Smart Microscopy

Cytely is a Swedish deep-tech startup that provides an AI-driven "Smart Microscopy" platform designed to transform traditional laboratory microscopes into real-time data engines. Founded in 2023 and based in Lund, the company's hardware-agnostic software automates image acquisition and analysis, allowing researchers to quantify complex cellular phenomena with significantly higher speed and statistical robustness. By eliminating manual bottlenecks, Cytely enables labs to generate publication-ready results in minutes rather than months, supporting applications in virology, oncology, and drug discovery. The platform is already utilized by leading research institutions and has demonstrated the ability to replace expensive high-throughput imaging systems with existing laboratory hardware.
