The Edge Between Discovery and Decision

We exist to bridge the gap between fundamental science and the organizations that depend on it.

Our Mission

We partner with national laboratories and leading universities to solve problems that don't have textbook answers. Whether it's modeling nuclear processes, building predictive AI systems, or publishing research that moves entire fields forward, we deliver clarity where complexity lives.

The name Obsidian is intentional. Like volcanic glass — formed under extreme pressure, molecularly sharp, and enduringly useful — our work emerges from the most demanding scientific conditions and delivers precision that cuts through ambiguity.

We publish openly, collaborate broadly, and hold ourselves to the standards of the scientific community we serve. Every engagement is an opportunity to advance not just our clients' goals, but the state of human knowledge.

  • Rigor First

    Every model, every algorithm, every recommendation is built on a foundation of scientific rigor. We don't guess — we derive, validate, and verify.

  • Open Science

    We believe progress accelerates when knowledge is shared. We publish in top-tier journals and contribute to the open scientific record.

  • Impact-Driven

    Beautiful theory means nothing without real-world impact. We measure success by the decisions our work enables and the problems it solves.
