The Problem We Solve

Drug formulation shouldn't be guesswork

Finding compatible excipients for an Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) traditionally requires extensive lab testing — weeks of work, significant cost, and no guarantee of success.

PharmDEX changes this. Input any API compound and our ensemble ML models score its compatibility against a curated library of 300+ pharmaceutical excipients. Every prediction comes with a calibrated confidence interval — transparent, reproducible, and research-ready.

Capabilities

Everything you need for formulation research

Single Analysis

Enter two SMILES strings — one API, one excipient — and get an instant ML-scored compatibility result with 2D molecular visualisation and confidence intervals.

Batch Discovery

Compare one API against up to 20 excipient candidates at once. Results ranked in a leaderboard, exportable as PDF or CSV.

Deep Scan

Scan the entire master library against a single API. Get top-ranked excipients by ML confidence — ideal for early-stage research.

Community Contributions

Submit new excipient compounds to the database. Every submission undergoes expert review before going live — ensuring data quality across the platform.

PDF & CSV Export

Generate research-ready reports with molecular structures, scores, and confidence intervals for publications and submissions.

Flagship Feature

Rich, interpretable analysis outputs

Every single analysis produces a comprehensive suite of ML-driven visualisations — not just a score, but the full scientific reasoning behind it.

3D Molecular Interaction Viewer

Explore API–excipient interactions in an interactive 3D space. Atom-level cross-attention weights are visualised as coloured bonds — rotate, zoom, and pan to inspect every interaction.

  • Interactive orbit controls
  • Ball-and-stick atom rendering
  • Cross-attention bond overlay

Compatibility Gauge

Colour-coded speed gauge showing the compatibility score with a clear COMPATIBLE / INCOMPATIBLE verdict.

Interaction Hotspots

Per-atom activity bars revealing which atoms interact most strongly and with which partner atoms.

Molecular Interaction Map

Visual bridge diagram connecting API and excipient atoms, colour-coded by interaction strength — Strong, Moderate, or Weak.

Physicochemical Radar

8-axis spider chart comparing molecular properties — LogP, MW, TPSA, HBD/HBA, rotatable bonds, and more.

Bioavailability Radar

SwissADME-style 6-axis radar with an optimal drug-like zone overlay for both API and excipient profiles.

Physics Delta Features

Horizontal bar chart showing property differences between API and excipient — instantly spot where they diverge.

RFGE Rules Analysis

26 known functional-group risk pair rules evaluated against your input — triggered rules highlighted in red.

Druglikeness Table

Lipinski, Veber, and Egan rule checks with pass/fail status for every molecular property.

How It Works

Three steps to compatibility insight

01

Input Your Compound

Enter the SMILES notation for your API. PharmDEX validates and renders the 2D molecular structure for confirmation.

02

ML Model Inference

Ensemble models evaluate molecular descriptors, interaction profiles, and physics-based features in sub-second inference.

03

Get Scored Results

Receive compatibility scores with calibrated confidence intervals, molecular structures, and research-ready export options.
