Periodic Labs

AI for scientific discovery

Periodic Labs is building scientific superintelligence to accelerate discovery in the physical sciences. The company's platform combines frontier AI models, physics-based simulations, and autonomous robotic laboratories to create a closed-loop system where AI scientists can generate hypotheses, design experiments, and learn from outcomes.

Founded by Liam Fedus, who co-created ChatGPT at OpenAI, and Dogus Cubuk, who led materials AI at Google DeepMind, Periodic Labs' mission is to build the technology infrastructure for scientific discovery driven by AI.
