In the global race for the creation of an “AI Scientist” capable of making scientific discoveries independently, the Korean startup Pluto Labs is a lot talked about. While technological giants such as Google and Anthropic define their competitiveness by their raw calculation power, Pluto Labs presents “Scinapse AI”, a revolutionary model which develops a more effective scientist for only a tenth of the usual cost of calculation, and which obtains overwhelming performance compared to the best models during blind evaluations.
Pluto Labs is the pioneer of an “strategic efficiency” architecture, which reflects the way in which human scientists optimize their research. Instead of using brute force (such as Google’s “co-scientist”), Scinapse Ai intelligently delegates ineffective tasks, such as sorting large amounts of data, to its existing Scinapse university research system (used by 170,000 researchers). This allows AI to focus exclusively on creative reasoning and generation of new ideas, which results in unrivaled practicality and profitability.
The higher performance of Scinapse AI was proven during the blind assessments judged by the models of AI of its direct competitors (Openai O3, Claude 4 opus of Anthropic and Gemini 2.5 Pro from Google). Scinapse AI has regularly classified n ° 1 in terms of “plausibility” (reality and relevance of an idea) and “testability” (ease of experimental validation of an idea) in 61 different scientific fields. This confirms that SCINAPSE AI provides “real scientific hypotheses which are practical to implement and can be validated experimentally within 3 to 5 years”, which represents a significant leap forward, going from “plausible fiction” to “exploitable scientific research”.
Pluto Labs has developed a robust system to eliminate the “hallucinations” (erroneous information) of AI, a major obstacle in the field of scientific AI. All SCINAPSE AI ideas are strictly based on a database of 260 million university articles. This system dynamically refines research to obtain very precise data and rigorously cuts ideas with the database in order to guarantee real novelty, thus identifying actually new scientific perspectives. “He brings the most complete answer to the question that most challenges researchers:” Is this idea really new? ” “Said Changshin Jo de Postech. “The AI performs in a few minutes a review of publications which would take days, even weeks, to a human researcher, with greater precision. It is not only a tool for generation of ideas, but an innovation that fundamentally changes the starting point for research planning. »»
With cumulative funding of 5 billion KRW (approximately 3.6 million USD), Pluto Labs is ideally placed to revolutionize the world race for “AI Scientists”. Its “effective” and “practical” approach, combined with its well -established Scinapse platform, distinguishes it from its competitors. “The fact that a small Korean startup turned out to be higher than Google in an objective performance test is more than a simple technical feat, it is a symbolic event for innovative leadership,” said Simon Kim, Managing Director of Hashed. “This shows that success in the field of advanced AI can be achieved thanks to a creative resolution of problems and a strategic conception, and not only thanks to infinite capital. This is an important step which indicates the future management of the world ecosystem of AI, suggesting a new path for the development of AI agents. »The global official launch of Scinapse AI is scheduled for the 3rd quarter of 2025.
