The AI Engine for
Any Pathology Question

CipherX turns pathology into structured, explainable intelligence, powering diagnostics, research, and drug development.

147,000+
real cases a year flowing through our own clinical and research workflows.
Unmatched breadth
Clinical, preclinical and research pathology - expert-annotated,
growing daily.

High-risk - compliant

The AI core that turns tissue
into knowledge.

CipherX is the technology platform behind Deciphex AI - an engine that supports many workflows, products and partnerships without being limited to any single use case.

Whole slide pathology

Whole slide images enter CipherX as visual evidence - flagged in place, at full resolution, for the pathologist to examine.

foundation models

See the morphology

Broad AI representations learn the visual language of pathology across tissue, species and disease states.

semantic layer

Speak pathology

Those representations are translated into human-readable glyphs, signature and evidence.

Explainable intelligence

CipherX turns tissue patterns into outputs that can
be reused, adapted and inspected.

In use today · built for what comes next

CipherX is already deployed in our
clinical and research workflows.

Those deployments demonstrate what the engine can enable today. One engine, proven twice, in two of the hardest markets in pathology: live clinical diagnosis and regulated drug safety.

The clinical proof

AI-powered digital pathology for hospital laboratories and NHS Trusts, supporting the 28-day Faster Diagnosis Standard. Every case signed out by a pathologist.

The research & preclinical proof

GLP-compliant digital pathology used by 9 of the top 10 global pharma. Pre-trained lesion-screening models cut pathologist review time by over 20%.

9 of the top 10 pharma

Built to understand pathology,
not just classify images.

CipherX is designed around breadth, interpretability and adaptability - the qualities required  for pathology AI to move beyond narrow point solutions.

Comprehensive Coverage

Across tissues, species, modalities, and workflows. CipherX has been trained and validated across more pathology contexts than any comparable system.

Explainable
by Design

Interpretable semantic features at every level. Pathologists understand why a prediction was made - not just what it says.

Adaptive
Intelligence

Reuse, don't retrain. The CipherX engine adapts to new applications by recombining existing semantic building blocks rather than starting from zero.

Reusable
Infrastructure

One engine supports multiple applications across research, trials, and diagnostics. Your investment compounds with every new use case.

Pathology companies already run on CipherX.

CipherX is validated where it matters: in production, across our own clinical and research workflows. Deciphex is the first and largest user of CipherX — the same engine our partners use is the one we rely on every day, signed out by expert pathologists.

THE PARTNER ADVANTAGE

AI built where pathology happens

CipherX is grounded in Deciphex's operational experience across diagnostic and research pathology. It is not developed in isolation from the workflows it is intended to transform.

From question to application

Whether the goal is a biomarker, a companion diagnostic, a research workflow or a future product, CipherX provides a common engine for converting tissue patterns into usable intelligence.

Why CipherX,
and why now?

CipherX is the engine behind our clinical and preclinical tools.

Every conclusion it returns decomposes back to named structures a pathologist can read and audit. Regulated workflows need that route back to the tissue.

Pierre Moulin
Chief Scientific Officer
The semantic layer is the layer of named glyphs and signatures held above the foundation models.

Every tool is assembled there, and every conclusion decomposes back to it. Because the vocabulary sits above the model, changing the model does not require changing the vocabulary.

Emre Kose
Computational Pathologist
The field of pathology AI has spent a decade returning scores without a route back to the tissue.

That has been the barrier to adoption in clinical reporting and in the pharma workflows where every claim has to be defensible. CipherX is the engine we have built to overcome this barrier, and it is where we believe the next generation of clinical and research pathology will be built.

Donal O'Shea
Chief Executive Officer

We don't just build models. We own where pathology AI is trained, validated, and deployed, across hundreds of thousands of live cases a year.
