market profile

• text: Frontier labs need evidence of scientific judgment across multi-step physical engineering work, beyond isolated question answering.
• text: Benchmark providers and research organizations offer alternatives across expert evaluation and scientific tasks; direct electrical engineering coverage varies.

personas

• title: Head of model evaluations at a frontier AI lab
  pains:

  • Generic benchmark scores do not show whether a model can reason through lab constraints and unexpected measurements.
  • Building reproducible electrical engineering tasks requires scarce domain expertise.
• title: AI for science research lead
  pains:

  • Cannot confidently tell whether model improvements translate to physical experiments.
  • Long-running research tasks combine software, measurement and iteration that are difficult to grade.

icp

• text: Frontier model developers with dedicated evaluation teams and a mandate to improve scientific or engineering capabilities; account size and budget thresholds are unverified.
• text: AI research organizations working on model performance in physical sciences or engineering, especially teams with access to experimental infrastructure.

message pillars

• text: Measure scientific judgment across the research process.
• text: Benchmark long-horizon engineering work.
• text: Turn failures into actionable, reproducible targets.

objections

• objection: Our internal team can build evaluations.
  response: Compare the cost and coverage of internal tasks with an independent, domain-expert benchmark incorporating physical measurements.
• objection: Simulated performance may not predict lab performance.
  response: Ask for evidence from tasks that combine simulation, experimental measurements and physical constraints; validate with a pilot.

competitors
