Why we exist

For too many couples, male-factor infertility remains a hidden challenge to starting a family. We develop biologically-inspired technologies that give IVF laboratories faster tools, with one simple goal: to help more couples have a child of their own.

Up to 10 to 20%

of men who present to an infertility clinic have azoospermia

Our technologies

SpermGuide

A biomimetic microfluidic sperm selection device, designed to replicate the intricate trajectory of natural sperm selection through the female reproductive tract.

In development. Provided for Research Use Only in current collaborations.

Built on peer-reviewed science

Time per dish

39%

less median search time per dish (35.8 to 21.8 min) with AI assistance (P < 0.0001)

Goss et al. 2026, Reprod. Biomed. Online 53(5):105873

Time per sperm

5.50min

median time to find each sperm with AI assistance, vs 10.85 min unassisted (P = 0.001), in the 18 patients where sperm were found with both methods

Goss et al. 2026, Reprod. Biomed. Online 53(5):105873

Pre-clinical recall

92%

sperm recall, vs 86.5% for a trained embryologist on still images (precision 89.6% vs 98.2%)

Goss et al. 2024, Reprod. Biomed. Online 49(1):103910

SpermSearch.AI highlights regions of interest with possible sperm for the embryologist, who confirms each candidate, assesses the sperm and selects sperm for injection. Final identification and selection of sperm remain the responsibility of the user.
