Excited for the future of drug development to supercharge all of us! This is a team that's AI-native, biology-first, and relentlessly focused on getting to a therapeutic (hint: in consumer productivity). If you want to work on a hard problem in drug development, reach out to Isaak 👇@Erinlens @parable_vc

We built the lab that's able to go from AI-led drug design to data in 24h. GPT-8 won't be bottlenecked by intelligence. It needs a biological compute layer. This is Capable. We're turning AI capabilities into human capabilities--starting with short-sleeper peptides.

It's hard to wrap one's head around how awesome this is. They're going to make ozempic for sleep. They're going to reduce fatalities in pandemics. People dunking on AI don't realize just how much it unlocks. They have no idea how insane the coming decades will be.

Isaak was the first person I met the first night I came to Berkeley. I walked down the misty streets and bumped into a group of guys who had rented out a house - the famous Arcadia group house. Got the first ever tour. I later got to live with Isaak. Rarely have I seen anyone with so much passion for both human acceleration and individual flourishing. Same with Helena - the moment you meet her you KNOW that she’ll go very far. Contagious energy. You guys will crush it!

We are excited and proud that our portfolio company @CapableLabs just emerged from stealth. We first backed @isaakfreeman and @helenarose in their very first funding round when Capable was still primarily a vision. From the beginning, it was clear they were building with the ambition and mission-focus that generational companies require. Today, Capable is using frontier AI with the aim to develop therapeutics that expand what humans are capable of, starting with sleep: first by restoring cognitive performance under sleep deprivation, then helping patients meaningfully reduce how much sleep they need while preserving the health benefits of a full night's rest. Just over a year since inception, the team has already generated promising preclinical data and aims to begin its first Phase 1 trial by next year. Underneath it all is the platform. Capable is building an in-house, vertically integrated, AI-enabled drug discovery engine that collapses peptide research, synthesis, quality control, and cell and mouse testing into a 24-hour cycle (versus the four-plus weeks typical of contract research organizations). Every cycle generates proprietary data that trains the next iteration of their AI models. We are proud to have partnered with Isaak and Helena from the beginning. Congratulations to them and the Capable team!

Super excited Capable is coming out of stealth! They've built systems to move insanely fast; and are using them to push the needle on human performance and health. One focus is a short-sleep mimetic, just one of a few key categories I'm heavily bullish on. Highly recommend checking them out in case you're looking for a rocket ship to join!

CAPABLE is a generational company. They are Genius-Level-Brilliant and the most mission-driven founders I've seen. Solving the translation from "AI into drugs" to advance humanity in the age of AI. I've been following them since the beginning. What they are working on will BLOW YOUR MIND.

The crazy headline is the 24 hour turnaround from AI design to in-vivo data. But everything that's gone into that is what makes Capable special. 132 interviews for one hire. A second orthogonal system to validate every surprising result. Bringing in external labs to check their wins. @isaakfreeman sleeping on the office floor through every crisis. He and his co-founder @helenarose skipping their own salaries for six months even after a $12M raise. Wild speed, intense rigor, unbounded audacity.
