Engineering oxidative enzymes to crack the carbon-carbon bonds of Polyolefins (PP/PE) — the "un-recyclable" 91%.
Polyolefins dominate global plastic — and almost none of them come back. Zymos closes the loop with AI-designed enzymes.
460M tons of plastic produced annually, with 91% sent to landfills. Mechanical recycling is broken.
Using ProteinMPNN and RFdiffusion to generate optimized sequences 1,000x faster than traditional R&D.
A self-funding engine: cash-flowing services on one track, IP-generating discovery on the other.
Immediate, high-margin cash flow from computational dataset rescue services.
10% gross revenue and 50% net profit automatically funneled to discovery.
Zero-CapEx operations utilizing AI design and outsourced CRO validation.
High-margin upfront capacity fees coupled with recurring backend royalties.
Software-grade margins on a deeptech moat.
Audit Rate for immediate Track B revenue.
Gross Margin powered by 0% VAT & optimized cloud compute.
Virtual Lab Cycle cost for physical validation of 50 AI-designed variants.
Target: Validated Lead Candidate and Provisional Patent Application in 18 Months.
Outsourced wet-lab validation of top variants.
Senior computational biologists & ML engineers.
Pilot reactor partnerships & IP filings.
Funds deployed to CRO screening, Remote R&D Team, and Scale-Up.
