GreenCat — AI-Driven Catalyst Discovery

Pamir Ventures portfolio company GreenCat is reinventing catalysis discovery, pairing large AI models with autonomous, self-driving labs to find better catalysts faster — and greener — across petrochemicals, pharma, and industrial chemistry.

Catalysts sit underneath most of the modern economy: the majority of manufactured goods touch a catalytic process somewhere in their production. Yet discovering a new one has historically taken years of trial and error. GreenCat's platform searches formulation space computationally — across the entire periodic table — and validates candidates in automated labs, compressing discovery timelines from years to months.

Out of Cambridge, the company is already engaging some of the largest players in chemicals, petrochemicals, and pharma — turning what began as theoretical science into an industrial platform.
