Antha is a cloud based operating platform made by Synthace. Antha is made to help scientists design, execute, analyze, and replicate aspects of their lab work. The company claims that Antha can produce a 100-fold improvement in lab productivity, a 50% reduction in the time it takes to generate internal vector constructions, a 33% reduction in the cost of running experiments, and an increase in enzymatic activity by 100X compared to pre-Antha platforms. Below you can find brief descriptions of specific services Antha software offers to users which are: construct assembly, data integration, and liquid handling.
Antha helps scientists build type IIS construct assemblies by automating and reproducing the workflow of lab hardware involved in construct assembly. This automation is made possible through the use of liquid handling robots thanthat can perform lab tasks involved in construct assembly. Antha software allows work flows of different lab hardware systems to work together, such as construct assembly, transformation, and plating-out. These process can be automated, reproduced, and customized to the needs of each laboratory. Antha software keeps track of, and organizes, information generated by lab hardware, producing clean data sets for scientists to work with, and offers online and offline visualization tools that can be easily shared with other users. Antha software is integrated with: Azure, GitHub, Python, Jupyter, Pandas, matplotlib, numpy, and jmp.

Gilson and Synthace anouncedannounced their partnership in April, 2018. The companies pledged to begin working together to merge Antha with Gilson's liquid handling platform PIPETMAX. They are workignworking on creating a visual drag and dropdrag-and-drop system that will allow the people using PIPETMAX to customize their workflows. The software system will be able to be used remotely for programming many tasks of the PIPETMAX, such as: transfers, dilutions, master mix preparation, and provide data management.
In November 2015, Merck and Synthace announced they will be working together to optimize their Antha software to become a better bio-manufacturing platform. Synthace is hoping to use the large amount of experience Merck has in manufacturing pharmaceuticals to improve the functionality of their Antha software.
Oxford Biomedica is the lead partner in this partnership betweenof Synthace, Cell and Gene Therapy Catapult, and Stratophase. The partnerships betweenwith these companies was announced in August, 2017 and is focused on developing more efficient cell and gene manufacturing systems and technologies.
