Competitive advantages
Faster Time to Market
The chemical and compound industry requires long and costly development cycles to validate formulations of compounds, coatings and additives. Matilde accelerates this process by virtually simulating thousands of raw material combinations, predicting critical properties such as density, hardness, tensile strength and aging resistance before physical testing.
Instead of proceeding by trial and error in the laboratory, R&D chemists can focus resources only on the most promising prototypes.
Lower R&D Costs
Elastomers, resins, plasticizers, and functional fillers represent significant cost items in the development of compounds and coatings.
Each round of experimental testing consumes materials that, in the event of a nonconforming formulation, become waste. Matilde
reverses this logic: it virtually simulates the behavior of recipes before physical production, reducing the number of test batches required.
Valuable raw materials are reserved for prototypes with a high probability of success, lowering waste and optimizing the R&D budget.
Know-How Enhancement
AI processes laboratory data, formulation history, test results, and production feedback, creating an always up-to-date and contextualized chemical R&D knowledge base. Formulation consultation is immediate, with a significant reduction in technical information search time.
In companies, years of experimentation risk remaining in the memory of just a few specialists. Matilde transforms this experience into a searchable digital asset: every tested formulation and every correlation between ingredients and final properties is archived and made available for the future. Know-how becomes a permanent company asset, independent of individuals.

FAQ
1. How does AI work for chemical compounds and rubbers?
AI for chemical compounds and rubber analyzes historical formulation data (ingredients, percentages, rheometric tests) and predicts the physico-mechanical properties of the final product — such as density, hardness, viscosity, tensile strength, wear resistance, and aging behavior. Additionally, Matilde’s AI assistant analyzes unstructured knowledge from technical reports, external databases, patents, scientific publications, and internal documents to suggest new ingredients and accelerate the identification of high-performance yet more cost-effective solutions.
2. How does Matilde protect proprietary formulations?
Proprietary formulations and recipes are key competitive assets. MATILDE allows you to leverage artificial intelligence to accelerate innovation without compromising the confidentiality or control of your strategic data. MATILDE is designed to protect the confidentiality, ownership and integrity of your formulations. Here is how we do it:
- Complete Data Isolation: Customer data, including formulations, tests and derived models, is completely separated and is not accessible by other tenants or organizations.
- Models remain company assets: Versions of models trained on customer data remain the exclusive property of the company and are not incorporated into general models shared with other users, nor used to train external models.
- No third-party sharing: Data is not shared with external partners or suppliers and is not used for purposes other than the agreed operational ones.
- Privacy regulation compliance: We operate in Europe. Therefore, the platform is fully compliant with GDPR and best practices in data security, with access controls and policies that protect sensitive information.
