Seeq for Pharma: Powering the Future of Pharmaceutical Analytics

September 4, 2025

At Conneqt 2025, leaders from the pharmaceutical industry gathered to explore how Seeq’s powerful analytics, AI, and monitoring platform is evolving to meet the unique challenges of regulated manufacturing environments. In a session led by Paolo Bairuca, Seeq Industry Principal for Pharmaceuticals, and Michelle Hart, Seeq Product Manager, Seeq shared details around the newly introduced Seeq for Pharma Analytics & AI Suite, reflecting on Seeq’s ongoing commitment to deliver GMP-ready analytics solutions that empower life sciences organizations to drive quality, efficiency, and compliance, all in one platform. 

Why Pharma? Why Now?

While Seeq’s roots began in the chemical and oil & gas industries, its early adopters in pharma saw its potential for exploratory analytics. Over time, Seeq evolved from an experimentation tool to a mission-critical solution embedded within many pharma organizations’ quality systems, batch documentation, and release processes. 

But the pharmaceutical industry has unique needs: strict regulatory compliance, validated workflows, audit trails, and deeply conservative operational cultures. Seeq recognized this gap and responded with a tailored approach. 

Introducing the Seeq for Pharma Suite

The Seeq for Pharma Analytics & AI Suite is a dedicated version of the platform purpose-built to support GMP-compliant use cases. It features three key pillars:

  1. Analytics Change Management
    New locking and versioning capabilities ensure that once analyses are approved, they can be locked to prevent unintended changes. All updates are tracked in the audit trail and linked to analytics versions to support formal review and validation, streamlining compliance, and simplifying documentation. 
  2. Regulatory Compliance Support
    A new software update approach is specifically designed to minimize re-validation efforts while ensuring the platform stays current with the latest features. Seeq’s strong audit history and comprehensive vendor qualification support make it particularly well-suited to meet the pharmaceutical industry’s stringent requirements. With quarterly, regulatory-approved releases and validation-friendly upgrade processes, Seeq delivers structured, auditable updates that align seamlessly with pharma’s operational and compliance needs without disrupting critical workflows. 
  3. Pharma-Specific Enablement
    A Pharma Community of Practice (CoP), hosted by Seeq, connects pharma users across the industry, creating a forum, in person and online, to share best practices, leverage peer expertise, and provide input into the Seeq roadmap. Pharma customers are also supported by Seeq Analytics Engineers and Customer Service Managers who come from the industry and collaborate with the customer team to develop, execute, and monitor a strategic plan to achieve their goals. There are also vast learning resources available, a dedicated Trust Center, Validation Guidelines, and more.  With this approach, Seeq has built the infrastructure to support long-term success in life sciences.

A Track Record of Progress

From the addition of audit trails in 2021 to enhanced capsule properties, compare view visualizations, and more intuitive condition tables in 2023–2024, Seeq has continually enhanced its capabilities based on user feedback. The evolution of the platform reflects its collaborative development model, where customer feedback directly informs product design. 

Listening to the Industry: The Interactive Breakout

The Conneqt session also featured an interactive feedback workshop, with groups discussing key pharma pain points: 

  • GMP & Validation: Consensus affirmed Seeq’s quarterly release cadence and roadmap. Future priorities include exporting workbook configurations for regulatory filing. 
  • Batch Database Contextualization: Users want easier access to disparate data sources (e.g., QMS systems) and the ability to centralize batch context in one place. 
  • CDMO Data Sharing: Participants highlighted the manual pain points in data transfer and debated access control challenges when CDMOs and sponsors need shared visibility. 
  • Statistical Capabilities: There was strong interest in embedding basic and advanced statistical tools directly into the platform, such as control charts, ANOVA, and multivariate analysis. 

The Road Ahead

Seeq made it clear: this is just the beginning. The Seeq for Pharma Suite will continue to grow in partnership with the industry. New features will be shaped by the Pharma Community of Practice, a dedicated forum where customers share ideas, explore challenges, and co-create the future of analytics in regulated environments.
