Discovery Loop
Discovery Loop is building AI systems that automate the entire scientific experimental loop—proposing, running, and learning from evaluations—to compress iteration time from months to days. The company starts by automating machine learning research and engineering, using its own technology stack as the first customer before expanding to other science and engineering domains. Its systems are designed to tackle National Academy of Engineering Grand Challenges, including better medicines, clean water, and economical solar energy.

Problem
Scientific progress relies on sequential, manual experimental loops—proposing an experiment, implementing it, running it, examining results, and iterating—which are slow and labor-intensive. This manual approach limits the scale and speed of discovery across science and engineering domains, bottlenecking innovation.
Solution
Discovery Loop automates the entire experimental loop, enabling the parallel execution of thousands of experiments and drastically compressing iteration time. The company initially focuses on automating machine learning research and engineering, using these capabilities to rapidly optimize its own technology stack before expanding to other domains. Its AI systems are designed to automatically solve important problems in machine learning, science, and engineering, and ultimately take on National Academy of Engineering Grand Challenges such as engineering better medicines, advancing health informatics, making solar energy economical, providing access to clean water, and securing cyberspace.
Target Audience
The primary audience is research teams and engineering organizations in machine learning, science, and engineering domains that require faster iteration cycles and scalable experimentation to accelerate discovery.
