{"id":92466,"title":"Convexia: World’s First AI-Maximalist Pharma Company","tagline":"AI agents that search and evaluate early-stage drugs","body":"Hey 👋 We’re [Ayaan](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ayaan-parikh/) and [Rahul](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rahulvijayan28/) — Stanford CS dropouts who’ve exited 3 startups together.\n\nOur 4th startup is [Convexia](https://www.convexia.bio/), an AI-maximalist pharma company. We buy drugs, run clinical trials, and then sell for profit.\n\n🎥 [Launch Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFaM-ceSGok)\n\n# **Problem**\n\nPharma is the most bloated, antiquated trillion-dollar industry on the planet.\n\nLife-saving drugs are overlooked, abandoned, or shelved because diligence is still done by hand. Slow, costly, and outdated.\n\n# **Our Solution**\n\nWe use agents to operate 10x faster and 20x leaner. Convexia’s AI agents autonomously handle:\n\n* **Sourcing** – Find hidden early-stage drugs from around the world.\n* **Scientific diligence** – Evaluate drug viability with leading computational biology tools\n* **Market analysis** – Model market size, competition, and IP positioning\n* **Clinical operations** – Simulate trials, flag CMC issues, and discover CROs\n* **Business development** – Match each drug to the right buyer\n\nTest our agents here: https://www.convexia.bio/playground \n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=92466\u0026key=user_uploads/2433930/cb571daa-a456-472c-a8fe-b370b2e3b50e)\n\n# **Our Ask**\n\nBefore buying and selling drugs ourselves, we are running pilots with early customers who want to accelerate their search and evaluation processes.\n\n📅 Book a call [here](https://calendly.com/ayaan-convexia/demo). \n\nHere’s who we’re looking to meet—see if anyone’s in your network [here](https://www.linkedin.com/search/results/people/?currentCompany=%5B%22434006%22%2C%2221263%22%2C%2211127960%22%2C%2277579063%22%2C%2218268402%22%2C%223204230%22%2C%2234756183%22%2C%222673956%22%2C%2210317593%22%2C%2286884606%22%2C%2238336%22%2C%2219031898%22%2C%224990022%22%2C%221337177%22%2C%228013%22%2C%2226195%22%2C%226761%22%2C%22617961%22%2C%2212150%22%2C%2248171%22%2C%2211647%22%2C%226866%22%2C%2213476%22%2C%225239%22%2C%227635%22%2C%2233408697%22%2C%223235%22%2C%221893%22%2C%225482%22%2C%222068%22%2C%221663%22%2C%221304385%22%2C%221773%22%2C%221603%22%2C%221399%22%2C%2291149342%22%2C%221642%22%2C%2216233341%22%2C%221485%22%2C%221486%22%2C%222227%22%2C%221406%22%2C%222276%22%2C%221602%22%2C%221204%22%2C%222281734%22%2C%2229088045%22%2C%221185%22%2C%229215024%22%5D\u0026industry=%5B%2215%22%2C%2212%22%5D\u0026network=%5B%22F%22%5D\u0026origin=FACETED_SEARCH\u0026sid=a*t).\n\n* Small/mid pharma companies (Incyte, Nimbus, Roivant SubCos)\n* Biotech VCs (Versant, Atlas, RA Capital)\n* Computational biotechs (Recursion, Insitro, Owkin)\n* Operators who’ve brought drugs to market\n\n# Reach us: [founders@convexia.bio](mailto:founders@convexia.bio)","slug":"O3O-convexia-world-s-first-ai-maximalist-pharma-company","created_at":"2025-07-26T01:34:30.747Z","updated_at":"2026-05-25T05:33:25.934Z","total_vote_count":33,"url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/O3O-convexia-world-s-first-ai-maximalist-pharma-company","share_image_url":"https://www.ycombinator.com/media/?type=post\u0026id=92466\u0026key=user_uploads/2433930/cb571daa-a456-472c-a8fe-b370b2e3b50e","company":{"id":30747,"name":"Convexia","slug":"convexia","url":"https://convexia.bio","logo":"https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/c68bf871c0fe363c6048343df283d9282ab990f4.png","batch":"Summer 2025","industry":"Healthcare","tags":["AI-powered Drug Discovery","Biotech","Drug Delivery"],"search_path":"https://bookface.ycombinator.com/company/30747"}}
