The collaboration integrates Modella AI’s research-use only pathology assistant with Techcyte’s cloud-based platform.
Techcyte, a provider of AI-powered digital diagnostics for anatomic and clinical pathology, announced that its platform, Techcyte Fusion (research use only in the US, CE-IVDD-marked in Europe), now includes Modella AI, a biomedical artificial intelligence company specializing in computational pathology, as a partner in the Techcyte Fusion Partner Program.
This collaboration brings together Modella AI’s research-use only AI co-pilot for pathologists, PathChat, with Techcyte’s integrated, cloud-based digital pathology platform—supporting the advancement of workflow efficiency and expanding access to advanced AI-powered pathology tools for research.
Modella AI is a biomedical artificial intelligence company focused on improving pathology through generative and agentic AI. Its flagship research product, PathChat, enables intelligent interactions with digital slides—offering capabilities such as report summarization, image interpretation, and contextual question answering.
An advanced research-use only version of the tool, PathChat DX, has been granted US Food and Drug Administration Breakthrough Device Designation, reflecting the device’s potential to provide a more effective diagnosis of a life-threatening or irreversibly debilitating condition. While this designation recognizes the potential of the technology, any use of PathChat within the Techcyte Fusion platform remains for research use only and is not intended for clinical diagnostic purposes.
“Modella AI’s commitment to innovation, including agentic AI, and Techcyte’s unified pathology platform create a powerful research combination,” says Matt Smith, chief strategy officer at Techcyte, in a release. “Together, our goal is delivering practical AI that pathologists can trust and that seamlessly integrates into their digital workflows.”
Jill Stefanelli, president, cofounder, and chief executive officer at Modella AI, adds in a release, “We’re excited to partner with Techcyte to bring our pathology-native AI to a broader research audience. Integrating PathChat into the Fusion research platform supports the exploration of AI-assisted workflows in pathology and reflects our shared commitment to advancing digital innovation in the lab.”
