Daptics

Daptics was a machine learning-guided protein engineering company that developed a proprietary "Smart Design of Experiments" (Smart DOE) platform. The technology was designed to optimize protein sequences and experimental workflows, allowing for more efficient discovery and refinement of biological molecules. By utilizing advanced algorithms, Daptics helped researchers navigate complex sequence spaces to identify optimal protein variants with significantly fewer experimental iterations. The company was acquired by Ginkgo Bioworks in October 2021 to integrate its AI-driven optimization tools into Ginkgo's horizontal cell programming platform.
