Moka Bio is a deeptech company that operates an AI-powered bioinformatics platform designed to accelerate the discovery, development, and protection of natural bioactive compounds. The company utilizes a proprietary AI engine, MokaDex, which acts as a digital architect to simulate extraction and formulation processes, predict mechanisms of action, and identify novel molecules from plant sources. By digitizing the chemical potential of the plant kingdom, the platform enables an in silico laboratory environment where thousands of plant extracts can be tested computationally. This approach allows the company to index large datasets of botanical information and identify intellectual property opportunities before physical laboratory validation begins.

This technology addresses critical inefficiencies in drug and ingredient discovery by significantly reducing the time, cost, and experimental risks associated with traditional bioprospecting. Moka Bio focuses on unlocking the therapeutic potential of native Latin American plants for use across the health, beauty, and food industries. By providing data-driven bioprospecting reports, the company helps industry clients streamline their research and development cycles. The platform currently supports large-scale data analysis, indexing over 30,000 plants and delivering actionable insights, with the company actively securing its proprietary developments through patent filings to build long-term value for its partners.
