About

Cellular Intelligence (formerly Somite.ai) is an AI-native TechBio and clinical-stage company building a universal foundation model of cell signaling to understand, predict, and ultimately control cellular behavior, transforming biology from trial-and-error into an engineering discipline. The company takes a full-stack approach, generating perturbation data at over 1,000x the efficiency of conventional methods, capturing millions of time-resolved treatment combinations per experiment and training large-scale models that generalize across contexts to enable rational protocol design for regenerative medicine, context-specific drug effect prediction and systematic disease modeling. Their proprietary capsule technology generates dynamic cellular data at over 1,000x higher efficiency than existing methods. The company has acquired global rights to STEM-PD, a clinical-stage allogeneic cell therapy program for Parkinson's disease with FDA Fast Track Designation, from Novo Nordisk. This program serves as both a therapy the company is advancing for patients and a proving ground for its technology.
