An artificial intelligence engineering company called Altimetrik recently established a Healthcare and Life Sciences Centre of Excellence in Hyderabad to create artificial intelligence tools for use by the pharma and healthcare sectors. The first solution to be developed at this center is PharmaOS, which is an agentic artificial intelligence system that is based on the company's ALTi AIOS operating system.
According to Altimetrik, PharmaOS was created to enable life sciences organizations to design a governed AI workflow in just one week, provided that the problem, data availability, and scope of work were all set. This framework unites AI engineers with life sciences experts to create solutions that comply with regulations and have traceability back to source data.
The facility is based in Altimetrik's 22,000-square-foot office building in Phoenix Equinox in Gachibowli, close to HITEC City. The office hosts more than 300 employees. Their efforts will be focused on drug discovery, development, regulatory and commercial operations, manufacturing, patients' engagement, and care delivery.
PharmaOS comprises over 35 purpose-built agents and accelerators for commercial operations, clinical and regulatory evidence review, manufacturing and quality, responsible AI, and data modernisation. The PharmaOS framework is designed to link AI agents with enterprise processes and data, as well as to track the evidence for their outcomes and keep humans in control.
The possible areas of application of this product are clinical study report analysis, GxP validation, and batch release readiness. This platform works within enterprise AI ecosystems such as Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI. Organizations have the freedom to choose models for themselves.
This one-week delivery model will enable the client to assess the application and decide on further investment. This procedure includes security, observability, source traceability, quality control, human rights in decision-making, and performance indicators.
Ramji Vasudevan, Head of Healthcare and Life Sciences at Altimetrik, said the company planned to build a wider portfolio of solutions in collaboration with clients. Dr Vivek Jha, Global Healthcare Pharma Leader and Co-Founder of DANRICX, said traceable evidence and human oversight were important to the responsible use of AI in pharmaceutical workflows.
According to Raj Sundaresan, CEO of Altimetrik, this center will assist companies in creating AI applications that will be appropriate according to industry standards, regulations, and data trust. In his opinion, the experience of the city of Hyderabad in the pharmaceutical industry and IT makes this place appropriate for the project.
Altimetrik said the Hyderabad center will collaborate with pharma companies and contract research organizations, leveraging local experience in clinical, regulatory, quality, and engineering areas. The opening comes after expansion in Pune and brings an industry-specific center to the company's India portfolio.
Altimetrik is a company that provides services for enterprises that need to transform their systems and data as well as business processes using artificial intelligence engineering and software engineering. This is done via the company's ALTi AIOS platform, which integrates artificial intelligence with engineering.
