Cradle

Cradle provides protein engineering software that lets scientists design new proteins and optimize several properties, such as efficacy, developability and manufacturability, in parallel. Project-specific models are trained on each customer's assay data, and round forecasting scores candidate plates before lab work begins. The product is offered as a web application for bench scientists and as an API for computational teams.

Customers are described as experimental and computational scientists and R&D leadership, with use cases across antibodies, enzymes, peptides and vaccines in biopharma and industrial bio. The website lists case studies and a press item about Lundbeck using Cradle for antibody design. The site does not state its pricing or revenue model, and it offers a "Talk to a Cradle expert" contact and academic access.

The team page lists five co-founders and offices in Amsterdam (including a lab), Zurich and Boston. The company describes itself as a global team across Europe and the US. Eight open roles were listed, spanning sales, operations, finance, biology, and customer success.
