Free AI coding agents for scientists and researchers
Factory believes the best scientific software shouldn't be bottlenecked by engineering capacity. We're offering free Droid access to researchers, labs, and academic institutions pushing the boundaries of science.
Built for the software that powers discovery
From training foundation models to analyzing particle collisions, Droids understand the unique demands of scientific codebases.
ML & AI Research
Model training pipelines, distributed inference systems, and experiment tracking infrastructure. Droids help you write training loops, optimize CUDA kernels, and build evaluation harnesses faster.
Biological Research
Genomics pipelines, protein structure prediction tools, and bioinformatics workflows. Automate the development of analysis code for sequencing data, molecular simulations, and lab automation systems.
High Energy Physics
Detector simulation, event reconstruction, and data acquisition systems. Droids work with ROOT, Geant4, and the massive C++/Python codebases that power particle physics experiments at national labs.
Climate & Earth Science
Climate models, satellite data processing, and environmental monitoring systems. Accelerate development of simulation codes, data assimilation pipelines, and visualization tools for planetary-scale datasets.
Aerospace & Astrophysics
Orbital mechanics simulations, telescope data pipelines, and mission planning software. From N-body solvers to spectral analysis tools, Droids help you ship research code that works.
Computational Mathematics
Numerical solvers, optimization libraries, and scientific computing frameworks. Droids understand HPC patterns, MPI parallelism, and the performance-critical code that underpins computational research.
Factory for Science provides free access to Droid for qualified researchers and scientific institutions. Whether you're an individual researcher or an entire lab, we want to help you spend less time on boilerplate and more time on breakthroughs.
Removing the engineering bottleneck from science
For Labs & Institutions
Team licenses for your research group
Apply on behalf of your lab, department, or research group. We provide team-level access with admin controls, so your PI or lab manager can onboard researchers and manage usage.
For Individual Researchers
Personal licenses for solo scientists
Graduate students, postdocs, and independent researchers can apply individually. All you need is an institutional email or evidence of active research to qualify for a free personal license.
