Simreka key ROI drivers

1. R&D Cost Reduction (30–70%)

• Eliminate unnecessary physical experiments: Simreka reduces dependency on iterative lab testing through predictive modeling.
• Fewer failed formulations: Reverse Simulation suggests viable options from the outset.
• Reduced raw material waste: Virtual trials avoid resource consumption on dead-end paths.

Example: A specialty coatings company reduced 6 months of lab trials to 4 weeks using Simreka, saving €120,000 in direct R&D costs.

2. Time-to-Market Acceleration (2x–5x Faster)

• Simulate before you synthesize: Rapidly iterate formulations in silico before entering the lab.
• Automated experiment planning with MatIQ: Suggests high-probability experiments based on past outcomes and literature.
• Faster scale-up readiness: Process simulations reduce pilot plant bottlenecks.

Strategic Impact: Enables first-mover advantage in competitive markets, especially for green or compliant product versions.

3. Sustainability and Compliance ROI

• Sustainable ingredient substitution: Identify eco-friendly alternatives that maintain performance.
• Lifecycle optimization: Simulate degradation, recyclability, and energy consumption before production.
• Pre-screen for regulatory conflicts: Avoid late-stage reformulations or legal hurdles.

Outcome: Supports ESG goals, reduces carbon impact, and helps win sustainability-driven customer contracts.

4. Better Utilization of Existing Data Assets

• Leverage historical lab data: MatIQ turns legacy datasets into intelligent insights.
• Cross-silo collaboration: Break data silos across formulation, process, and quality teams.
• Data reuse = lower cost per insight: Every experiment becomes a reusable learning asset.

ROI Enabler: Increases knowledge ROI by reducing duplication and enabling compounding innovation.

5. Productivity Uplift Across Teams

• Scientists: Guided by AI to design better experiments, faster.
• Process Engineers: Optimize scale-up with virtual scenarios.
• Regulatory Teams: Get alerts on compliance issues early in the design phase.
• Business Units: Make faster, data-backed go/no-go decisions.

Result: Up to 50% increase in project throughput with the same headcount.

Simreka transforms traditional R&D into a digital, data-driven, and AI-guided innovation engine. The result? Faster product launches, lower cost of experimentation, greener innovation, and higher returns per R&D euro invested.
