AI Co-Scientist that automates ML experimentation and analysis.
Key people at Sciloop.
Sciloop was founded in 2025 by Osman Siddique (Founder) and Bilal Asmatullah (Founder).
Sciloop is building an AI Co-Scientist that automates experimentation and analysis for machine learning researchers, allowing them to test ideas far faster than today’s tools allow. We are Bilal and Osman, International Physics Olympiad medalists and the only Pakistanis admitted to MIT in our respective years, with several years of hands-on ML research experience inside MIT CSAIL. We have built large-scale training pipelines, worked with terabyte-scale datasets, and seen the research bottleneck firsthand while contributing to scientific ML projects. We left MIT to solve this problem directly and are now building a system that can eventually accelerate scientific discovery itself.

Key people at Sciloop.
Sciloop is an AI-driven platform that acts as a Co-Scientist to automate the entire machine learning (ML) research workflow, from hypothesis generation through experiment design, execution, analysis, and even drafting research papers. It serves ML researchers, research labs, and ML teams by accelerating experimentation speed and improving research scalability, allowing users to focus on ideas rather than infrastructure. The core problem Sciloop addresses is the slow, labor-intensive nature of ML experimentation and analysis, which traditionally requires extensive manual effort. By automating these tasks, Sciloop significantly reduces research time from days to hours, enabling faster scientific progress. The company is gaining early traction with adoption in MIT research groups and partnerships with real ML problem solvers, demonstrating promising growth momentum in the AI research automation space[1][2][6].
Sciloop was founded by Bilal and Osman, both International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) medalists and former MIT students with four years of experience applying machine learning across research domains. Their idea emerged while working at MIT CSAIL, where they observed how large language models (LLMs) could assist with literature review and hypothesis generation. Inspired by Stanford research showing LLMs can generate novel hypotheses surpassing domain experts, they envisioned automating the entire research loop. This led to building Sciloop, a platform that autonomously manages the research lifecycle. Early traction includes use by MIT research groups and early partners, validating the concept and utility of automating ML research workflows[1][2].
Sciloop rides the wave of AI-driven automation in scientific research, particularly leveraging advances in large language models and multi-agent AI systems that mimic the scientific method. The timing is critical as AI capabilities have matured to a point where they can meaningfully accelerate hypothesis generation and experimental iteration, traditionally slow and manual processes. Market forces favor tools that can speed up discovery in competitive fields like ML, physics, and biomedical research. By automating laborious research tasks, Sciloop contributes to a broader ecosystem shift towards AI-augmented science, potentially enabling breakthroughs at unprecedented speeds and scales. This aligns with a growing trend of AI co-scientists and multi-agent systems designed to augment human researchers and democratize access to advanced scientific workflows[1][3][5].
Looking ahead, Sciloop aims to fully automate scientific discovery, packing a century of progress into a few years by continuously improving its AI co-scientist capabilities. Future trends shaping its journey include advances in AI reasoning, multi-agent collaboration, and cloud compute scalability. As AI becomes more accessible and smarter, Sciloop’s influence could expand beyond ML research into other scientific domains, accelerating breakthroughs in medicine, materials science, and fundamental physics. Its success will depend on broad adoption by research institutions and integration with diverse scientific workflows. Ultimately, Sciloop exemplifies the transformative potential of AI to redefine how science is conducted, making research faster, more reproducible, and more innovative[1][2][5].
