scale, used by chemicals, battery and pharma companies.
- 2026-09-16ChemifySeries B extension · Series B extended to £51.9M ($70M) in totalTurns molecule designs into code that robots run (Chemputation) in automated 'Chemifarm' labs, making small molecules for drug and materials partners.
- 2026-09-16Deep MaterialA+ · nearly 100M yuanDesigns metal alloys with its own models and an automated high-throughput lab, then supplies the materials to 3C, aerospace and fusion customers.
- 2026-09-02RhinovatePre-A · several hundred million yuanPairs an AI-scientist agent with robotic labs and pilot scale-up to develop polymers, carbon-fibre composites and battery electrolytes, incubated at Peking University's Shenzhen campus.
