Located in a spacious 22,000-square-foot facility in Gachibowli, the CoE aims to accelerate the development of AI solutions tailored for the life sciences sector. This initiative combines the expertise of AI engineers and healthcare professionals to create regulated AI agents that enhance various processes, including drug discovery, clinical development, and patient care. The center currently employs over 300 staff members dedicated to these efforts.
PharmaOS, which operates on Altimetrik’s ALTi AIOS framework, features over 35 specialized agents designed to streamline tasks related to clinical evidence review, compliance, and data modernization. The platform emphasizes integration with existing enterprise systems while maintaining the necessary human oversight to ensure accountability.
According to Altimetrik's CEO, Raj Sundaresan, the strategic choice of Hyderabad is attributed to its robust pharmaceutical industry and technological talent. This development not only reinforces Altimetrik’s presence in India but also enhances its capabilities in global AI engineering, particularly following recent expansions in Pune and a significant increase in its workforce, which now exceeds 11,000 worldwide. The implications of this CoE could lead to faster innovation cycles in the life sciences, potentially transforming how companies approach drug development and patient engagement.
