Torx® Make
Facilitate secure, real-time collaboration using the feature-rich Kanban module
Navigate the communication challenges of employing a distributed team by connecting chemists from all organizations within a single, secure workspace. Torx® Make (previously chemTraX) was developed by our collaboration partner Elixir SoftwareTM, and allows full control of the information shared with invited collaborators. The customizable interface is fully scalable and suited to all business needs, from the smallest biotech start-up to the largest global pharmaceutical.
"During my time at AstraZeneca I was working with chemTraX and really liked it- I appreciated the usefulness, how easy it is to work with. When I joined Evariste they were already using Torx Make, so when I learned I’d be using it again I was really pleased!"
Dr Jan Lanz, Principal Scientist, Evariste
Accelerate your drug discovery projects while maximizing use of your resources. Torx Make opens up secure, real-time information exchange with your CRO partner(s). The collaborative Kanban tracks compounds and simplifies processes, making better use of your discovery scientists and budgets.
Securely assign compounds to external collaborators
Work securely and confidently with a comprehensive view of all projects. The functional Kanban of Torx Make was originally developed by pharma research scientists, with the purpose of creating software to improve R&D efficiency.

The integration of Torx Make has been proven to increase productivity and bring major savings in both time and cost.
When communicating and sharing compounds with external parties such as CROs, the need for multiple documents such as spreadsheets, PowerPoint slides and emails, and the requirement for regular project meetings often take many hours of scientists' time.
Implementing Torx Make can help to streamline communication and eliminate the time being spent on these low value tasks, leaving your scientists more time to make the molecules that matter! The fully customizable interface can be used as the information source for review meetings, avoiding the need for time-consuming preparation of slides and reports.
There was a huge time saving in back-and-forth communications. I think we saved 2hr/week/scientist - equal to a FTE (full time equivalent), plus another 4-6 hrs/week/dept head on coordination - almost another FTE!

Torx Make is fundamental to the way that our chemists work. The integration with in-house databases has provided additional efficiencies for our CRO partners and Monte Rosa chemists, removing manual registration steps. Torx Make readily scales with our expanding requirement to leverage more externalized chemistry.
Bernhard Fasching, Vice President, Chemistry at Monte Rosa
Torx Make has rapidly become a crucial node in Evariste's chemistry platform and is essential to the way we communicate with CROs. Our virtual model means that efficient interaction with our external chemists is fundamentally important and Torx Make has helped significantly in this regard.
Alfie Brennan, Chief Scientific Officer, Evariste
By providing immediate, real-time access to design and synthesis information, Torx ensures that we are investing our resources in the most critical compounds. It is easy to identify any productivity bottlenecks, make quick and informed decisions about changes to priorities or assignments, and communicate these updates to team members and CROs.
Toni Kline, Senior Director of Chemistry at Engine Biosciences
Torx has revolutionised the way we communicate & prioritise designs within project teams and with our synthetic chemistry CRO partners. Torx has enabled increased flexibility in working with our collaborators and improved communication of relative priorities. We can make informed decisions quickly and track delivery of key molecules to rapidly advance our programs.
Associate Director, Medicinal Chemistry, Cambridge Biotech
The ability to see progress across projects for design and synthesis helps us work out where there are hold-ups so we can make informed resourcing decisions
