CloudScientific

What CloudScientific does

CloudScientific (上海康昱盛信息科技有限公司, 康昱盛) is a Shanghai-headquartered, privately held life science informatics solutions provider founded in 2009 that operates as an authorized China distributor, integrator, and technical services partner for more than 15 international scientific software vendors. The company builds no large-scale platform of its own software engineering origin but rather curates a portfolio spanning computer-aided drug design (MOE from CCG, StarDrop, Gaussian, SynSpace, QUELO), crystal structure informatics (CCDC, CSD-Materials, MOEsaic), ADMET and genotoxicity prediction (Lhasa Derek/Sarah Nexus, Zeneth, Mirabilis, ADMET Ranker from MindRank), electronic lab notebooks and data management (E-Notebook, D360, Instant JChem/Plexus, Design Hub, TIBCO Spotfire), bioinformatics and omics (Talk2Data, BBrowserX, SpatialX, BioStudio, OmicsBox, Mascot, SimLipid), preclinical and clinical systems (Xybion Pristima LIMS, BSI CTMS/eTMF, Lean QbD), and the newly introduced Ennov AI-driven quality and compliance platform.

The company monetizes through software licensing, subscriptions, and distribution margins on the international portfolio, supplemented by professional services revenue from technical training (e.g., MOE Antibody Drug Design Training at 2000-3000 RMB per attendee), user conferences (600 RMB per attendee), and customized development for chemical informatics websites and data management integrations. Go-to-market is sales-led via a direct technical team in Shanghai and event-driven via annual user conferences (Chemaxon China User Meeting, Lhasa China User Meeting, Shanghai CADD Discussion Group) and recurring webinars.

The company serves two primary vertical segments — biopharmaceutical enterprises (small molecule and biologics R&D, from early discovery through preclinical and clinical development) and academic/research institutions (drug discovery, structural biology, omics, precision medicine) — with a smaller tertiary segment in agrochemical design. As of 2026 the company reportedly serves 1500+ biopharma and academic customers across China, has 11-50 employees, and is founder-led (CEO Jack Lin / 林建成, with Technical Director 林伟鼎) with no disclosed external institutional investors or subsidiaries.

Broad incumbents

• PerkinElmer Informatics (Revvity Signals): Informatics platform (Signals Notebooks, VitroVivo, VivoVivo, Spotfire) overlapping with CloudScientific's TIBCO Spotfire, E-Notebook, and clinical/preclinical analytics offerings, targeting similar biopharma and academic customers.
• IDBS (Danaher): Provider of scientific informatics platforms including E-Notebook (the same CambridgeSoft ELN CloudScientific distributes). Comparable enterprise ELN and data management competitor for biopharma R&D.
• Dotmatics: Scientific R&D informatics platform (including the E-Notebook ELN and data management tools CloudScientific distributes). Comparable in targeting biopharma and academic labs with integrated informatics platforms.
• Biovia (Dassault Systèmes): Broad life sciences and materials informatics portfolio from Dassault Systèmes covering CADD, ELN, LIMS, and quality. Competes with CloudScientific's portfolio at the enterprise informatics level across global pharma accounts.
• Schrödinger: Provider of computational chemistry and predictive informatics platforms used across the same biopharma CADD workflow as MOE/StarDrop. Schrödinger increasingly sells directly into Asia and competes for the same Chinese pharma customers CloudScientific serves.
• Certara: A global leader in biosimulation and drug discovery/development software (also the developer of Certara.AI carried by CloudScientific). Overlaps directly on regulatory science, ADMET prediction, pharmacometrics, and Chinese market reach, though Certara is much larger and primarily a software publisher rather than a multi-vendor distributor.

Emerging players

• Genedata: Specialist in enterprise bioinformatics and omics data management platforms (Screener, Expressionist) for biopharma R&D. Comparable as a high-end informatics platform targeting similar biopharma and academic customers.
• Molecular Discovery: Specialized provider of in silico ADMET and metabolism prediction software (Meteor) that overlaps with CloudScientific's Lhasa Derek/Sarah and Meteor distribution lines. Comparable niche in computational ADMET for pharma R&D.

Regional players

• Strand Life Sciences: India-based life sciences informatics and genomics analytics company, comparable to CloudScientific as a regional curator/distributor of multi-vendor scientific software (Avadis, Strand NGS) into a major Asian biopharma market.

Direct peers

• MolPort / Chemical Computing Group (CCG): CCG develops MOE — CloudScientific's flagship distributed product — and operates globally in molecular simulation. Highly comparable in CADD offering, though CloudScientific plays a regional distribution role while CCG is a global software developer.
