CAS , a division of the American Chemical Society, announced CAS Connections, a new integration framework that embeds the CAS Content Collection and CAS Newton, a recently launched agentic AI, directly into the R&D tools researchers already use. Initial collaborations with Albert Invent, Sapio Sciences, Inductive Bio, Scilligence, and Wolfram Research bring CAS content and capabilities into their platforms, putting trusted scientific information where discovery happens.
R&D teams rely on a portfolio of powerful digital platforms to move science forward. CAS Connections enhances those platforms by infusing more than 150 years of CAS-curated scientific knowledge and the conversational intelligence of CAS Newton directly into the tools researchers already trust. Integrated access to verified scientific information drives greater confidence in AI-generated answers and a more streamlined research workflow.
CAS collaborations with Albert Invent, Sapio Sciences, Inductive Bio, Scilligence, and Wolfram Research represent the first phase of CAS Connections integrations. Additional collaborations will be announced throughout the year.
CAS Connections supports deployment within secure environments via API, Model Context Protocol (MCP), and AI platform integrations for tools such as Anthropic’s Claude and Microsoft Copilot. Researchers can combine CAS data and the capabilities that power CAS SciFinder and CAS BioFinder with their organization’s proprietary internal resources in their chosen portfolio of workflow platforms. With CAS Newton integration, aligned with the CAS Ethical Approach to AI, they can conduct conversational, multi-step research that returns cited, verifiable answers.
