Nutcracker Therapeutics

Nutcracker Therapeutics was an RNA therapeutics company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Emeryville, California, operating as a contract research, development and manufacturing organization (CRDMO) for RNA-based medicines. Its ACORN platform compressed RNA drug manufacturing onto single-use microfluidic biochips, and its NMU-Symphony system targeted on-demand, individualized production of personalized RNA therapeutics. The company raised more than $200 million across Series A through C rounds led by ARCH Venture Partners and others. Its business was laboratory instrumentation and GMP biomanufacturing services, not software, and it never published a developer program, public API, SDK or machine-readable specification. In December 2025 the company was acquired by Medici Therapeutics, the oncology platform formed by ARCH Venture Partners and the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy. Its corporate site at nutcrackerx.com went dark shortly afterwards and now returns a shared hosting placeholder.

Nutcracker Therapeutics is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Biotechnology, Life Sciences, RNA, and Therapeutics.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.

    return 404, and the sitemap.xml it still serves belongs to an unrelated tenant (store.repligen.com).
