Aster
Aster is the first autonomous research lab — thousands of AI research agents orchestrated in parallel toward a single goal. We're on a mission to automate open-ended research: research that defines its own problems before it can answer them. The future doesn't wait to be defined by benchmarks. Neither do we.

sourceAster is classified as AI agents from source descriptions and fund-directory context. Similar companies below are ranked from offline product facets and meaningful description overlap; category and source affiliation can only strengthen an existing product match. For lookup-created rows, the profile starts as pending enrichment until deeper source collection runs.
Local clusters rerank extracted product concepts and description terms. The generated graph remains the fallback for sparse descriptions: offline reciprocal product-similarity graph: extracted concepts + description terms + bounded category/affiliation boosts. Minimum fallback score: 0; max competitors: 6.

InferEdge
match 56InferEdge builds agentic AI for the buy-side - systems that run autonomously across research, portfolio management, and risk, for equity and fixed income. The point isn't generating a generic note - anyone can do that now. For example, when earnings season hits, our agents produce the quarter's coverage in your analysts' own tone and format, matching how your desk already writes, so it doesn't need a rewrite before it's usable. We build on top of LLMs, turning raw model capability into consisten

Polymath
match 36We’re heading towards a future where AI agents will be able to perform useful work over long horizons, with little or no human supervision. To increase the reliability, performance, and safety of autonomous agents, they must be trained in simulation environments that reflect the real world. Polymath builds simulated worlds for agents to practice and learn through experience. We're a team of researchers and engineers from UC Berkeley, Hume AI, Plaid, and Amazon. We have years of experience post-t
