Harell Data

Secure data sharing for science AI

Overview

Harell Data builds an intelligent infrastructure platform to accelerate scientific AI by unlocking access to proprietary datasets in the physical sciences. It helps data owners securely share high-value datasets with AI modelers through an end-to-end ecosystem where compute is brought to the data and the raw data never leaves a secure environment. The platform includes on-demand GPU compute, fine-tuning infrastructure, inference pods, and data lineage, enabling end-to-end training and deployment workflows. Data creators earn a direct share of the compute revenue generated when their datasets are used for model training, creating a practical monetization path beyond royalties. Early partners include A-Alpha Bio and Adaptive Biotechnologies, with the goal of reducing data fragmentation that slows large-scale AI models in areas like drug discovery and material science.
