Authoring documents for life sciences in minutes, not months.
Artos is an AI-based document-drafting platform that helps life sciences companies turn their data into critical documents in minutes. These submissions currently take months and are the final hurdle before life sciences companies are allowed to sell their product.
Artos offers an AI-powered, end-to-end document creation and management platform for life sciences, catering to the full CTD document lifecycle from raw data to final drafts. It positions itself as more than a drafting tool, with an emphasis on collaboration, traceability, and regulatory alignment for pharma, biotech, medical devices, and similar sectors.
Generative AI solution tailored for life sciences medical writing. Provides document drafting, custom templates, downstream visualization, source traceability, audit logs, search, automations, and team collaboration across roles (medical writing, CMC, regulatory, IT, engineering). Supports end-to-end CTD pyramid documents (INDs, NDAs, BLAs) from raw data to final draft, with data syncing across devices/platforms, and role-based workflows for diverse teams. Includes tools for medical writing, CMC, regulatory affairs, regulatory intelligence, IT, and engineering to automate and manage the document lifecycle.
