What We Do

At Chai, we design PCR solutions to real-world problems. Our mission is to make research-grade biotechnology accessible to everyone.

???????, ???????? ???????????
Our flagship Open qPCR machine provides precise, consistent results in the lab and in the field. In traditional labs, researchers can rapidly design, run, and analyze advanced experiments. In the field, its touch-screen and hotspot help it serve as a mobile lab in the most remote test sites. By designing our hardware as a connected, open platform, we enable a wide ecosystem of innovation around our products.

???????-???? ????????
Complex experiments demand cutting-edge reagents. We’re pioneering reagent technology that makes PCR testing faster, simpler, and more reliable like:
• Thermally stable products that ship and store more easily, increasing convenience and decreasing costs
• Carry-over contamination prevention systems that eliminate false positives
• Highly multiplexed reactions to detect a large number of pathogens simultaneously
• DNA/RNA extraction solutions that simplify testing while giving more sensitive results

?????? ??? ?????? ??? ???
We design streamlined, application-specific solutions that help people everywhere harness the power of biotechnology. Our easy to use test kits help businesses large and small operate more efficiently, improve the health and safety of our communities, and protect our environment. We take pride in:
• Helping brewers ship better-tasting beers and prevent recalls with precise beer-spoiler testing solutions
• Developing food safety solutions that are 5,000x more sensitive than our competitors’
• Bringing COVID test kits to market just two months after lockdowns began
• Continuously developing innovative solutions to fight consumer fraud, improve agricultural safety and productivity, and moreAt Chai, we design PCR solutions to real-world problems. Our mission is to make research-grade biotechnology accessible to everyone.
