Biotech & Life Sciences

AI biotech applications that ship to production

PrismBase builds production ML and Gen AI systems for biotech teams, document intelligence, R&D pipelines, and predictive models under NDA. One senior principal, one contract, governed deliverables your team owns.

Biotech AI use cases

We build applications biotech teams search for, not generic "AI transformation" decks.

Scientific document intelligence

Extract structured entities from lab reports, ELN exports, regulatory filings, and vendor COAs, with human-in-the-loop QA and full audit trails for IP-sensitive data.

R&D data pipelines

Production ETL and feature pipelines connecting assay results, instrument outputs, and metadata, versioned, reproducible, and ready for modeling or downstream LIMS integration.

Predictive & classification models

Assay outcome prediction, QC anomaly detection, and experiment prioritization, classical ML where it outperforms Gen AI, with monitoring and drift detection in production.

Governed Gen AI for research teams

Internal RAG over approved document corpora with access controls, citation requirements, and evaluation harnesses, not open-ended ChatGPT deployments on proprietary sequences or formulations.

MLOps for regulated workflows

Model cards, lineage tracking, CI/CD for pipelines, and incident runbooks designed for biotech compliance expectations, even when formal GxP scope is client-owned.

Infrastructure & cost optimization

Right-size cloud spend for compute-heavy workloads, batch training, genomics-adjacent pipelines, and high-volume document processing.

Anonymized case study · NDA

Production AI application for R&D workflows (NDA)

Shipped a governed document-intelligence and data pipeline under NDA: structured extraction, human-in-the-loop QA, audit trails, and handoff runbooks. Client identity and proprietary science remain confidential.

Production

Under active NDA

Scoped engagement, production deploy within agreed window

Why biotech teams choose PrismBase

  • NDA-first engagements, client identity and proprietary science stay confidential
  • Production Standard: deployed code, monitoring, and runbooks
  • Senior principal builds and deploys, you work with the person doing the work
  • Honest scoping: we redirect when AI is not the right tool for the workflow
  • IP transfer included, your team owns models, pipelines, and documentation

The Production Standard

The Production Standard

Six commitments contracted in writing on every engagement.

01

Deploy or redirect

If AI isn't the right tool, we say so in week one and redirect budget to what will ship. No POC theater.

02

Metrics before models

Business KPIs locked in discovery. Model selection follows the metric, not the hype cycle.

03

Governance from day one

Model cards, access controls, evaluation harnesses, and audit trails, not a compliance bolt-on at go-live.

04

Production artifacts

Deployed code, monitoring dashboards, CI/CD pipelines, and incident runbooks. Not recommendations for someone else to implement.

05

6-week production target

Scoped projects designed for production in 6–10 weeks. Boutiques move; global programs wait for steering committees.

06

Capability transfer

Your team can operate, extend, and maintain what we build. IP and documentation transfer is included, not upsold.

Every scoped project includes a production deliverable checklist signed off before close. If we can't commit to deployable output, we won't take the engagement.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work under NDA with biotech clients?

Yes. We routinely execute NDAs before discovery. Case studies and marketing references are anonymized unless the client approves public attribution.

What biotech AI applications do you build?

Document extraction from scientific and regulatory text, R&D data pipelines, predictive models for assay and operational outcomes, and governed internal Gen AI (RAG) over approved corpora. We focus on production systems your team can operate.

Are you GxP validated?

PrismBase is not a GxP validation vendor. We design architecture and documentation to support your compliance requirements; formal validation remains client responsibility with your QA/RA partners.

How do engagements start?

Discovery call to assess fit, then a scoped SOW with KPI targets and Production Deliverable Checklist, or a DB Optimizer audit if Postgres performance is the immediate bottleneck.

Building AI for biotech?

Tell us about your R&D workflow, data sensitivity, and production timeline. We'll be honest about fit, and sign an NDA before any technical deep dive.
