Technology

The orchestration layer behind experimental R&D.

Scalarity provides the runtime, state layer, integrations, and provenance system that let models and agents safely operate across real research workflows.

01 Model interface 02 Agent runtime 03 Provenance log
01
Policy boundary

Human review + governance

Approval gates, permissions, safety thresholds, and escalation rules sit above agent execution.

02
Runtime

Agent orchestration

Scoped agents receive context, tools, memory, and task policies before acting.

03
State layer

Workflow state + provenance

Recipes, runs, outputs, anomalies, model calls, and decisions remain linked.

04
Execution boundary

Models, tools, instruments

Connect to compute, databases, instruments, lab tools, and internal model infrastructure.

In practice

Built for the way R&D actually runs.

The architecture matters because research work is messy: models, instruments, notebooks, approvals, process constraints, and human judgment all need to stay connected.

Manufacturing R&D

Connect recipes, tools, and validation records.

  • Keep process windows, equipment constraints, and safety limits in context.
  • Link recipe versions to runs, measurements, anomalies, and approvals.
  • Make process iteration traceable before handoff to scale-up or production.
Academic & lab R&D

Connect hypotheses, instruments, and group memory.

  • Bring literature, prior experiments, notebooks, and instrument data into one workflow.
  • Preserve reasoning and failed experiments across students, projects, and grants.
  • Make methods, measurements, and decisions easier to reproduce and report.
Architecture

System primitives for scientific workflows.

The platform separates model calls, agent execution, workflow state, integrations, and provenance so each layer can be swapped, governed, and audited independently.

01
Model interface

Any model, governed per task

Route to LLMs, fine-tunes, physics models, surrogate models, or internal predictors with per-agent policies.

Example: route a thin-film recipe through a surrogate model, then escalate low-confidence predictions for review.

02
Agent runtime

Controlled execution

Agents receive scoped context, tools, permissions, memory, and escalation rules for each step.

Example: allow a metrology agent to request SEM/XRD data, but not approve a chamber run.
ToolsMemoryPermissions
03
Workflow state

Structured research objects

Recipes, experiments, process windows, constraints, approvals, outputs, and anomalies stay linked.

Example: link recipe version, chamber settings, metrology file, anomaly note, and approval.

04
Integration layer

Connects to your environment

HPC, cloud, VPC, on-prem systems, knowledge bases, databases, instruments, and lab tools.

Example: connect to HPC queues, ELNs, LIMS, instruments, databases, or shared file stores.

Research flow

How a research task moves from question to record.

Whether the task is a process recipe, formulation change, characterization request, or literature-backed hypothesis, Scalarity keeps context, approvals, data, and decisions connected.

start.from_context()

Start from the research context

Pull in prior runs, process constraints, literature, notebook history, instrument data, and the scientist’s objective.

evaluate.next_step()

Evaluate the next best step

Use approved models, simulations, search, or analysis tools to compare recipes, candidates, process windows, or hypotheses.

prepare.research_action()

Prepare an actionable recommendation

Generate a recipe change, experiment plan, characterization request, compute job, or report draft with supporting rationale.

request.approval()

Pause where judgment matters

Escalate safety limits, uncertain predictions, anomalous data, equipment changes, or final go/no-go decisions to the researcher.

commit.to_record()

Commit the outcome to the record

Link inputs, parameters, model/tool calls, approvals, measurements, failures, and conclusions so the next cycle starts smarter.

Deployment

Designed for controlled R&D environments.

The same architecture can run against hosted services, private infrastructure, or air-gapped systems while preserving traceability and policy controls.

Model abstractionSwitch between frontier APIs, internal fine-tunes, open weights, or air-gapped systems without rewriting workflows.
Flexible deploymentRun hosted, in a VPC, on-prem, or inside controlled research environments.
Policy and traceabilityReview gates, permissions, model calls, tool calls, and decisions are captured as part of the system record.
