Ratan Bio
AI-Powered Therapeutics for Neurological Disorders

Protein therapeutics and clinical intelligence for CNS disorders.

Scroll
Two Integrated Verticals
Clinical AI generates data and revenue. That data informs therapeutic protein design. The proteins treat the patients AI identified.
Revenue Engine

Clinical AI Solutions

AI screening and decision-support tools for neurological and ENT conditions. DBS candidacy assessment, Parkinson's progression prediction, ear disease diagnosis. Revenue through hospital partnerships.

Long-Term Pipeline

AI Protein Therapeutics

De novo design of therapeutic proteins targeting CNS disorders. Uses RFdiffusion, ProteinMPNN, and AlphaFold to create BBB-crossing biologics. The long-term R&D play.

The Flywheel: Clinical AI tools identify patients and generate data → Data informs which protein therapeutics to design → Proteins treat the patients → cycle repeats.

Vision & Mission

Vision

A world where neurological diseases are detected early and treated with precision-designed protein therapeutics.

Mission

By 2029, we aim to deploy AI screening tools in 50 Korean hospitals and advance 2 novel protein therapeutics into preclinical validation.

The Name: Ratan Bio is named after the founder's father, Ratan - a word meaning "jewel" in Punjabi and Hindi. The company carries his name as a tribute and a promise.
