Drug Discovery

Discovering new drugs is among the most challenging and resource-intensive tasks that humanity has ever engaged in. Bringing a single drug all the way from target identification to patients is a scientific tour de force that can take over a decade and often costs over a billion dollars.

Accelerating Drug Discovery

Rowan helps researchers find better therapeutics faster. Our modern, high-accuracy simulation platform allows chemists and biologists to easily run powerful computations instead of needing to synthesize and evaluate compounds in the laboratory. With Rowan, compounds with the wrong structure or properties can quickly be rejected, allowing scientists to focus their valuable time and energy on more fruitful regions of chemical space.

Using Rowan saves you time in the lab and helps you find better drugs. We put state-of-the-art scientific tools directly into the hands of drug designers who need these insights most, eliminating the costly technical and communication barriers between different departments and skillsets and bringing computations where they're needed most.

A Differentiated Simulation Platform

We take care of the software so you can focus on the science.

Rowan is dramatically different from legacy simulation software packages. Our platform is built around cutting-edge ML-accelerated simulations, enabling us to generate results faster and with higher predictive power. Using Rowan ensures that the latest advances in chemical modeling, machine learning, and high-performance computing will always be available to your team.

Rowan's software is easy-to-use and runs from your web browser, making it simple for scientists with any background to benefit from our simulations and workflows. We automatically allocate high-performance computing resources, stream updates as calculations are running, and generate publication-quality visuals for every calculation.

Don't know how to get started with computations? Rowan comes with built-in workflows designed to provide high-accuracy predictions across a variety of workflows. Our team of expert computational chemists and computer scientists works hard to make sure that our platform answers your scientific questions quickly and accurately, so you can benefit from Rowan without ever having run computations before.

Enabling Innovation

Simulation and machine learning are transforming the way drug discovery is performed, but the pace of recent advances threatens to leave conventional drug-design teams behind. Rowan's here to fix that. If you want to bring the power of modern AI/ML tools and accurate physics-based simulations to your organization, Rowan is the perfect choice for you.
