Edison Scientific raises a $70M seed round to scale Kosmos
FutureHouseAI Scientist platform
Edison Scientific, FutureHouse's commercial spinout, closed a $70M seed round to scale Kosmos, an AI scientist that autonomously conducts research at scale. Running for up to 12 hours, Kosmos reads about 1,500 papers and generates 42,000 lines of analysis code per run; independent reviewers judged 79.4% of its outputs accurate.
- Led by Triatomic Capital and Spark Capital at a $250M valuation, with participation from Pillar VC, Susa Ventures, and others.
- Kosmos condenses an estimated six months of research into one day, reading literature and iterating on hypothesis generation.
- Founded by Sam Rodriques and Andrew White; FutureHouse remains a nonprofit focused on foundational research.
