Araceli Biosciences Closes $11.2M Seed Financing to Change the Pace of Drug Discovery

Araceli Biosciences Closes $11.2M Seed Financing to Change the Pace of Drug Discovery

May 9, 2025 Craig Etkin

PORTLAND, Ore., April 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Araceli Biosciences, a pioneering biotechnology company revolutionizing high-content imaging and AI-powered analysis, today announced the successful completion of its Seed funding round, raising $7.2 million in new equity investment and converting $4.0 million in SAFEs, bringing total financing since Araceli’s spinout from Phoseon Technology to $11.2M. This funding will accelerate Araceli’s commercial expansion, scale manufacturing, and advance its next-generation AI-driven product offerings in high-content imaging.

Disrupting the Imaging Bottleneck in Drug Discovery
The Endeavor® High Content Imaging System is Araceli’s flagship platform, designed for ultra high-throughput imaging with exceptional data—delivering results up to 40x faster than traditional systems across a broad range of cellular assays. Paired with Clairvoyance, Araceli’s AI-driven analysis software, the platform delivers rapid, actionable insights that streamline workflows, reduce experimental errors, and dramatically speed up drug discovery timelines.

While advances in automation, genomics, and machine learning have transformed drug discovery, high-content imaging remains one of the slowest steps and a major bottleneck. Traditional imaging systems lack the speed and scalability required for modern AI-driven pipelines and multiplexed assays. Araceli addresses this critical gap with a platform purpose-built for speed, scale, and seamless AI integration—enabling researchers to generate more data, faster, with greater precision.

Strategic Use of Funds
Proceeds from the Seed round will support:

  • Scaling operational infrastructure to meet growing demand
  • Advancing market applications, including personalized medicine
  • Advancing the platform’s hardware and software for real-time analysis capabilities
  • Expanding marketing and business development efforts

“The future of AI-driven drug discovery and personalized medicine depends on imaging and analysis that happens in real time,” said Matt Beaudet, CEO of Araceli Biosciences. “Minutes and seconds matter. The old model of waiting hours—or even days—for data is over. At Araceli, we’re building a platform that moves at the speed of science.”

Bill Cortelyou, Board Chairman and lead investor, added, “Araceli’s breakthrough technology, experienced leadership, and clear market demand position the company well for significant growth potential.”

About Araceli Biosciences
Araceli Biosciences is a biotechnology company focused on accelerating drug discovery through innovations in high-content imaging and AI-driven analysis. With its flagship Endeavor® system and Clairvoyance software, Araceli empowers scientists to generate actionable insights faster and more efficiently across a wide range of biological applications.

AI might be great at helping engineers write code, but it’s creating a new problem – all that code still needs to be reviewed by humans. CodeAnt AI is stepping in with a solution that uses AI to tackle the review process itself, raising $2 million in seed funding to help engineering teams move faster without sacrificing quality or security. The funding, CodeAnt AI’s first institutional round, values the company at $20 million. It will be used to expand the engineering and business development teams and to scale CodeAnt AI’s code quality and application security platform. For engineering teams already feeling the pressure to ship faster, the investment comes at the perfect time. The funding round was led by Y Combinator, VitalStage Ventures, and Uncorrelated Ventures, and with participation from DeVC, Transpose Platform, Entrepreneur First, and a number of marquee angel investors.

In a statement, Amartya Jha, Co-founder and CEO of CodeAnt AI said, “As AI-driven coding becomes widespread, the real bottleneck isn’t writing code — it’s reviewing it,” “Today, when a developer submits a change request, it often sits idle for hours or even days waiting for peer review. And even when a reviewer does pick it up, they rarely have full context of the code change. This is a critical risk point: most software bugs and vulnerabilities slip through at the peer review stage, where issues could have been caught early and cheaply.”

As AI continues to transform how code gets written, CodeAnt AI is positioning itself as the bridge to a future where code can be both rapidly created and confidently deployed. The founders envision a world where AI doesn’t just help developers write code faster, but also ensures that every line shipped to production is secure, efficient, and ready for the real world – giving engineering teams the confidence to move at the speed their businesses demand.

Building on its 120-year tradition of caring for Northern Californians, Sutter Health today announced a transformational plan to expand access to its comprehensive, integrated and coordinated high-quality care across the greater East Bay region. As part of this phased approach, Sutter will construct a flagship campus in the City of Emeryville featuring a regional destination ambulatory care complex and a new medical center with an initial capacity of up to 200 beds and room for future expansion. The plan prioritizes recruiting primary care and specialty physicians, reducing barriers for patients when scheduling appointments and obtaining referrals for care, and investing in programs and partnerships to strengthen the healthcare workforce.  

In a statement Warner Thomas, president and CEO of Sutter Health said, “Our Emeryville campus project represents one of the most significant investments we’re making across our system over the next decade and is part of our broader vision to meet the community’s growing demand for expanded access to our services across the East Bay footprint,” “Too many people face challenges in accessing the care they need. At Sutter, we’re committed to breaking down those barriers—expanding care facilities, enhancing imaging capabilities, improving online appointment scheduling and collaborating with the Sutter East Bay Medical Group and our community physician partners to attract more primary and specialty care physicians. 

 
Sutter is investing more than $1 billion to expand services across the East Bay, ensuring patients will be able to conveniently reach comprehensive care within a 15-minute drive from home or work. At the heart of this regional expansion is the newly acquired, 12-acre Sutter Emeryville Campus at Horton and 53rd streets, which will serve as a key healthcare destination.  When complete, the approximately 1.3 million square foot, new medical campus in the heart of Emeryville, will offer outpatient services at two existing buildings totaling approximately 530,000 square feet, at 5555 Hollis Street and 5300 Chiron Street, plus acute care services at a newly constructed medical center adjacent to the Hollis Street property. The Sutter Emeryville campus will also offer medical office space and parking at an existing 1,992-space parking garage.
