Aster is a research and product company focusing on automating research. Currently, discovering novel technologies takes years. Our mission is to develop autonomous research systems that compress research into hours. We believe in effectively harnessing the explosion of machine intelligence to make tangible, positive changes in the world.

Current autonomous research systems rely on benchmarkable goals. This drastically limits the potential of these systems. We are pushing towards automating open-ended research to genuinely make new discoveries. Autonomous research will be the most transformative technology of human history, and at this pivotal moment, it’s important that we get this right. Our aim is to develop this technology safely while ensuring it delivers real, tangible benefits to society.
