scents

We detect the invisible. Our artificial nose biosensor identifies volatile organic compounds — the molecules that carry scent — using engineered proteins and graphene field-effect transistors.

About scenti.ai

Building the future of
molecular sensing

3 Core markets where our sensing technology creates immediate, measurable value — water quality, food safety, and healthcare diagnostics.

scenti.ai develops sensing technology that can identify volatile organic compounds (VOCs) — the odour molecules. Our platform uses biological receptors inspired by nature's olfactory system, integrated on a sensing chip, to translate these molecular signals into clear, actionable intelligence in real time.

Built within the strong biotechnology ecosystem around Ghent, we are developing a new generation of biosensor technology for applications such as water quality monitoring, food safety, and healthcare diagnostics.

Based in Brugge, Belgium. Supported by VLAIO (Flanders Innovation & Entrepreneurship). Built on peer-reviewed science.

Solution

From days to minutes:
detect before it strikes

Where VOC detection creates immediate, measurable value — from municipal water networks to hospital wards.

01 — Water Quality 01

Water Quality Monitoring

Real-time bacterial detection — inline, reagent-free, 24/7.

EU regulation demands regular E. coli monitoring. Our sensors deliver results in under 30 minutes, directly inside the water network.

02 — Food Safety 02

Food Safety & Freshness

Detect contamination across food production.

From breweries to dairy and fish processing — our sensors help prevent costly batch losses and product recalls before they happen.

03 — Healthcare 03

Healthcare Diagnostics

Non-invasive VOC analysis for early infection detection.

Wound sensors detect bacterial markers hours before symptoms appear, reducing complications in diabetic foot care and beyond.

Technology

Four building blocks power the platform

AI-powered biosensors for ultra-sensitive VOC detection — from molecule to insight in under 30 minutes.

Biological Receptors

Biological receptors inspired by nature's olfactory system, recognising specific odour molecules.

Biotechnology

Engineered via synthetic biology — stable, reproducible, and target-specific.

Sensing Electronics

Converts molecular binding events into precise, real-time electrical signals.

Wireless & Cloud

Real-time data streaming with ML-powered analytics and automated alerts.

SMELL
The Science

Every living organism emits a unique pattern of volatile organic compounds — the chemical language of life itself.

We are developing chips that integrate biological receptors inspired by nature's olfactory system. These receptors can recognise specific odour molecules, allowing the device to detect chemical signals in a way that mimics natural smell — converting invisible molecular interactions into clear, actionable signals in real time. This is the Science of Smell, Reimagined.
