Katalyst D2D® Overview
Software to Streamline High Throughput Experiments from Design to Decide
Katalyst D2D (Design to Decide) is an AI-enabled software application that offers integrated, automated experiment planning, execution, and analysis. Everything you need for high throughput experimentation in a single interface.
Automated connection to live analytical data for each experiment means decisive and efficient decision-making for a wide variety of high throughput experimentation (HTE) applications.
Integrated AI tools support optimal experimental designs and export of structured results for cross-experiment analysis and ML dataset preparation. Katalyst is essential for digitalized HTE.
Benefits
Efficient HTE with AI Inside
Automate HTE in One Interface
- Katalyst is purpose-built to automate and analyze your entire high throughput and parallel chemistry workflow in one interface.Integrate with your networked hardware, laboratory execution systems, lab automation equipment, analytical instruments, and informatics systems.
Ensure Data Integrity
- Reduce the risk of error propagation from data transcription between systems. Katalyst automates manual tasks and eliminates transcription between the multiple software applications you currently use to design, plan, and execute HT, array-based chemistry or parallel synthesis.
AI-Enabled Reaction Design
- Quickly achieve optimal reaction conditions using the AI-powered Bayesian optimization tool. Input your parameters and let the software guide your design of experiments (DoE). Investigate a path to autonomous HTE using no-code AI models with interactive visualizations.
Decide Faster with Assembled Results
- Katalyst automatically assembles all your analytical data, from entire studies, in one place. Data generated in HT experiments is connected with each well so you can get from Design to Decide in one application.
- Conveniently reprocess batch data or a selection of experiment datasets, no matter the instrument.
Flexibility in Data Analysis
- Visualize your results within the Katalyst interface or, because your data is not locked into our format, export it for analysis in your favorite data visualization software.
Leverage Structured Data for AI/ML
- Pipeline the volumes of structured data you generate and manage with Katalyst, to machine learning and artificial intelligence models.
