Installed base
Many labs and imaging cores already own inverted confocal microscopes that could become more capable.
Investor Overview
A practical route to accessible super-resolution.
Peregrine Photon is building a focused catalog: STED modules, custom integrated inverted microscopes, and the workflows that make advanced imaging usable.
Why Now
Labs need nanoscale detail in usable systems.
Super-resolution microscopy has proven scientific value, yet access is still limited by cost, complexity, training burden, sample constraints, and maintenance. Peregrine Photon packages advanced photonics into systems that labs can understand and keep using.
Workflow gap
The market needs more than optics: validation, protocols, training, and instrument handoff matter.
Canada-based operating base
Montréal photonics roots and Quantino incubation create a specific base for partners and pilot customers.
Commercial Paths
Three commercial paths.
Peregrine can upgrade an existing microscope, build a complete custom instrument, or sell focused engineering and validation work around a demanding imaging problem.
Super-resolution module
Repeatable upgrade path for compatible inverted confocal systems. See module.
Integrated instrument
Higher-value custom systems for method developers, research groups, and core facilities. See instrument.
Engineering services
Optical architecture, calibration, software workflows, validation, and commissioning support.
Training and support
Documentation, user handoff, protocol guidance, and ongoing support planning.
Defensibility
The hard part is the full instrument workflow.
STED performance is not a component list. It requires know-how across optics, sample prep, dyes, calibration, software, installation, and training.
Integration know-how
Designing around real inverted microscope constraints, not idealized optical benches.
Protocol connection
Connecting dyes, samples, mounting, controls, and acquisition settings to instrument performance.
Commissioning package
Validation images, reference samples, operating procedures, and acceptance criteria.
Customer intimacy
Custom builds create strong feedback loops that can shape repeatable modules.
Scientific credibility
Leadership with microscopy, biomedical optics, and research translation context.
Quantino incubation
Incubation at Quantino adds a visible deep-tech ecosystem signal for partners, grant programs, and investors.
Capital Use
Capital moves the platform toward repeatable delivery.
Engineering
Refine module architecture, controls, calibration, mechanical interfaces, and manufacturable assemblies.
Validation
Generate reference data, acceptance tests, compatibility criteria, and performance documentation.
Pilots
Place systems with early labs or facilities to prove workflow value and support needs.
Delivery
Build supplier relationships, service process, training materials, and repeatable installation packages.
Traction Template
Add proof as soon as it can be shared.
Add public items here as they become available: pilot partners, sample images, compatibility reviews, grants, early purchase interest, facility conversations, or technical milestones.
Proof slots
Pilot site interest · Validation image · Facility quote · Technical milestone
This keeps the investor page honest today while making it easy to add evidence without redesigning the site later.
Partnership Opportunities
Good partners bring microscopes, samples, facilities, or capital.
Pilot labs
Teams with a specific imaging problem and a willingness to validate workflow fit.
Core facilities
Shared labs that understand training, maintenance, scheduling, and multi-user instrumentation.
Strategic partners
Microscope, optics, software, or sample-prep groups that can strengthen delivery.
Investors
Capital aligned with scientific instrumentation, photonics, and commercialization from research roots.
