Matwings Technology

Matwings is an AI-driven full-stack protein R&D platform company. By building an unparalleled ultra-large-scale protein sequence dataset/label library, Matwings has developed a general large model for protein design on this foundation, enabling precise design of functional proteins directly tailored to industrial demands.

Centered on its self-developed large protein model as the core engine, Matwings has developed a full-stack AI protein R&D platform by integrating scientific research intelligent agents and automated laboratory equipment. The platform covers the entire workflow: market/literature/patent research, molecular design, small-scale validation, pilot-scale process optimization, and ultimately production scale-up. By fully integrating AI into industrial application scenarios, Matwings breaks through the cognitive boundaries of existing human experts, enabling faster and superior development of diverse biological products with proteins as the underlying chips, such as innovative drugs, healthcare products, agricultural products, functional foods, and bio-based materials.

Matwings has been successively honored with multiple titles, including the National High-Tech Enterprise, Shanghai Specialized, Refined, Unique and Innovative SME, and Emerging Enterprise in Minhang District. It has also received awards such as the National First Prize in the "Maker in China" AIGC Special Competition, the National Second Prize in the "Maker in China" Enterprise Category, inclusion in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's first batch of typical AI application cases in biomanufacturing, and the Bronze Award in the Fifth "Shanghai Talents Global Innovation & Entrepreneurship Competition.” To date, Matwings has completed four rounds of financing, with investors including renowned institutions such as CNPC Kunlun Capital, Yonghua Capital, Shanghai Engine Community, Qiming Venture Partners, 3E Bioventures Capital, and GSR United Capital.
