We just led the 4.5M seed round of Potato. Because we at @drapervc believe that accelerating science, and unlocking runaway knowledge production, is a bigger unlock than the internet itself.
@readysetpotato 🥔 is building autonomous AI scientists: agents that can read research, form hypotheses, design experiments, and run them across code and chemistry.
This is how we 10x the pace of life sciences research and unlock discoveries that would’ve taken decades - at a fraction of the cost.
This is end-to-end, closed-loop science.
Faster, cheaper, and infinitely scalable.
→ Literature reviews, automated
→ Protocols, generated
→ Experiments, executed
→ Results, reproducible
Potato is already powering research at MIT, Stanford, Harvard, Caltech, Berkeley, and beyond.
Congrats to Nick Edwards, PhD (@Nick___Edwards) and Ryan Kosai (@rkosai). Your vision has the potential to redefine how humanity discovers.
