Challenge	FOXO Technologies is a biotechnology company that aims to make longevity accessible to all using epigenetic science. They use machine learning to examine thousands of models to find patterns of DNA methylation that classify human health, wellness, disease, and aging. Their mission is to help people live longer, healthier lives. However, the data science team at FOXO found it challenging to scale as they looked to build thousands of predictive models based on 860,000 DNA probes. They needed a solution that could help them build, fine-tune, deploy, and manage models in production at scale. Read More
About Customer	FOXO Technologies is a biotechnology company that focuses on making longevity accessible to all using epigenetic science. They use advanced machine learning to find patterns that classify human health, wellness, disease, and aging. Their mission is to help people live longer, healthier lives. They collect quantitative data for over 860,000 DNA methylation probes corresponding to different sites along the human genome. Their findings assist with underwriting decisions and mortality prediction, revolutionizing the insurance industry and eliminating the need for invasive blood testing. Read More
Solution	FOXO turned to DataRobot’s AI Cloud Platform to address their challenge. The platform allowed FOXO data scientists to build, fine-tune, deploy, and manage models in production all in one place. This significantly increased the team's efficiency. Along with efficiency gains, FOXO values DataRobot’s high-level security and privacy, which are critical factors for the company and its life insurance partners. DataRobot automates the process, shortcutting the time to build and manage each model. This allows their team members to focus on the more strategic aspects of modeling, giving them greater job satisfaction and helping attract and retain data science talent.
