Better tools for better biology.
Waffoo AI is an AI workspace for life-science and biomedical researchers. Our mission is to help the world find, understand, and create good science.
Better science is how we build a better world.
To create new knowledge, you must first understand what's already known. But humanity's hard-won insights are locked inside millions of papers, protocols, and datasets. Navigating this maze is overwhelming for researchers and out of reach for anyone outside the lab.
We're building the best way to search, synthesize, and act on biomedical evidence — so researchers can get back to science, not searches, and every lab can access evidence, not opinion.
We want to see a world with superhuman researchers and a new generation of evidence-driven clinicians. That's the world we're building at Waffoo AI.
Led by a scientist who has lived the problem.

“Despite billions invested in AI, it wasn’t translating into real impact in scientific workflows. I founded Waffoo AI to close that gap — to move AI from promise to implementation in life sciences.”
After working as a Senior Scientist at AstraZeneca and Gilead, and in AI biotech innovation, I saw firsthand a critical gap between AI's promise and its real-world use in science.
As a Saudi scientist, I'm inspired by Vision 2030's investment in AI and healthcare — but investment alone doesn't create innovation. Scientists do. My vision is for Waffoo AI to become the bridge that enables scientists across the MENA region to operate, innovate, and lead globally.
