Our Impact

Our Impact

Our Impact

Every client – and every lab – is different. But the challenges are often the same:

  • Ad-hoc workflows for bioreactors and instruments

  • Manual data cleaning

  • And analysis tools (like spreadsheets) that simply weren’t built for bioprocess data.

Advances in machine learning and AI unlocked enormous opportunities for biotechnology. But it also made existing problems with bioprocess data even more acute. We founded Invert to address the challenges faced by every bioprocess organization:

  • To accelerate speed to milestones

  • To reduce waste

  • To improve reliability

  • And increase the GDP of biology.
