We build machines that do science
Starting with discovering
the chemistry of everyday life
01 / Our work
Formulation is still trial and error. We are making it a science of loops.
A new moisturizer or shampoo is typically found by hand: a chemist mixes, waits, measures and tries again. The space of possible products is vast, spanning thousands of ingredients, their ratios and the way they are processed, and each experiment take days.
At Kodimo, we are building an autonomous formulation lab, software and hardware working in a closed loop, to discover consumer goods, starting with personal care.
02 / Sneak peek
Autonomous, end-to-end scientific discovery.
Generate candidates from a product brief
A brief states what the product must do: how it feels, the claims it supports, cost, safety and regulatory limits. AI models reason over ingredient knowledge and prior experiments to propose candidate formulations, then predict their properties before anything is mixed.
Test them in a robotic wet lab
Robots dispense, mix and emulsify each candidate, then measure what matters: viscosity, pH, droplet size and stability under stress. Every run is logged with complete provenance, so no result is ever lost or unrepeatable.
Learn, and improve the next candidates
Results flow back into the models. The system decides what to try next, balancing the exploration of unknown chemistry against refining what already works, so each cycle lands closer to the brief than the last.
03 / Mission
Every medicine in the cabinet, every soap by the sink, every material we depend on was found one attempt at a time, by people who could only work so fast. That pace has quietly set the ceiling on how much of the natural world humanity understands. We are here to break it. When the search never sleeps, a career's worth of work fits into a single season. We are after nothing less than a future where new knowledge is abundant, and its benefits reach everyone.
04 / Team
A modest troop of CS and Math graduates from IITs with expertise in AI for scientific research, self-driving cars and the natural sciences.
