Claire Hedley
Claire's path to Aurilion started with a firsthand encounter with a problem that most people in the industry accept as the cost of doing business. While working within formulation-adjacent roles and exploring a product launch of her own, she saw how fragmented, reactive, and resource-intensive formulation R&D still is — even in well-resourced teams.
With a background in health science, chemical formulation, and software development, Claire was positioned to understand both the scientific complexity and the infrastructure gap. She founded Aurilion to bring AI-powered intelligence upstream — helping formulation teams develop, validate, and manage formulations before costly laboratory resources are committed.
Aurilion's proprietary PLRS (Pre-Lab Readiness Score), backed by a filed provisional patent, is a direct result of that vision — a systematic way to evaluate formulation readiness before laboratory resources are committed. Aurilion is starting with Beauty & Personal Care, with a platform architecture designed to expand across formulation-intensive industries.
