About Scailyte
Scailyte is an ETH Zürich spin-off with a proprietary artificial intelligence platform for the discovery of complex disease patterns from single-cell data. Our solution ScaiVision® provides unprecedented insight into the disease and patients’ biology and enables the discovery of new clinically-relevant biomarker signatures, with a focus on oncology and immunology.
Scailyte’s proprietary data analysis platform ScaiVision® associates multimodal single-cell datasets (RNA-/TCR-/BCR-seq, proteomics, etc.) with clinical endpoints, such as disease diagnosis, progression, severity, treatment response, and toxicity response to identify ultra-sensitive biomarker signatures and cell functionality states. The performance and clinically relevant applications of Scailyte’s platform ScaiVision® have been demonstrated in various projects in oncology and immunology. Additionally, Scailyte leverages a broad network of top clinicians to identify clinical indications with high unmet clinical needs and collaborates with global pharmaceutical and biotech companies to translate novel biomarkers into ultra-sensitive companion diagnostics (CDx) or IVD assays.
