Citrine | Company

Citrine provides the best in class AI platform for product development, that will be used by everyone in your organization, and supported by an experienced team of experts with 10 years’ pedigree helping customers take AI to scale.

About us:

Citrine Informatics is the creator of the Citrine Platform, the best-in-class AI platform for data-driven materials and chemicals development. The platform is designed to be used by everyone in your organization, and it is supported by an experienced team of experts with 10 years’ pedigree helping customers take artificial intelligence to scale.

Citrine Informatics began in 2013 by Greg Mulholland and Bryce Meredig, graduates of the Stanford Graduate School of Business. They recognized that materials development can be challenging even for very large companies, and that the path from initial R&D to product development and manufacturing at scale can take years. The founders set out to build a system that would combine smart materials data infrastructure and AI, which accelerates development of cutting-edge materials, facilitates product portfolio optimization, and codifies a company’s research intellectual property, enabling its reuse and preventing its loss.

Mission and Values:

We envision a world with clean materials, used well. Our company mission is to enable a greener, more efficient world by accelerating the development and deployment of next-generation materials and chemicals.

In our work and our company culture, we rely on certain core values to shape the way we work and treat our colleagues and customers. These include:

  • Execution Bias (taking decisive action, following through on commitments)
  • Growth (supporting learning and development that moves us forward)
  • Data-driven (making good decisions based on data, and iterating to improve)
  • Ownership (taking responsibility like the owners we are, acting with integrity)
  • Inclusion (striving to create a welcoming, inclusive culture that values diversity)
  • Customer-First (being tirelessly committed to creating value for our customers)
  • Sustainability (helping to develop products that are critical for our future)
