Investors are increasingly focused on the artificial intelligence (AI) in pathology market, which is expected to reach $1.15 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 27.18% between 2025 and 2033 (per Grand View Research). This growth is being driven by the rising demand for precision medicine, the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and rapid technological advancements in diagnostic tools.
Capitalizing on this momentum, Tempus AI TEM acquired Paige, a leading AI-driven digital pathology company. Paige brings a deep foundation in pathology and AI, underpinned by its proprietary dataset of nearly 7 million clinically annotated, digitized pathology slides. The acquisition has significantly strengthened Tempus’ capabilities by expanding its proprietary dataset, enhancing its experienced technical workforce, and establishing a strong presence in digital pathology with an industry-leading technology portfolio.
Following the acquisition, Tempus launched Paige Predict, a suite of advanced digital pathology applications designed to analyze hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) whole-slide images to support informed testing decisions. Leveraging the combined intelligent digital pathology platform and proprietary AI technologies of Tempus and Paige, Paige Predict can extract critical biomarker insights from limited tissue samples and predict the likelihood of 123 biomarkers and oncogenic molecular pathways across 16 cancer types. These results are seamlessly integrated and automatically delivered to ordering physicians alongside clinical reports, enhancing diagnostic efficiency and precision.
