Decision intelligence, engineered to compound.

DIX is the India-based intelligence infrastructure arm of the SBI · SBX group. We build the production systems — agents, models, workflows, and decision platforms — that power the decision substrate across hospitals, life sciences, and pharma R&D.

The group

DIX extends the lineage that built The Systems Biology Institute (Tokyo, 2000) and SBX Corporation (2011). Founded by a pioneer in systems biology, Dr Hiroaki Kitano, over two decades of leadership in AI, computational biology, and applied software,compounding globally from Japan, Canada and now in India.

What we do →
§01 · What we do

The intelligence engineering layer empowering biology and medicine.

We build the systems that turns models, evidence, and domain expertise into better decisions inside workflows of hospitals, pharma R&D, and life sciences.

01

Applied AI / ML

Foundation-model adaptation, multi-omics learning, causal inference, and agentic systems, built for real biomedical data, not benchmarks.

02

Scientific software

Production platforms for drug discovery, clinical workflows, and translational research. Reproducible, observable, hardened by use.

03

Decision systems

Interfaces, agents, feedback loops, and audit trails that move intelligence from model output into real clinical, scientific, and portfolio decisions.

04

Embedded teams

Diverse teams of PhDs, engineers, and designers, working alongside the partner for creating a living decision system.

§02 · The lineage

Twenty-five years of category creation in AI, computational biology, and applied software

Tokyo . Vancouver . Hyderabad.

SBI 2000
The Systems Biology Institute · Tokyo
The crucible of creativity

A non-profit research institute founded to advance systems biology and translate it into medicine. Home of the Nobel Turing Challenge: to build an AI that can make discoveries worthy of the Nobel by 2050. The intellectual foundation of everything that followed.

SBX 2011
SBX Corporation · Tokyo
The business ignition arm of SBI

Translates SBI research into deployed solutions for drug discovery, clinical decision-making, and personalised healthcare through platforms developed across two decades of partnerships with global partners in pharma, life-sciences and healthcare. SBX BioSciences (Vancouver, 2020) extends the footprint in North America.

§04 · Our work

Three pillars of work: Clinical, Multiomics & Multi-modal biology, Pathfinder missions.


Clinical Intelligence

Clinical Operations · the point of care.

Discharge, escalation, capacity, documentation, and pathway adherence: the high-frequency decisions whose quality compounds into patient outcomes. DIX engineers the intelligence layer behind Disha, built for clinicians and hospital teams on shift.

  • Operating decision platform
  • Early warning signals for operating decisions
  • Operating Pathway adherence intelligence
MoMa Intelligence

MoMa · Intelligence for pharma R&D pipelines, life sciences, and diagnostics.

Multi-omics, multi-modal, multi-models (MoMa) and molecular reasoning for compound selection, mechanism inference, trial design, and translational risk. Grounded in two decades of partnerships with global pharma.

  • Multi-omics foundation models
  • Causal mechanism mapping
  • Translational and clinical trial decisions
PathFinder

Portfolio intelligence for adjacent possibilities.

A deep context engine for the decisions that shape a portfolio, a pipeline, a product and expands the aperture of strategic decision lens for global companies. Evidence, scenarios, and trade-offs in a single orchestrated interface developed at DIX.

  • PathFinder platform
  • Scenario simulation
  • Landscape & landmine analysis
§05 · The DNA

Systems Thinking.

We start with the why, then bind the biology, context and intelligence through the agents, models, and platforms that answer the what and how.

One practice, delivering outcomes, not outputs over twenty-five years.

Most teams arriving at decision intelligence today are retrofitting language models onto problems they have not lived with. We arrive from the other direction: from mechanism, from platforms hardened over years inside SBX, from peer-reviewed work the field still cites, and from a bench of PhDs, clinicians, engineers, and designers.

Digital biology

We are digital.bio first.

Biology, biomedicine, mechanism. The institute that helped pioneer systems biology and contribute to creating the standards in biology is upstream of us, so the way we model a disease, a pathway, or a clinical workflow begins with how it actually works, not with the data shape it leaves behind.

Agentic AI / ML

Built by people who built the field.

Our founder pioneered massively-parallel AI, intelligent robotics, and the Nobel Turing Challenge. Agentic systems, causal reasoners, and scientific co-pilots are the through-line of three decades of work.

Software systems

Production-grade, hardened in pharma.

Garuda, Taxila, and Gandhara have been deployed across two decades of partnerships with global pharma R&D. Reliability, observability, reproducibility, and safety are first-class concerns built in by people who have run them at scale.

Domain depth

Diverse minds, converged in one room.

We do not split “domain” from “tech”. Our biologists code. Our engineers read papers. Our designers sit with users. The unit of work is a decision, and the teams do whatever it takes to engineer it well.

§06 · Platforms . Our tools for craftmanship

Three foundations of the decision substrate: Garuda, Taxila, and Gandhara.

Garuda Orchestration

Connects heterogeneous tools, data, and analyses into reproducible scientific workflows.

Taxila Text in context

Extracts mechanism, evidence, and contradiction from millions of papers, patents, and trial records, and feeds it back as structure.

Gandhara Learning

The AI framework (predictive models, generative agents, causal reasoners) trained on the structured biology that Garuda and Taxila produce.

§07 · Talent

Domain experts who own the work.

Biologists and biomedicine PhDs who code. Causal and ML researchers who care more about whether a model is contextually right than whether it scores. Engineers who have shipped at scale and lived with the consequences. Designers who treat a screen as the place where a decision is taken. If that sounds like you, write to us.

Biology / biomedicine PhDs
Mechanism, pathways, translation.
Causal & agentic ML
Inference, agents, structure.
Software engineers
Production. Safety. Scale.
Designers
Decisions as interfaces.
