Silencing Bacterial
Genes with AI-Designed RNA
We create sRNA blueprints that shut down harmful genes—accelerating discovery across health, agriculture, and industrial biotech.
Partner With UsRooted in scientific precision, powered by AI innovation.
At Bacto, we fuse deep molecular biology with cutting-edge artificial intelligence to design small RNAs (sRNAs) that silence bacterial genes with pinpoint accuracy; transforming the way we approach plant health and microbial threats.
Precision-designed molecules for bacterial gene silencing
Custom sRNAs developed using proprietary AI models trained on genomic and functional data.
Collaboration with agri-biotech, academia, and regulators
We bridge science and industry to accelerate real-world deployment in crops.
Scalable platform built for rapid iteration and regulatory clarity
Designed to adapt across geographies, crops, and regulatory environments.
How it Works
We combine advanced AI models with biological validation to design synthetic sRNAs that silence specific bacterial genes—paving the way for targeted, effective interventions.

Key Benefits
Targeted Intervention
Our sRNAs are designed to silence only essential or virulence-associated bacterial genes—avoiding harm to beneficial microbes or surrounding ecosystems.
Scalable by Design
The AI engine allows rapid sRNA design across different bacterial strains or species, making Bacto adaptable to shifting agricultural and clinical threats.
Science-Backed & Field-Ready
By streamlining the pathway from laboratory discovery to market introduction, we help ensure that life-saving and life-improving medicines reach patients faster.
