Benchling Launches Science Foundries for End-to-End Agentic R&D

San Francisco – October 15, 2026 -- Benchling launched Science Foundries, a product that lets R&D teams run entire scientific processes with agents and scientists working from the same data, and made it available to its customers the same day.

Teams select a process or goal, such as producing proteins, optimizing a lead or improving a manufacturing process. They then define which steps agents run and where scientists must approve. Agents execute and monitor work, coordinate handoffs and flag key decisions to scientists.

Benchling has spent the past 18 months building AI into its platform. The company says agents are the fastest-growing capability it has released. Science Foundries extend agents from individual tasks to complete workflows.
