Life sciences data based company

10 employees

Founded 2014

Unlimited ambition

CiteAb’s mission is to accelerate science through our world-class search engine and data services. By fundamentally changing the way researchers find products for their research, whilst also helping suppliers make more informed decisions, our database supports advancements into everything from covid-19, cancer diagnosis and Alzheimer’s treatment, to climate change and crop yield improvements.

Unlimited innovation

What sets CiteAb apart is our expertise in advanced AI-driven data collection combined with human reviewing, which enables us to accurately identify and understand reagent use in scientific publications. The result is a world-leading, purpose-built database that underpins all of our services.

We’ve been developing our technology and expanding our database for over a decade, continually adding in new categories of data and tools for scientists..

Unlimited potential

What began as a search engine for researchers has expanded to serve suppliers, financial organisations, publishers, and pharmaceutical/biotechnology companies with diverse data services.

Today, we work with hundreds of organisations – from global industry leaders to emerging innovators. Our researcher user base also continues to grow, with over 80,000 monthly users of our search platform from all of the top 10 universities and pharma companies.

Some of the most exciting examples of our data in use include: 

  • Supporting the development of a new cancer diagnostic assay through data licensing by an exciting biotech company

  • Helping scientists in four of the last ten Nobel Prize winning labs through our reagent search engine

  • Informing the development of antibody products that drive more reproducible science, with our market data being used by 4 of the top 5 antibody vendors

Unlimited talent

CiteAb is a diverse team of biologists, data scientists, and business development and marketing specialists. This combination of technical and strategic expertise enables us to better support the life science community. As the company has grown, our team of product managers have broadened our product offering, while our developers continue to innovate and advance our technology.

In our small team, we make sure everyone’s ideas are heard and valued, and each team member plays a key role in our success. We offer professional development opportunities – from mentoring to training courses – to support our employees as they grow.
