Fermeate

Founders

Saurabh MalaniKevin Xu

Fermeate is an industrial biotechnology company that uses light-based optogenetics combined with artificial intelligence to control gene expression during fermentation, enabling industrial facilities to increase output by 60% to 300% without requiring new infrastructure. The plug-and-play platform retrofits existing stainless-steel fermenters at less than 5% of the cost of installing new tanks, with a typical payback period of under 11 months. Founded by two Princeton PhD alumni from the Avalos Lab, Fermeate is actively partnered with four global food and ingredient companies and is generating revenue through paid pilot programs.
