What You Should Know: 

  • Causaly, the leading AI platform for biomedical research raises $60M in Series B funding led by ICONIQ Growth, with participation from Index Ventures, Marathon Venture Capital, EBRD, Pentech Ventures and Visionaries Club. Strategic individuals also participated in the round, including Alex Gorsky (former Chairman and CEO of Johnson & Johnson) and Olivier Pomel (CEO and Co-Founder of Datadog). 
  • The investment brings the total funding raised to $93 million, which will be utilized to extend Causaly’s product lead and expand commercial relationships, enabling breakthrough therapeutic innovations faster than ever before.

Accelerating Life Sciences Research 

Developing a new drug is an arduous process that typically spans over a decade, involving extensive research, development and rigorous clinical trials. There is real urgency to expedite this process for the most complex and unsolved diseases of our age, such as Parkinson’s, lung cancer or multiple sclerosis. Causaly’s AI solution is specifically designed to untangle this complexity, empowering scientists to deeply understand the underlying disease biology.

Using a hybrid approach that combines a best-in-class knowledge graph with the latest advances in generative AI, Causaly enables researchers to conduct deep, unbiased scientific exploration – with the level of reproducibility and agency that the process of scientific inquiry demands. The technology is being adopted at scale by teams of researchers in diverse workflows from target identification to biomarker discovery, with customers including Gilead, Novo Nordisk, Regeneron, the Food and Drug Administration and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. The result is a 10x productivity gain, novel discoveries, and ultimately, a higher success rate of preclinical programs.

“Recent advances in AI open completely new possibilities, and there is a great need for transparent AI systems that science leaders can trust,” said Yiannis Kiachopoulos, Co-founder and CEO of Causaly. “Knowledge is the lifeblood of research organizations, and we are committed to our mission to make it discoverable, working with our customers to make sense of their scientific data and apply insights to enable evidence-driven decisions.”

The latest round comes after the company recently tripled revenue and customers, now serving 12 of the top 20 pharma companies.
