"Cytely's smart microscopy platform is designed to be hardware-agnostic, turning traditional microscopes into real-time data engines. By eliminating manual bottlenecks, the platform enables laboratories to obtain statistically robust results in minutes, a process that previously took months. "Their vision is truly transformative. We're thrilled to lead this round and support the mission to make smart, data‑centric microscopy accessible to every lab," said Louise Lachmann, Partner at Ugly Duckling Ventures."
"Traditional microscopy relies on image-based analysis, which is slow and yields limited data. Cytely's platform changes this by making data the primary output, delivering standardized, quantitative, and reproducible results. This shift allows researchers to make faster, more reliable decisions, accelerating the pace of discovery."
""Scientists have been constrained by workflows built for images, not data. Cytely transforms any microscope into a real-time measurement instrument, closing the loop from acquisition to decision on an experiment-day timescale rather than a grant cycle," says Philip Nordenfelt, Cytely co-founder & CEO"
Cytely raised €3 million in a round led by Ugly Duckling Ventures to expand its AI-driven microscopy platform internationally. The platform is hardware-agnostic and converts traditional microscopes into real-time data engines, removing manual bottlenecks and enabling statistically robust results in minutes instead of months. The system shifts microscopy from image-based workflows to data-first outputs, delivering standardized, quantitative, and reproducible measurements that accelerate experimental decisions. Planned developments include making the AI interface more intuitive, adding collaboration features, and expanding operations in the U.S. and Asia. The long-term aim is a global discovery system that predicts outcomes and automates research tasks.
