Advanced polymer design in weeks, not decades

How do you get from billions to four?

A small monomer set opens a design space running into the billions of viable architectures, once composition, topology and molecular weight are counted. Testing your way through that is not slow. It is impossible.

polySCOUT screens the full option space computationally against technical performance, toxicity, end-of-life and cost simultaneously, then hands the lab the handful candidates worth synthesizing.

Two pathways.
One platform.

Same engine, same lab, same validation loop. The only difference is where you start: with a specification and no polymer, or with a polymer and no market. Whether you need to design a next-gen material that meets extreme specs and compliance targets simultaneously, or find commercial fit for a novel material, we accelerate your research journey from years to weeks.

  • Inverse design

    For End Clients, Brands & Manufacturers

    You define your target criteria. Our inverse design engine calculates the exact molecular architecture to meet both your specifications and the strict regulatory limits while we optimize for performance, toxicity, and end-of-life from millisecond one.

    Designing Beyond Performance: We optimize for performance, toxicity, and end-of-life from millisecond one, bypass decades of slow testing, and ensure you enter qualification once, not twice.

    Design a new material
  • Application discovery

    For (Biobased) Monomer & Polymer Producers

    You have synthesized a novel (bio-based) polymer or monomer. Our platform immediately maps your compound against the entire industrial design space, simulating real-world performance to discover high-value commercial fits.

    Accelerated Market Fit: Identify high-margin application spaces where your biobased molecule can directly replace fossil-based or regulated polymers. Our Approach: Targeted contract research and application mapping to radically de-risk commercialization.

    Discover commercial applications

Our intelligence and physical validation continuously accelerate each other.
