Digital Science and SciBite form strategic partnership for life sciences text mining

Some exciting news for Digital Science on the text mining front. We recently signed a strategic partnership agreement with SciBite, a UK startup that has put together an impressive scientific news and alerts service focused on drug discovery. SciBite is highly complementary to SureChem, our patent chemistry search offering, and we will be looking at ways of quickly combining them, particularly the direct data API services they both offer.

But this partnership is also significant in that it marks the expansion of Digital Science text mining beyond patents and chemistry to other data sources and biology. This agreement gives SciBite and Digital Science access to each others annotation and data integration technologies and content, enabling us to create a world class life sciences text mining pipeline.

In addition to SureChem and SciBite, there are multiple Digital Science products that would benefit from this capability and as you might imagine, there are plenty of conversations under way already.
