What changes when it is pharmaceuticals & life sciences

We build agents that plan, call real tools, and know when to stop and ask a human. That last part is what separates a system you can put in front of customers from one that stays in a sandbox.

In pharmaceuticals & life sciences, GxP validation means every system change needs documented evidence before it reaches production. That single fact reshapes how ai agent development has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.

The workload we are most often asked to take on first is adverse event intake and coding, usually integrated against eTMF. Every engagement opens with a measurement: the cycle time, the cost per transaction, or the error rate we are being asked to move.

Multi-model by default, so a provider outage is a routing decision rather than an incident. Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

Questions from this sector

Can an AI system be GxP validated?

Yes, with a documented validation approach, IQ/OQ/PQ, defined intended use, change control and evidence of consistent performance. We build the validation pack alongside the system, not afterwards.

How do you handle 21 CFR Part 11?

Audit trails, electronic signatures, access control and record integrity designed in from the start, because retrofitting them is effectively a rebuild.

How is an AI agent different from a chatbot?

A chatbot answers. An agent acts. It plans a sequence of steps, calls real tools and APIs, and changes state in your systems. That difference is why agents need guardrails, approvals and tracing that a chatbot never does.

How long does an agent take to build?

A scoped single-workflow agent typically reaches production in six weeks. Multi-agent systems spanning several departments run longer, and we stage them so the first workflow is live while the rest is still being built.

Can it run on our own infrastructure?

Yes. We deploy on your cloud, in your VPC, or fully on-premise with open-weight models where data residency or regulation requires it.
