Introducing Elytra EXO Scope:
An agentic research tool designed to accelerate scientific exploration and surface technical opportunities in food and biomaterials R&D.
In ingredient innovation and biomaterial development, one reality stands out:
Most time isn’t spent running experiments, it’s spent understanding data, reading papers, connecting weak signals, and deciding what to test next.
That requires deep focus and scientific context.
But R&D teams shouldn’t spend weeks navigating scattered information just to make one experimental decision.
This is why we built Elytra EXO Scope:
- Processes large volumes of scientific literature.
- Identifies key variables, trends, and meaningful relationships.
- Builds conceptual maps and experimental routes.
- Generates actionable insights to accelerate hypothesis development.
And it does this without replacing scientists, it amplifies them.
A co-researcher, not a substitute.
In this demo, EXO Scope analyzes 9 scientific papers and produces structured, actionable insights in ~15 minutes, instead of weeks.
Real benchmark:
Manual deep review of 100 scientific papers ≈ ~2 months of focused effort
With EXO Scope ≈ ~2 hours.
Freeing scientists to focus on higher-value thinking and accelerating time-to-market.
What this means for R&D teams:
- Less time searching for information.
- More time designing and validating experiments.
- Shorter innovation cycles.
- More confident and cost-efficient decisions.
At Elytra, we believe in a simple premise:
Science will remain science, just faster, smarter, and more accessible.
Thank you to everyone who has shared feedback and helped shape this tool. We are continuing to iterate and listen.
If your team works in formulation, fermentation, nutraceuticals, alternative proteins, or biomaterials, we’d love to show you how EXO Scope can plug into your R&D workflow and multiply your discovery capacity.
