    Benchling puts agent teams inside R&D workflows: in a recombinant protein foundry, agents draft the design, place the order, run instruments and write the report

    At Benchtalk 2026, Benchling launched Science Foundries, where teams of AI agents work alongside scientists across a full R&D workflow rather than speeding up a single step. In a recombinant protein foundry, one agent drafts the cloning design, another orders from a CRO and calls Benchling Automation to run instruments, and an Analysis Agent writes the report, with a scientist signing off at every critical decision. The product is in preview for customers, and the company is building foundries with customers across target validation, screening, method development and biologics production.

    Benchling launches Science Foundries: agent teams take over the handoffs from design to order to bench to analysis

    Benchling released Science Foundries, a way for scientists and AI agents to divide work over the same scientific data and context and run processes such as protein production, lead optimization or process improvement end to end. A user picks a process or goal, then sets which steps agents run and where scientists must approve; agents execute and monitor work, coordinate handoffs and surface key decisions. In a high-throughput antibody example, design, cloning, lab and analysis agents connect to models, a CRO, lab automation and training data, so assay results finished late at night are analyzed before the scientist starts the day.
