AI agents

Agents that own a unit operation, not a dashboard.

Each Polymorra agent perceives its own physics, plans inside a validated window, acts through your existing control system, and hands off to the next agent with a complete record.

The roster

Seven agents, charge to release

Deployed individually or as the full loop.

React-and-charge agent

Controls reagent and solvent charging, temperature, pH, and addition rate to hit target conversion and impurity profile — not just hold a setpoint.

Learn more

Crystallize-and-seed agent

Controls the cooling and antisolvent profile, seeding, supersaturation, and agitation to land the target polymorph, particle size, habit, and purity.

Learn more

Purity-and-polymorph agent

Senses and predicts polymorphic form, particle size and habit, and chemical, chiral, and genotoxic impurities from Raman, FBRM, PVM, and NIR fusion.

Learn more

Isolate-and-dry agent

Controls filtration, washing, drying, and milling to spec — protecting the crystal you just made through the hardest downstream steps.

Learn more

Robot-and-sampling agent

Drives robotic sampling, reagent charging, and material handling so the loop closes without exposing operators to the reaction mass.

Learn more

Flow-and-continuous agent

Optimizes continuous-flow and continuous-crystallization operation, holding the operating window through disturbances.

Learn more

Record-and-review agent

Runs batch-record review by exception with a 21 CFR Part 11 audit trail, so release stops being a reviewer bottleneck.

Learn more

API-knowledge agent

Answers route, SOP, deviation, and specification questions with citations to your own documents, spectra, and batch history.

Agent 01

React-and-charge

Controls reagent and solvent charging, jacket temperature, pH, and addition rate to reach the target conversion and impurity profile — reasoning about the reaction, not just holding a number.

  • Adaptive addition rate against exotherm and conversion
  • Impurity-aware endpoint rather than fixed hold time
  • Charge verification and material traceability
  • Hard safety envelopes that the agent cannot cross

Agent 02

Crystallize-and-seed

The heart of Polymorra. Controls the cooling and antisolvent profile, seed timing and load, supersaturation, and agitation to land the target polymorph, particle size distribution, habit, and purity.

  • Supersaturation held inside the metastable zone
  • Seed timing decided from live FBRM and Raman, not the clock
  • Oiling-out and secondary-nucleation risk flagged in-run
  • Profile adapted per batch instead of replayed from a recipe

Agent 03

Purity-and-polymorph

An in-line soft sensor for the things you normally wait hours to learn: polymorphic form, particle size and habit, and chemical, chiral, and genotoxic impurities — predicted from fused Raman, FBRM, PVM, and NIR before XRPD and HPLC confirm it.

  • Form prediction with confidence and cited spectra
  • Particle size distribution from chord-length and image data
  • Impurity trajectory rather than a single end-of-batch number

Agent 04

Isolate-and-dry

The crystal you fought for can still be destroyed in filtration, washing, drying, or milling. This agent controls cake washing, drying end-point, and particle attrition to keep form and size on spec through the hardest downstream steps.

  • Drying endpoint on solvent and moisture prediction
  • Attrition and agglomeration monitoring during milling
  • Form-conversion risk detection during drying

The autonomous loop

Perceive, plan, act, sense, optimize, log

Polymorra closes the loop around the reaction mass and the crystal — the two things a conventional DCS cannot actually see.

  1. Perceive

    Fuse Raman, FBRM, PVM in-situ imaging, NIR, and reactor telemetry into a live picture of the reaction mass, slurry, and solids.

  2. Plan

    Plan the react-and-charge, crystallize-and-seed, and isolate-and-dry moves for this batch against the target polymorph, particle size, and purity.

  3. Act

    Run with adaptive control: cooling and antisolvent profile, seeding, supersaturation, agitation, addition rate, and endpoint.

  4. Sense & predict

    Predict polymorph, particle size and habit, impurity profile, and yield in-line — before offline XRPD and HPLC confirm it.

  5. Optimize

    Optimize yield, solvent use, cycle time, and reprocessing risk across the campaign, then flag off-spec and polymorph risk early.

  6. Log & retrain

    Write an immutable Part 11 record; every chemist correction trains the site model and compounds the data moat.

Supporting agents

Flow, robotics, record, and knowledge

The agents that make the loop continuous, hands-free, and releasable.

Agent 05

Flow-and-continuous

Holds the operating window for continuous-flow chemistry and continuous crystallization through feed, thermal, and fouling disturbances.

Agent 06

Robot-and-sampling

Drives robotic sampling, reagent charging, and material handling so the loop closes without operator exposure.

Agent 07

Record-and-review

Runs batch-record review by exception with an immutable 21 CFR Part 11 audit trail behind every claim.

Agent 08

API-knowledge

Answers route, SOP, deviation, and specification questions with citations to your own documents and batch history.

Plant-edge console

One screen for the batch that is running right now

Supersaturation, particle size distribution, predicted polymorph, impurity trajectory, and the next control move — with the evidence behind each number.

Trust & compliance

Validated for GMP manufacturing

Polymorra is engineered for regulated drug-substance production: grounded outputs, immutable audit trails, graduated autonomy, and validation documentation from day one.

21 CFR Part 11

Immutable, validated audit log for every agent perception, recommendation, and control action, with e-signature-ready review flows.

GMP / ICH Q7

Change control, validated model versioning, and deployment documentation designed for drug-substance manufacturing.

SOC 2

SOC 2 Type I in progress, Type II on the roadmap; SSO/RBAC, encryption in transit and at rest. [ASPIRATIONAL]

Route & IP protection

Per-tenant isolation of routes, recipes, spectra, and crystal images. No cross-tenant training. On-prem option.

Graduated autonomy

Shadow → assist → bounded auto-control. Every autonomy level is explicitly configured, bounded, and revocable.

Grounded outputs

Every recommendation cites the spectra, images, telemetry, SOP, or specification it was derived from.

Plant-edge first

Inference runs on-site so control loops survive network loss; cloud is for training, fleet, and analytics.

Human-in-the-loop

Chemist and QA checkpoints are first-class: approve, correct, or reject — and every correction trains the models.

Voices from the plant

What operators say

Composite quotes from design-partner discovery interviews. [PLACEHOLDER — to be replaced with named references post-pilot]

“The crystallization step is where our campaigns live or die. Seeing supersaturation, particle size, and predicted polymorph in one place — and having the profile adjust itself — is what we have wanted for twenty years.”
Crystallization & PAT EngineerTop-20 branded pharma · API site
“We do not want another dashboard. We want the batch to come out right and the record to be reviewable by exception. That is the only pitch that gets past QA.”
QA / Regulatory ManagerGeneric API manufacturer
“Tech transfer is our bottleneck. If the twin can predict the plant crystal from the lab crystal, that is worth more than the software costs.”

Deploy one agent. Prove one number.

Start with one crystallizer or reactor train. Prove polymorph, yield, and reprocessing ROI in a validation-friendly pilot. Then expand across the plant.
