Generate and optimize protein candidates using AI models trained on your experimental data, track rounds from design through wet-lab validation, and improve multiple properties like stability and activity without royalty fees.

infoAbout Cradle
Cradle is an AI-powered protein engineering platform that lets scientists generate protein candidates and improve their properties using machine learning. The system creates custom models trained on your organization's experimental data, then suggests designs to optimize multiple protein properties—such as activity, binding affinity, stability, and expression—in fewer wet-lab rounds. Users upload experimental results after each round, and the platform learns from this data to generate new candidates. The vendor reports that teams using Cradle see 2–12× faster development timelines. The platform supports antibodies, enzymes, vaccines, and peptides for applications in therapeutics, agriculture, food ingredients, and industrial biology. Security features include SOC 2 compliance (vendor-reported), single sign-on via Google and Microsoft, and privacy guarantees that your sequences and data are never used to train models for other organizations. Cradle maintains its own wet lab in Amsterdam to validate and improve base models before client data is introduced. The platform is offered as a software subscription with no royalties; customers retain full intellectual property ownership. A free tier or pricing details are not stated in the content.
