The science behind the predictions.
Molecular learning, mechanistic interpretation and experimental feedback.

How predictions are built
Learning chemistry at molecular scale
A pretrained graph neural network learns patterns in atoms, bonds and their surroundings, turning molecular structure into a rich numerical representation.
Opsin builds on this foundation with models trained for specific biological mechanisms, connecting molecular patterns to experimental outcomes.

How confidence is assessed
A prediction is only useful when you understand its limits.
Tested on unseen chemistry
Held-out chemical series challenge generalisation.
Uncertainty and applicability
See how confident a prediction is, and where the model applies.
How models improve
Each experimental round adapts the models to your programme.
