What is Cortellis
Cortellis is a life sciences intelligence platform that aggregates and curates data on drugs, clinical trials, regulatory activity, companies, and related scientific and commercial information. It is used by pharmaceutical and biotech teams for competitive intelligence, portfolio planning, business development, and research support workflows. The product is primarily a data and analytics environment rather than a molecular modeling or simulation tool, with emphasis on structured datasets, search, and reporting across the drug development lifecycle.
Broad life sciences data coverage
Cortellis consolidates multiple datasets spanning drugs, indications, clinical development, regulatory milestones, and company information. This breadth supports cross-functional questions that require linking assets to trials, sponsors, and outcomes. It is well-suited to landscape reviews and pipeline monitoring where a single modeling tool would not provide sufficient context.
Curated, structured intelligence workflows
The platform emphasizes curated records and standardized entities (e.g., drug, target, company, trial) to support consistent analysis. Users can perform structured search, filtering, and comparisons across assets and programs. This is useful for repeatable competitive intelligence and portfolio reporting workflows.
Supports business and R&D decisions
Cortellis is designed for use beyond computational chemistry, including strategy, commercial, and business development teams. It helps users track competitors, identify partnering signals, and summarize development status across therapeutic areas. This complements discovery-focused tools that primarily address molecular design and simulation.
Not a discovery modeling tool
Cortellis does not primarily provide docking, molecular dynamics, or structure-based design capabilities. Teams focused on in silico screening or mechanistic simulation typically need separate specialized software. As a result, it fits best as an intelligence layer rather than a core computational discovery environment.
Data access depends on licensing
Coverage and modules available to a user depend on the specific subscription and entitlements purchased. Organizations may need multiple modules to match their use cases across clinical, regulatory, and commercial domains. This can complicate budgeting and limit access for occasional users.
Integration and export constraints
While the platform supports analysis and reporting, organizations often need to move data into internal BI tools, data lakes, or CRM systems for broader workflows. Depending on the organization’s needs, exporting, API access, and data normalization can require additional configuration and governance. This may add effort for teams aiming to operationalize Cortellis data at scale.
Plan & Pricing
Pricing model: Enterprise / custom licensing (Clarivate does not publish Cortellis list prices on its official site).
Free tier/trial: Free trial explicitly offered for Cortellis Regulatory Intelligence (request form on Clarivate site). Other Cortellis modules show demo / contact-for-access flows but no public trial pages were found.
Example costs: Not published on official site.
How to purchase / notes: Multiple Cortellis product pages and the Cortellis contact/support pages direct users to "Contact us" or "Request a demo" for pricing and access; Clarivate sells Cortellis via custom/licensed subscriptions and API licenses (no publicly listed per-user or per-month rates).
