Your Proteomics Partner,
from Study Design to Data

Why choose ?

You bring the questions. We bring the answers.

  • Seamless End-to-End Workflow

    Everything under one roof: proteomics measurements, advanced analysis, AI-driven insights, and access to curated clinical samples.

  • Advanced technology platform

    Latest-generation mass spectrometry combined with proprietary workflows for highest quantitative precision and deepest proteome coverage.

  • Fast turnaround times

    Get your data in weeks, not months.

  • Quality marker panels

    Pioneers in assessing pre-analytical variation in biofluids — our quality-marker panels catch sample-related biases before they reach your data.

  • Interactive results platform

    Explore data without effort and create, test, and validate new hypotheses in a secure web app.

  • Ready-to-use visualization

    High-quality figures you can use immediately in decks, reports, publications, patents and brochures.

Roots in the field

Trained where modern proteomics began.

Our founders trained in Matthias Mann's laboratory at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry—a proteomics pioneer and one of the most-cited researchers in Europe—and in Feng Zhang's lab at MIT. With the experience from their first company, OmicEra Diagnostics, they built an industry-grade platform that combines deep scientific expertise with a clear understanding of what biotech and pharma clients need: proteomics data they can trust, at scale. Our team brings together scientists from other leading proteomics labs, including Steven Carr's at the Broad Institute, and engineers from fields like AI and computer vision.

  • Not sure which approach fits? Not sure about the required samples? Unsure about your study design? We'll scope your project with you, free of charge.

  • Reproducible SOPs for high peptide recovery and deep coverage, optimized for each individual workflow, e.g. global proteomics or PTM analysis.

  • Discovery or validation: precise and consistent protein and peptide data using the Orbitrap Astral.

  • Dedicated quality-marker panels flag pre-analytical variation and sample-related biases, identified, quantified, and where possible corrected before they reach your results.

  • Advanced processing and statistics, tailored to your project’s goals.

  • Publication/brochure-ready report plus access to our interactive results platform, VeriDyne Navigator.

VeriDyne Software Suite

Software built on years of trusted proteomics expertise

A suite of proprietary tools covering everything from raw spectra interpretation and interactive data exploration to real-time quality monitoring and the data layer underneath.

Also in the suite
  • VeriDyne Vault

    The reference data layer beneath the measurements, so every result can be read in a richer biological context. The foundation models built on top of it are in active development.

  • VeriDyne Monitor

    Real-time quality monitoring. It watches every acquisition as it runs, tracking instrument performance and control samples, so drift is caught and corrected before it reaches your data.

Let's plan your study

Every study that is executed incorrectly consumes valuable sample material, and, more importantly, wastes time and manpower. In our fast-paced scientific environment, these resources cannot be recovered.
