How it works

From a requirement to a decision.

Our AI agents, GPU simulations, and partner labs work as one program that turns what your device needs into a signed decision.

The platform

What happens to your brief.

AI agents turn your requirement into exact limits. Our models then generate and simulate the candidate routes on GPUs, and partner labs test whatever could still change the answer.

The SuperMatics platform

AI agents run every step

  • Plan the runs
  • Call the solvers
  • Read every result
  • Draft the record

You bring

Your requirement

Current, field, temperature, size, and cost

Your device

CAD as STEP, IGES, or mesh

Your line

Tools, precursors, and furnace limits

On the platform · GPUs

  1. LLM agents

    Read

    Your brief, drawings, and papers become exact limits.

  2. Generative models

    Generate

    Our models propose new materials, architectures, and process routes.

  3. GPU-parallel sweeps

    Simulate

    We simulate every route at your operating point.

  4. Ranking algorithms

    Rank

    We grade each route against every limit and record its margin.

Would a test change the ranking?

If yes, the tests go to the bench and their results retrain the models. If no, the ranking stands.

At the bench · Partner labs

  1. Partner labs

    Make

    Partner labs make the samples, at bench or pilot scale.

  2. Partner benches

    Measure

    Each sample is tested at your operating point.

  3. Active learning

    Learn

    Every result, hit or miss, retrains the models.

You get

A decision record

A verdict on every limit, with what would have to change to clear it, signed by a founder.

The difference

We rank the whole route.

A general materials platform stops at the material. We also grade the substrate it sits on and the process that makes it, against every number your device needs.

Our own materials

How we search trillions of compositions.

Most groups treat the search for new superconductors as a race for compute. We cut the problem down to the variables that decide it.

The Modulated Electron Lattice (MEL) framework, licensed exclusively to SuperMatics, predicts which few variables decide whether a material superconducts. GPU sweeps and models trained on real measurements screen only those, so we can search trillions of compositions at a fraction of the compute.

We plan to license the materials we own for a royalty on every unit made.

Trillions of possible compositions.

Brute forceFull physics, one candidate at a time.

  • Five

    proposed materials in synthesis

  • 100 kelvin

    Predicted to superconduct at 100 kelvin or higher, warmer than liquid nitrogen at 77 kelvin

  • At scale

    Each was chosen because it can be manufactured at scale.

None has yet been independently established as superconducting.

An independent experiment at Stanford and SLAC reported a result consistent with a central MEL prediction, with no involvement from SuperMatics. It does not validate the entire framework.The paper, Physical Review Letters (opens in a new tab)

Your data and IP

We agree on data and IP before the first run.

Your inputs stay yours

Designs, materials, and confidential data remain your property.

Ownership of results is agreed up front

Use rights, field exclusivity, joint ownership, or a license are set before any work begins.

Each program has its own workspace

It is encrypted in transit and at rest, and your team signs in with your company’s single sign-on.
