Case Study  ·  White Paper

Ranking compounds for synthetic biology.

A synthetic biology company could make compounds that today depend on agricultural production, but faced a vast list of targets. We built a database to prioritize compounds and wrote a white paper on its value proposition.

The Client

The client is a synthetic biology company. It wanted to know which compounds to make first and to support its funding efforts.

The Challenge

Endless targets.
Choose the best first.

Prescouter was asked to prioritize compounds for synthetic biology production from a vast universe of agriculture-dependent targets and to help create a white paper on the client’s value proposition.

  • Science

    Synthesis know-how

    How well each process is understood.

  • Market

    Current demand

    The size of each drug market.

  • Supply

    Supply chain risk

    Reliance on global crop supply.

Our Approach

Ranking every compound on science, market and risk.

Compound database
3ranking criteria

Build the database

We organized a large set of compounds by synthesis knowledge, market and supply chain risk.

Supply analysis
Globalsupply chain view

Weigh the risk

We assessed how much each drug depends on international agricultural supply chains.

Make the case

We wrote the white paper with the client team to summarize its value proposition.

The Outcome

Clear priorities and a case for funding.

Prescouter delivered a prioritized compound database and a white paper built with the client team. The client used them to choose the markets to enter next and to support its work to secure grant funding.

  • Priorities

    Ranked compounds

    Ordered by science, market and risk.

  • Markets

    Next markets chosen

    Guiding where to expand.

  • Funding
