Methods for predicting the outcome of production of peptides are provided, as well as methods for producing peptides or providing products comprising peptides, which uses said methods. The methods comprise providing a primary
amino acid sequence for one or more peptides, and Provide ore or more
metrics predicting the outcome of production of the one or more peptides by
chemical synthesis using a
machine learning model that has been trained to predict one or more
metrics characterising the outcome of production of peptides using training data comprising training
peptide primary sequences and measured
metrics characterising the outcome of production of the training peptides by
chemical synthesis. The measured metrics are metrics obtained after completion of the
chemical synthesis process. Systems and products for performing the methods are also described.
