Tailored specifically for the pharmaceutical sector, the platform allows pharmaceutical companies to dramatically reduce the time between product approval and effective market penetration.
"In today's fast-paced pharmaceutical landscape, speed to market can make or break success," said Larry Mickelberg, CEO and Founder of Axonal.AI. "Axonal.AI doesn't just incrementally improve the process – it fundamentally reimagines it.
We are using AI to turn complexity into clarity and connect the dots between market insights, patient engagement, and compliance faster than ever before, enhancing the speed at which our customers realize value."
Axonal.AI’s launch comes at a time when pharmaceutical companies are grappling with narrowing markets, increasing operational costs, stringent regulatory demands, and the patent cliff challenge. The McKinsey Global Institute estimates that gen AI could generate $18 billion to $30 billion of economic value in commercial functions at Pharmaceutical and MedTech companies.
The Agentic AI Collaborative Workspace, core to the company’s offering, deploys AI agents to autonomously manage critical functions such as market insights, analysis, regulatory compliance, monitoring, ideation and more.
