## About

Founded in 2023 and based in California, US, Yoneda Labs, Inc. provides software to help chemists optimize reactions. Michal Mgeladze-Arciuch (CEO), Jan Oboril, and Daniel Vlasits (CTO) are the co-founders of the company. In April 2024, Yoneda Labs, Inc. raised USD 4 million in seed funding led by Khosla Ventures, including 500 Global, Fellows.Fund, 468 Capital, and Y Combinator.

The company provides tools for streamlining reaction optimization and prediction, allowing chemists to get optimal outcomes. The firm's main product is Yoneda Optimize, which addresses the difficulty of reaction optimization. Chemists can use a desktop application to speed up the optimization procedure. Yoneda Labs also offers Yoneda Predict, a tool that removes the need for extended wet lab experiments by supplying reaction conditions directly to medicinal chemists. Yoneda Predict uses algorithms and data analytics to ensure that scientists do not have to repeat a failed reaction.

The organization plans to use the April 2024 funding to acquire the robotic automation devices needed to run chemical reactions and expand its development efforts.
