We're building the writing layer for regulated science.
Asthra was founded by a team that has lived inside the regulatory writing process — and a team that has built large-scale AI systems. We bring those two worlds together so writers get leverage without losing trust.
Regulatory writing is one of the most consequential text-creation jobs in the world. A CSR can decide whether a drug reaches patients. A PSUR can flag a safety signal years before it would surface otherwise. The text matters — and the provenance of the text matters even more.
Generic AI doesn't fit this work. Hallucinations are a non-starter. Open-internet retrieval pollutes the source set. “Rewrite this paragraph” is not the unit of work that ships.
So we built Asthra around the actual unit of work: a section, drafted from a writer-approved source set, cited at the sentence level, reviewed by a human, and shipped with an audit ledger. Speed without compromising compliance.
How we build.
Writers stay in charge
The agent proposes; the writer disposes. Every retrieval plan, every source decision, every section is reviewable before anything ships. Asthra never overrides judgment.
Closed beats clever
We chose closed-system retrieval over the open internet, deterministic citations over plausible-sounding synthesis, and explicit gap flags over confident guessing. Less magic, more trust.
The ledger stays with the document
Audit readiness can't depend on a vendor staying in business. Every claim, every retrieval, every edit is captured in an append-only ledger embedded in the .docx itself.
Who's behind Asthra.
A founding team of regulatory operators and AI engineers, backed by senior advisors in pharma safety, CMC regulatory affairs, and US R&D strategy.
