Problem
Operators and regulators in the nuclear sector must navigate billions of pages of technical and regulatory documentation, often using legacy tools that are slow, inaccurate, and require manual effort. This hampers timely compliance, outage planning, and safety analysis, increasing operational costs and risk.
Solution
Atomic Canyon provides an AI‑powered search and retrieval platform called Neutron that is trained on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s ADAMS database and runs on the world’s fastest supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The system uses the proprietary FERMI family of open‑source sentence‑embedding models, which understand nuclear terminology and deliver search results up to 40 % more accurate than conventional solutions. Deployed on‑site at PG&E’s Diablo Canyon Power Plant and hosted on secure cloud infrastructure, Neutron accelerates document access from hours to seconds, supporting compliance, outage planning, and safety reviews. An enterprise version, Neutron Enterprise, adds secure integration with existing on‑premises or hybrid data stores, OCR, and retrieval‑augmented generation to enable unified search across siloed repositories. By offering the technology free for basic use and enterprise‑grade services for large facilities, Atomic Canyon helps nuclear stakeholders modernize data workflows while maintaining strict security and regulatory standards.
Target Audience
Primary customers are nuclear power plant operators, manufacturers of next‑generation reactors, government agencies, and national laboratories that require fast, accurate access to regulatory and technical documentation.
