The Foundation
Building the Data Layer for Predictive Biology
AI can predict words, images, and proteins, yet it still struggles to predict biological outcomes. The missing ingredient is dynamic biological data.
The Gap
Biology's AI Revolution Is Missing Its Data Layer
Despite remarkable advances in genomics, proteomics, and AI, biology remains difficult to predict. Most biological datasets capture a single moment in time, while biology itself is dynamic. Without dynamic data, AI can describe biology, but it struggles to predict it.

The Shift
From Biological Snapshots
to Biological Trajectories
Traditional biological measurements capture isolated snapshots of cells at a single point in time. Yet biological outcomes are determined not by a cell's current state, but by how it behaves and evolves over time. TeraCyte captures the behavior of millions of living cells, revealing dynamic cellular trajectories that contain predictive information invisible to conventional approaches.

The Innovation
BioTokens™: Making Living Biology
Learnable by AI
BioTokens™ are the language layer that makes living biology learnable by AI. TeraCyte transforms dynamic live-cell behavior into compact, AI-ready representations that capture how cells change, respond, adapt, and evolve over time.
These BioTokens allow predictive models to learn from cellular behavior, not just molecular snapshots, enabling a new generation of biological AI trained on the signals that drive biological outcomes.
Applications
Predictive Biology Across
Multiple Applications
Immunology
Predict immune response, disease progression, and therapeutic outcomes by learning directly from dynamic immune-cell behavior. Immunology is our first focus and the foundation of our growing BioToken™ dataset.
Bioproduction
Predict clone performance, potency, and manufacturing yield, enabling earlier decisions and more efficient biologics development and manufacturing.
Future Opportunities
Extend predictive biology across additional diseases, therapies, and cellular systems as the BioToken™ platform continues to grow.
One platform. One data layer. Multiple predictive applications.

The Future of Biology
Is Predictive
Traditional biology measures what is happening.
Predictive biology forecasts what happens next.
The move from measurement to prediction represents the next frontier of biology, medicine, and AI.
This is the future we are building at TeraCyte: a world where biology is not only measured, but predicted.
