About therapiAI
Shaping the Intelligent Future of CDMOs with AI
Brand Story
Making AI a Trusted Part of the Pharmaceutical CDMO Industry
therapiAI was founded in 2018 by experts in biotechnology, artificial intelligence, pharmaceutical engineering, quality systems, and intellectual property.
Through extensive field research and on-site interviews, we observed a consistent pattern across manufacturing facilities: although pharmaceutical companies generate vast amounts of data, they struggle with fragmented systems, inconsistent formats, complex workflows, and limited modularization. Combined with long experimental cycles and strict regulatory requirements, most AI tools on the market fail to create real value in GMP environments.
We chose a more difficult path—focusing on the most demanding and complex segment of the industry: pharmaceutical CDMOs.
This decision came not from market size, but from a clear mission: to build AI Agents that truly understand biomanufacturing environments, deploy quickly, and earn trust, defining a new standard for intelligent pharmaceutical operations.
To achieve this, we developed a multi-model AI engine combined with a generative-AI platform that allows CDMOs to assemble and deploy their own AI Agents like modular components.
Our AI is not just an analytical tool—it interacts with real-time data, participates in decision-making, and works alongside domain experts as an intelligent partner.
We believe trust is earned through outcomes. Lasting value is only created when AI genuinely solves problems on the production floor.
Today, therapiAI has partnered with more than 30 pharmaceutical CDMOs and continues to expand globally—building on our R&D base in Taiwan, establishing operations in Japan, and collaborating deeply with leading CDMO organizations.
Our ambition goes beyond serving individual clients. We aim to build the world’s AI Agent platform for pharmaceutical manufacturing.
This is not a race of technology, but a long-term effort centered on trust, expertise, and the future standards of the industry.
therapiAI is advancing at our own deliberate pace—reshaping the relationship between CDMOs and AI so that AI becomes not just a tool, but a trusted part of the industry.
Our Core Philosophy
We are committed to delivering practical, trustworthy, and compliance-ready AI solutions that create measurable value for pharmaceutical CDMOs.

therapiAI Founder & CEO
Michael Han
In 2018, I and a group of partners with years of experience in biotechnology, artificial intelligence, pharmaceutical technology, quality engineering, and intellectual property founded therapiAI. We have a simple but challenging goal—to bring AI into the pharmaceutical industry to solve real-world problems, rather than just showcasing technology.
We have observed that while most pharmaceutical companies possess vast amounts of data, inconsistent formats, complex processes, and highly specialized parameters make it difficult to implement AI tools. Furthermore, the pharmaceutical industry is not merely a technology industry; it is also highly regulatory and places extreme emphasis on safety and trust. These characteristics render typical AI solutions largely ineffective.
Therefore, we chose to focus on the CDMO field, which has the highest barriers to entry and is the most complex. Because I believe that if we can succeed here, we can create a truly viable AI Agent platform for the entire pharmaceutical industry.
Founder's Mentality
BUILT ON TRUST, DRIVEN BY RESULTS
From the beginning, we developed our own multi-model AI engine so that every pharmaceutical manufacturer could deploy modular AI Agents tailored to their workflows.
These Agents do more than analyze data—they participate in process tasks, optimize parameters, support regulatory compliance, and become part of day-to-day decision-making.
I insist on a “non-centralized, non-retained” data architecture, because AI can only be trusted—and used long-term—when it respects data security and regulatory requirements.
We do not pursue flashy technology, nor are we driven by commercial rhetoric.
The therapiAI model is simple: collaborate based on real, measurable results.
「What truly transforms industries is not technology, but trust.」
— Michael Han
Today, therapiAI works with leading pharmaceutical CDMOs in Taiwan and Japan.
Our vision is to expand from Asia to the world and become a key platform for AI-driven transformation across global pharmaceutical manufacturing.
