BullFrog AI is a company that uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to advance the development of medicines for internal and external projects.

The company's platform technology, bfLEAP, is an AI and machine learning platform that addresses scalability and flexibility challenges in data analysis. This allows researchers and clinicians to gain a more precise, multi-dimensional understanding of their data.

BullFrog is using bfLEAP at various stages of development for its internal programs and through partnerships and collaborations to streamline data analysis in therapeutics development and reduce costs. The ultimate aim is to improve patients' lives who may not have access to the treatments they need.
