Terray Therapeutics focuses on discovering and developing small molecule drugs by combining wet-lab experiments with AI-driven methods. It builds a large, high-quality dataset of target-ligand binding measurements—over two billion data points, with about 150 million new measurements added each month—and uses deep learning to predict molecular properties. The company follows a rapid, design-make-test-analyze cycle that takes less than a month per target, allowing it to explore chemical space and experimentally measure millions of molecules at once to find potent, selective compounds. Although immunology is the primary focus, Terray also collaborates with big pharma and biotech partners to apply its platform to a wide range of targets and diseases. Its goal is to accelerate small molecule drug discovery by tightly integrating data, AI, and wet-lab science, delivering new therapies more quickly through internal programs and partnerships.

Terray Therapeutics has appointed Lisa L. Decker, Ph.D., as Chief Business Officer. Decker brings over 20 years of biotechnology leadership and business development experience to the role, where she will lead the company's business development strategy. Decker was most recently Chief Business Officer at IGM Biosciences and previously held the same role at Atreca, Inc. She also served on the board of directors of Chimerix until its acquisition by Jazz Pharmaceuticals in 2025. Terray's EMMI platform combines proprietary data with AI to identify and optimise medicines. The Los Angeles-based company is developing small-molecule medicines for an internal immunology pipeline and working with pharmaceutical partners across multiple therapeutic areas. CEO Jacob Berlin said EMMI should enable multiple clinical entries in coming years.
Terray Therapeutics has launched EMMI Predict: TerraBind, a universal potency prediction model that achieves 20% higher accuracy than leading open-source models whilst running 26 times faster, reducing inference costs by 96%. The model supports Terray's drug discovery platform, which combines experimentation with machine intelligence. TerraBind uses coarse-grained structural representations instead of computationally intensive diffusion processes, eliminating the diffusion module entirely whilst maintaining accuracy. In benchmarks, TerraBind outperformed Boltz-2 with 16% higher Pearson correlation on CASP16 and 20% better performance across 18 internal drug discovery targets. The model leverages Terray's dataset of 14 billion unique target-molecule measurements. Terray has raised $295 million and collaborates with Bristol Myers Squibb, Gilead and Odyssey Therapeutics on drug development programmes.
Terray Therapeutics expands Board of Directors with appointment of biotechnology leader Wendy Young, Ph.D.
