SigmatoeOS · v0.1

The agentic operating system for life sciences R&D

Sigmatoe turns AI from a copilot into an autopilot. A Scout Mesh of autonomous agents orchestrates dry lab computation and wet lab automation — moving from hypothesis to discovery in hours, with every action deterministic, traceable, and compliant.

The pipeline, live

One continuous flow, from question to defensible answer

Sigmatoe orchestrates the entire research loop as a single, observable pipeline. Watch a hypothesis flow through the Scout Mesh into dry and wet lab execution and emerge as a fully traceable finding.

From copilot to autopilot

Legacy systems take weeks. SigmatoeOS takes hours.

Most AI tools stop at suggestions, leaving scientists to stitch together pipelines by hand. SigmatoeOS is an agentic operating system that dynamically constructs and runs entire R&D pipelines, separating reasoning from execution so results are reproducible and defensible.

  • Decomposes research questions into parallel, specialized work
  • Converges on a single auditable finding with traced evidence
  • Bridges dry lab computation and wet lab execution end to end

Why teams choose Sigmatoe

Serious science deserves a serious operating system

Four principles guide everything the Scout Mesh does — so your lab moves faster without ever trading away rigor.

Reproducible by Design

Every run captures its inputs, tools, and decisions in a tamper-evident trail — so any finding can be replayed and defended, exactly.

Ask in Plain Language

Pose a hypothesis in a sentence. Sigmatoe parses intent, constraints, and success criteria — no scripting or pipeline wiring required.

Agents That Collaborate

Specialized agents for docking, ADMET, literature, and assay design work in parallel, then converge on a single, coherent answer.

Transparent Orchestration

Watch reasoning and execution stay cleanly separated, with deterministic tool calls you can inspect at every layer of the mesh.

How it works

From a sentence to a defensible discovery

A single agentic loop replaces the brittle chain of scripts, handoffs, and spreadsheets that slows modern research to a crawl.

  1. Step 01

    Ask a research question

    Pose a hypothesis in plain language — "find selective inhibitors for target X with favorable ADMET." Sigmatoe parses intent, constraints, and success criteria.

  2. Step 02

    The Scout Mesh plans

    The orchestrator decomposes the question into parallel tasks and dispatches specialized agents — docking, ADMET, literature, and assay design — each with the right tools.

  3. Step 03

    Dry and wet lab execute

    Deterministic tool calls run computational pipelines, then translate winning designs into executable protocols for Hamilton, Tecan, and Opentrons instruments.

  4. Step 04

    Receive an auditable finding

    Results converge into a single answer with every decision, dataset, and citation captured in a tamper-evident, 21 CFR Part 11-ready audit trail.

Scout Mesh

A mesh of specialized agents, working in parallel

The Scout Mesh decomposes a research question into specialized sub-agents that run analyses simultaneously, then converge on a single, auditable finding.

Σ

Docking Scout

Runs structure-based docking across ligand libraries and ranks binding poses.

Σ

ADMET Scout

Predicts absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity profiles.

Σ

Literature Scout

Synthesizes prior art and evidence with citations traced to source.

Σ

Assay Design Scout

Proposes and validates assay parameters ready for wet lab execution.

Architecture

Five layers that separate reasoning from execution

Every action is deterministic and verifiable — by design, not by convention.

01

Audit & Compliance

A cryptographically secure audit trail records every decision and action for regulatory review.

02

Orchestration

Dynamically constructs and runs R&D pipelines, decomposing questions into parallel work.

03

Agent Fabric

The Scout Mesh of specialized autonomous agents that reason, plan, and converge on findings.

04

Tool & Data Integration

Connects to cheminformatics, dry lab pipelines, and your existing scientific data sources.

05

Wet Lab Interface

Translates experimental designs into executable protocols for automation instruments.

Use cases

Built for the hardest problems in R&D

Wherever computation meets the bench, Sigmatoe closes the loop — turning weeks of coordination into an autonomous, auditable workflow.

Small-molecule discovery

Screen vast ligand libraries, rank binding poses, and filter for drug-likeness before a single reaction is run.

Target identification

Synthesize genomic and proteomic evidence with cited literature to prioritize the most promising therapeutic targets.

Assay development

Design, simulate, and validate assay parameters, then push executable protocols straight to lab automation.

Green & synthetic biology

Optimize enzyme and strain candidates across dry-lab prediction and wet-lab confirmation in one continuous loop.

On-Premise Deployment

Deploy fully within your own private cloud or on-premise environment — your data never leaves your control.

“We started Sigmatoe because researchers were spending more time wiring pipelines together than actually doing science. The goal is simple: ask a question in plain language, and get back a finding you can defend.”
William FosterFounder & CEO, Sigmatoe
Principles

The commitments behind the platform

Provenance over plausibility

Every finding is traceable to its source. We surface evidence, not guesses.

Your data is never trained on

Customer data is isolated and never used to train shared models. Full stop.

Deterministic tool calls

We prefer verifiable, deterministic execution over LLM-generated answers.

Built with scientists

Our roadmap is co-developed directly with the researchers who use it.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Is my research data ever used to train shared models?

No. Customer data is fully isolated and is never used to train shared or foundation models. Your data stays yours — full stop.

Can Sigmatoe be deployed on-premise?

Yes. SigmatoeOS can deploy entirely within your own private cloud or on-premise environment, so sensitive research data never leaves your control — with the same agentic capabilities available in our managed cloud.

How do you ensure results are reproducible?

We separate reasoning from execution and prefer deterministic tool calls over generative answers. Every action, dataset, and decision is recorded in a tamper-evident audit trail for full reproducibility.

Which lab instruments and tools does it integrate with?

Sigmatoe connects to cheminformatics tools like RDKit and AlphaFold 3, dry-lab pipelines such as Nextflow and the Schrödinger Suite, and wet-lab automation from Hamilton, Tecan, and Opentrons — plus notebooks like Benchling and Jupyter.

What compliance standards do you support?

Sigmatoe is built for regulated industries with a 21 CFR Part 11-ready audit trail, SOC 2 Type II controls in progress, and HIPAA-aligned safeguards for sensitive data.
