What You Should Know: 

– Weave Bio, an AI-native life sciences platform company, announced today the public release of its flagship offering, AutoIND, and $10 million in seed funding co-led by Innovation Endeavors and Magnetic Ventures. 

– AutoIND marks a significant advancement in drug development by automating and accelerating the preparation, writing, and review process for Investigational New Drug (IND) applications.

Automating the IND Process: A Game-Changer for Drug Development

AutoIND marks a significant advancement in the drug development process by automating and accelerating the preparation, writing, and review of Investigational New Drug (IND) applications. The IND submission process, crucial for moving potential therapies from labs to clinical trials, has traditionally been a time-consuming and manual endeavor.

AutoIND: AI-Powered Efficiency

Weave Bio’s AutoIND addresses these challenges by leveraging AI to automate and streamline the IND process. Key features include:

  • Dynamic Data Management: AutoIND builds a “living record” of therapeutic candidates, automatically generating content based on user data, regulatory guidelines, and public information.
  • Enhanced Review and Editing: The platform provides robust in-platform quality review and editing capabilities, significantly improving oversight and collaboration.
  • Reduced Timelines: AutoIND can generate a first draft of an IND in a single day and reduce the overall submission time by over 50%.

Impact and Future Growth

This significant time and cost reduction empowers drug developers to:

  • Focus on Innovation: By freeing up resources, researchers can dedicate more time to scientific advancements.
  • Accelerate Clinical Trials: Faster IND submissions translate to quicker access to potentially life-saving treatments for patients.
  • Lower Costs: Streamlined processes lead to reduced development expenses.

“We’re acutely aware of the high stakes involved in the IND submission process. AutoIND was developed to streamline the tasks best delegated to AI, while leaving regulatory and subject matter experts in the driver seat,” said Ari Caroline, co-founder and CEO of Weave Bio. “The support from Innovation Endeavors and Magnetic Ventures has allowed us to significantly accelerate development of AutoIND and demonstrate to pharma and biotech teams how an AI-native platform can transform their current work processes.”
