Transforming Lifecycle Management
Axendia was recently briefed by Erez Kaminski, founder and CEO of Ketryx. After leading AI initiatives at Amgen, Kaminski saw firsthand how legacy systems hindered innovation. He founded Ketryx in 2021 to bridge the gap between modern software development practices and the stringent requirements of regulated environments.
Ketryx positions itself as a “connected lifecycle management platform,” an overlay that integrates seamlessly with existing tools like Jira, GitHub, and AWS. The company’s mission is to reduce complexity, automate compliance evidence generation, and accelerate product release cycles without sacrificing quality or safety.
Regulated industries are at a crossroads, with increasing product complexity, tighter compliance requirements, and a growing need for rapid innovation. Whether it’s software-enabled medical devices or AI-driven diagnostics, companies face challenges such as duplicate documentation, inefficient traceability, and prolonged release cycles.
“The systems built for simpler products like insulin pumps cannot handle today’s interconnected devices spanning sensors, cloud systems, and machine learning models,” said Kaminski.
