Most of the materials powering today’s technologies were discovered decades ago. Humans have only ever discovered about 50,000 to 100,000 crystalline materials out of a search space of at least hundreds of millions. The opportunity space is vast, and conventional methods can’t unlock it. The combination of AI and deep domain expertise enables discovery of the next breakthrough material, validated in the real world.
