About

Enzymit is a bioproduction platform company that applies AI-designed enzymes to cell-free manufacturing. The company leverages computational design and deep learning to engineer enzymes that outperform their natural counterparts, delivering improved expression and thermal stability, and eliminating the need for expensive cofactors. This technology aims to make bioproduction faster, simpler, cost-effective, and sustainable, replacing outdated, pollution-producing chemical manufacturing with green, cell-free enzymatic production methods. Enzymit's platform has been validated with pharmaceutical-grade hyaluronic acid (HA) and is also developing human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs).
