The Problem

Every life sciences connection
starts with the wrong data.

Whether you're partnering an asset, investing in a company, winning a CRO client, advising on a mandate, scouting an acquisition, or selling technology into pharma — every connection turns on timing. Yet the intelligence to act is scattered across expensive databases, ClinicalTrials.gov, EDGAR, FDA calendars, and press releases. Teams spend hours assembling a view that's already stale, and end up reacting to opportunities they read about in the news — after everyone else.

aktiv8 replaces that patchwork with one real-time intelligence and connection workspace — for BD and corporate development, VC and crossover investors, CROs and CDMOs, regulatory consultants, technology vendors, and the banks and advisors who serve them all.

The Solution

See everything. Match instantly.
Activate Infinite Possibilities.

01 — CORPUS

One living corpus.

Every company, pipeline, asset, catalyst, trial, funding round, investor, and signal — in a single, continuously-refreshed view. Every source timestamped.

02 — AI

AI built for life sciences.

Hakase routes every question to the best model, grounds every answer in verified corpus data, and stress-tests high-stakes outputs with a second model. Tuned for biotech intelligence — not a general-purpose chatbot.

03 — CONNECTION

Signal to action in three clicks.

From a PDUFA date or a funding round to a verified contact and a personalised, signal-aware message — without leaving the platform.

Coverage across the full drug lifecycle

From first preprint
to post-market.

aktiv8 tracks activity at every stage — so you connect at the right moment, not after it's passed.

◎ VC / Crossover Investor

Spot the Series B six weeks early

A crossover fund tracks 40 oncology companies across Phase 1/2. aktiv8 flags that three hit primary endpoints in the same week — before any press release. HAKASE identifies which has the strongest IP and no lead investor yet. The fund term-sheets before the round is announced.

Result: Lead investor position secured before competitive process
◈ CRO / CDMO

Win the Phase 2 contract before the RFP

A mid-size CRO monitors 200 pre-Phase 2 companies. aktiv8 signals that a rare disease biotech just closed a Series A. HAKASE notes their lead asset has no CRO named. The BD director reaches out with a tailored proposal six weeks before the formal RFP is issued.

Result: Sole-source contract, no competitive bid
◉ Biotech BD

Find a commercialisation partner in 48 hours

A biotech receives FDA approval on a Friday. By Monday they need a shortlist of co-promotion partners. HAKASE returns 12 companies with the right focus, no conflicting product, and active BD mandates. Verified contacts are pulled in one click. Three meetings are booked by Wednesday.

Result: Partner shortlist and first meetings in under 72 hours
◐ Regulatory Consultant

Find every pharma expanding into a new market

A regulatory consultancy targets GCC pharma companies seeking US or EU market entry. HAKASE returns every company in the region with a marketed product, an active pipeline, and no named regulatory partner for international filings. 15 high-fit targets in under two minutes.

Result: 15 qualified targets identified and outreach drafted in one session
◑ Bank / M&A Advisor

Build a target list for a buy-side mandate overnight

An investment bank receives a buy-side mandate for a large pharma seeking CNS acquisitions. aktiv8 filters for Phase 2/3 CNS assets, funded in the last 24 months, with no announced acquirer. HAKASE generates a one-page brief on each. A 20-company longlist is ready for the next morning.

Result: 20-company longlist with AI briefs delivered overnight
◒ Pharma Corporate Development

Never miss an acquisition window

A large pharma's corp dev team monitors 30 potential targets. aktiv8 alerts them when one runs a Phase 3 miss — before the stock reacts. HAKASE flags the company's cash runway is 9 months. The corp dev lead calls the CEO the same afternoon.

Result: Acquisition initiated at trough valuation, 6 months ahead of banker outreach
The Outreach Engine

Most databases stop at the data.
aktiv8 helps you close the deal.

Finding the company is the easy part. aktiv8 gives you the verified email to reach the right decision-maker, drafts a personalised, signal-aware message with AI, and tracks every follow-up like a CRM — all from one platform.

Latest signals, fetched for you.

Hakase continuously pulls catalysts, trial updates, funding rounds, and press — matched to companies the moment they happen.

02 — UNDERSTAND

Full context, instantly.

Every signal resolves to a full company profile — pipeline, funding, catalysts, and an AI-identified BD angle. Know why this company, why now.

03 — REACH

Verified email. AI-drafted message.

Email-verified decision-maker contacts, plus a personalised signal-aware draft from Hakase. Tone controls. One click to send.

04 — FOLLOW UP

A CRM that remembers.

Every outreach is logged. Move deals through stages, assign owners, set next actions. Opportunities don't go cold.

★ HAKASE ENGINE

The AI engine behind
every life sciences decision.

A multi-model orchestration layer built exclusively for life sciences intelligence. A supervisor routes each task — match, report, question, outreach — to the right model, grounds every answer in verified corpus facts, and stress-tests high-stakes outputs with a second model before you see them.

Multi-model orchestration

The best model for each task, routed by a supervisor — with automatic fallback if any provider degrades.

Grounded, never guessed

Every output is built strictly from verified corpus facts. Fabricated figures are stripped before you see them.

Dual-model verification

High-stakes outputs like deal matches are generated by one model and stress-tested by another.

Compounds over time

Every report and match becomes proprietary training data. The engine sharpens over time — on our data, never yours.
