Venomics AI is a Bengaluru-based biotechnology startup spun out of the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) that combines venom biology, artificial intelligence and laboratory screening to turn venom-derived molecules into therapeutic candidates. Its platform sequences animal venoms to build the Venom Atlas, a proprietary molecular dataset tied to experimentally measured activity, then uses AI to prioritise drug candidates and validates them through in-house functional screening, with the results feeding back into subsequent predictions and molecular design. The company was co-founded by Kartik Sunagar, an IISc professor who leads the Evolutionary Venomics Lab, and Vinay Prabhu, a Carnegie Mellon-trained machine learning researcher who serves as chief technology officer.
