principia labs

Most scientific breakthroughs begin as math problems. A new drug, a faster algorithm, a better material— somewhere at the root is a piece of mathematics someone had to work out by hand. That's slow. There aren't enough mathematicians, and the problems are getting harder.

We train our own models, from scratch, to do original mathematical and scientific reasoning.

We're a small research lab in San Francisco. Our researchers have contributed to DeepSeek V3, FrontierMath, Kimi 1.5, and Tinker. If you want to work on this, write to hiring@principialabs.org.
