AppliedXL

AppliedXL is a New York-based event-detection company that builds machine-learning systems - it calls them editorial algorithms - to spot early signals in clinical trials, biotech, and financial data before they become news. Founded in 2020 by former Wall Street Journal computational journalists Francesco Marconi and Erin Riglin out of the Newlab Venture Studio, the company mines public databases like ClinicalTrials.gov to flag trial delays, enrollment shortfalls, and irregular status changes across more than 100 risk categories, feeding real-time intelligence to life-sciences executives and investors. Its work powers STAT Trials Pulse and appears on the Bloomberg Terminal.
