Asta

Meet Asta, an agentic ecosystem that advances scientific discovery.

Co-designed with domain scientists, Asta’s mission is to inspire new research methodologies toward novel discoveries while preserving user agency and scientific freedom.

Asta agents

Agentic research assistants to help you accomplish your most difficult scholarly research tasks.

For Scientists

Asta is built to mirror how scientific research is actually done—helping frame research questions, trace ideas to evidence, and clarify what’s established or still unresolved in a field. AstaBench ensures these agents are evaluated against real-world tasks, building trust and scientific rigor.

For AI Developers

AstaBench and Asta resources provide a complete agent evaluation environment and tools to facilitate the creation of production-ready, state-of-the-art agents. AstaBench offers leaderboards and real-world benchmarks that make it easy to test, compare, and iterate on AI agents.

"Ai2's Asta ecosystem of AI agents, benchmarks, and tools … is poised to accelerate the path from hunch to insight, transforming how we navigate the vast landscape of scientific understanding."
