AI-powered robotics for scientific lab automation.
We’re building AI-powered systems that automate manual work in scientific labs using robotics. Scientists simply type their experiment in plain English. Zeon translates it into code and runs it on robotic arms (no coding required). By controlling robots with natural language, we’re enabling automation for every lab, every scientist, and every experiment. Zeon is lab-aware. It detects equipment, adapts to protocols, and moves autonomously between instruments to execute full workflows. We’re already working with labs at Stanford and UCSF to accelerate discovery - from running overnight nanoparticle fluorescence measurements to safely disposing of hundreds of bacterial samples. Zeon reclaims time for what matters most: the science.
Zeon Systems provides AI-powered robotic infrastructure to automate scientific experiments. They offer perception, control, and manipulation systems to turn flexible lab workflows into programmable environments for automation and AI-enabled discovery.
Zeon Systems builds an integrated robotic platform with real-time perception and state management of benchtop environments, flexible orchestration to create adaptive protocols with error handling, and closed-loop execution with continuous monitoring and data capture. The system supports running flexible, evolving experiments, executing protocols reliably, and enabling AI research in real-world environments beyond simulation.
Who it’s for: Scientists and researchers who run flexible or evolving laboratory experiments and are exploring AI-enabled automation and autonomous experimentation.

cofounder & CTO @ Zeon Systems (YC X25) accelerating science with robotics and AI. ---------------- been building software and ML for science labs basically all my adult life, doing computational research at IIT, Yale and working in biotech and pharma across India and the US.
We turn natural language into real-time lab automation.
Zeon Systems sells a hardware+software system that uses off-the-shelf robotics to execute lab experiments described in plain English. The software interprets protocols, detects tools with computer vision, and generates robotic code to run in real time for research labs, with pilots at UCSF and Stanford for fluorescence screening, automated pipetting, and biohazard disposal.
