What we build
Models that turn scarce physical data into decisions.
Physical-world AI has a different bottleneck than internet AI. The valuable data is sparse, expensive, and tied to real operations. Coactive builds the loop that chooses the next measurement and learns from the result.
Select the next best measurement.
Active learning guides which satellite tile, field sample, or laboratory experiment should happen next to reduce uncertainty fastest.
Move from model output to field action.
Recommendations are built for scientists and operators working in mines, labs, coastlines, and other physical environments.
The thesis
Measure what matters next.
There is no Common Crawl for atoms. Satellite time, field sampling, wet-lab chemistry, and drilling assays all cost money and time. The hard problem is deciding which next measurement creates the most learning.
Coactive builds the model and the decision loop together: sense, score, sample, test, update, and deploy.

Critical minerals
A sharper way to find and characterize strategic resources.
Coactive combines hyperspectral imagery, geological context, legacy assays, and active-learning field plans to prioritize critical-mineral sites across the western United States.
Orbit to onsite
The model becomes more valuable when it touches the ground.
A permitted Colorado mine partnership turns the AI story into an operating story: satellite screening, drone context, field sampling, assay results, and updated site priors in one feedback loop.

The Platform
One learning loop across physical-world domains.
The same active-learning primitive applies wherever measurement is expensive and decisions compound. From orbital hyperspectral sensing to edge-AI, our platform turns sparse physical data into operational intelligence.
Hyperspectral Substrate
Measured biochemistry at planetary scale.
Hyperspectral imagery provides a richer signal than RGB imagery alone. It adds a critical layer of chemistry, allowing the model to detect specific species, minerals, chemical plumes, and contamination. This single sensing layer provides the foundation for identifying mineral signatures, vegetation stress, and surface disturbances.

Other Applications
Extending the platform across domains.
Coastal Resilience & Aquaculture
Predictive intelligence and operational monitoring for marine environments. We track primary bio-indicators like chlorophyll-a to provide up to 72-hour drift forecasts for sargassum accumulation and early-warning alerts for Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs).

Precision Agriculture (Saarang)
Actionable insights for high-value crops like tea and olives. By monitoring crop health in real-time, the platform proactively detects biotic stress from pests (e.g., Helopeltis, Red Spider) and abiotic stress, allowing estates to optimize inputs and maximize yield.
AI for science
Lab workstream integration makes the loop concrete.
Coactive works where every experiment matters. Active learning selects the next chemistry, biology, or characterization experiment and turns each result into a better model.
CICERO autonomous separations
Agentic workflows for critical-materials recovery and separations chemistry.
MIME microbial recovery
Residual learning over biological datasets to predict metal-ion recovery.
Active sampling and ATLAS integration
Sampling pipelines for in-situ characterization of permitted sites.
Join the mission
Build models that operate in the material world.
We are assembling a small team across machine learning, geospatial data, experimental science, and field operations. The work is technical, urgent, and tied to real-world outcomes.
Strategic partnerships
The material world needs models that know what to measure next.
