AI startup that's empowering the pharmaceutical industry smashes 2020 target
Fantastic news for OKRA, a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven analytics for Life Sciences with the announcement that it has just hit an important milestone, delivering 2 million validated predictions so far in 2020, smashing through its yearly target in just half the expected time. This highlights further OKRA’s achievements in empowering the pharmaceutical industry with explainable, real-time AI solutions.
A growing list of big Pharma clients who have accelerated digital transformation efforts amidst the pandemic have contributed to this incredible result. The company has now set an even more ambitious goal of delivering 5 million predictions by year end.
“Not only did we hit our target 6 months early, we achieved greater than 95% accuracy,” said Dr Loubna Bouarfa, CEO and Founder of OKRA. “We are excited that increasingly, top-10 Pharma clients are using OKRA’s AI to inform their decision-making. Reaching the 2 million mark shows real traction and motivates us to continue helping Life Science professionals regain power."OKRA has been developing AI solutions for Life Sciences since the end of 2015 and according to Dr Bouarfa is in a great position to transform healthcare as we know it. She adds that their AI is enabling life sciences to gain control, gain confidence and regain power”.
“Our best in class AI models and non rule based approach, combined with a hybrid explainability engine that delivers reasons behind why outcomes are being achieved, has allowed us to develop learning systems that are the new digital brain for Pharma companies,” said Dr Bouarfa.
