Amazon Web Services Launches AI-Powered Drug Discovery App

Gate News message, April 15 — Amazon Web Services (AWS) has launched Amazon Bio Discovery, an AI application designed for early-stage drug discovery. The platform enables scientists to run computational workflows without coding and send shortlisted molecules to lab partners for synthesis and testing.

The product combines biological foundation models that generate and evaluate drug molecules with an AI agent that assists users in selecting models, setting parameters, and interpreting results. Early adopters include Bayer, the Broad Institute, and Voyager Therapeutics. AWS Vice President for Healthcare AI and Life Sciences Rajiv Chopra stated that work previously requiring 18 months to produce 300 potential drug candidates can now be completed in a couple of weeks.

The service will begin with a free trial offering five experimental units before transitioning to subscription-based pricing tiers.
