Scientists use Cradle to engineer better proteins through intelligent exploration of sequence space. By learning from every experimental data point, Cradle discovers novel sequences far beyond adjacent space and enables simultaneous optimization of multiple properties like stability, expression, and binding. With models continuously developed and validated in its Amsterdam wet lab and seamless integration with existing laboratory workflows, Cradle helps scientific teams significantly reduce the number of experimental rounds while increasing success rates – with users reporting 1.5x to 12x faster progress toward their protein engineering goals.
