Research Institute

Applied research across disciplines.

We publish open-source tools and peer-reviewed research. Every project ships code, data, and a paper. The domains grow with the work.

Mission

Build it. Open-source it. Publish it.

The STI Research Institute contributes original research and open-source tools across any discipline where applied science can push the field forward. No fixed lanes — the portfolio expands with every new question worth answering.

Reproducible science. Usable tools. No paywalls.
