Every call answered. Every Self Care or Pharma Services lead qualified. Every meeting booked. 24/7/365.

"Right now, after-hours and overflow calls hit voicemail — and most never call back. This answers them in under a second, qualifies in real time, and books the right BD rep before the prospect ever picks up the phone with Lonza or Patheon."

Michael Torres

Self Care

Vitality Brands Inc. · VP Product Development · +1 (312) 555-0283

Thank you for calling Catalent. This is the Catalent Self Care team. How can I help you?
0:02
Hi, I'm looking for gummy manufacturing. We're a supplement brand and we need a new CDMO for our immunity line.
0:08
Catalent is one of the largest gummy manufacturers in the world — billions of doses a year across our dedicated lines. Quick questions to route you?
0:15
Sure. Vitality Brands — I'm VP of Product Development.
0:28
For the immunity line — existing formula, or developing from scratch?
0:38
We have a formula but we're open to optimization. Our current CDMO has quality issues and lead times are killing us.
0:48
Quality and lead times are exactly why brands switch to Catalent. What annual volumes are you running?
1:02
Starting at 10 million units, scaling to 50 million within 18 months.
1:18
Strong fit. I'd connect you with Rachel Anderson, Sr. BD on our Self Care team. She has Thursday at 2:00 PM ET or Friday at 10:00 AM. Either work?
1:32
Thursday at 2 works.
1:50
Booked. Calendar invite sent — Rachel will be fully briefed before the call. Anything else?
2:04
No, that's great. Thanks.

Dr. Lin Chen

Pharma Services

Andros Therapeutics · Director of Pharmaceutical Development · +1 (415) 555-0392

Thank you for calling Catalent. This is the Catalent Pharma Services team. How can I help you today?
0:02
I'm with Andros Therapeutics. We have a Phase 1 small molecule going into Phase 2 next quarter — looking for a CDMO that can carry us from clinical supply through commercial manufacturing.
0:09
Catalent has integrated clinical-to-commercial across our oral solid dose network. A few questions to route you to the right specialist?
0:22
Sure.
0:34
Dose form — tablet, capsule, or still evaluating? And any solubility or bioavailability challenge with the API?
0:38
Capsules for Phase 2, possibly modified-release for commercial. The API is BCS Class II — we've been considering spray-dried dispersion.
0:54
SDD is a strong fit for BCS II. Our Greenville, NC site runs both pilot and commercial-scale spray drying with parallel HME if amorphous solid dispersion isn't optimal. Target NDA filing year?
1:14
2028.
1:36
Connecting you with Brian Reinhardt, Director of BD for Specialty Pharma — he specializes in BCS II programs with integrated clinical supply. Tuesday 10:00 AM PT or Wednesday 3:00 PM?
1:42
Tuesday 10am works.
2:02
Booked. Calendar invite plus a brief on Catalent's Greenville and Schorndorf capabilities heading to your inbox. Anything else?
2:10
No, thanks.

How It Works

1

Prospect Calls Any Catalent Number

AI answers instantly — identifies whether the caller belongs to Self Care or Pharma Services and routes accordingly. No voicemail, no hold music.

2

AI Qualifies in Real Time

Asks the same questions your best BD rep would ask — product, dose form, volume, timeline, urgency — and scores the lead live.

3

Meeting Booked, Salesforce Updated

The right BD rep gets a calendar invite, a full briefing, and a Salesforce record — all before the prospect hangs up.
