The Synthesis Company
Active100x faster scientific evidence synthesis
About
We enable research that was previously impossible—systematic reviews of 20,000+ papers in weeks with 98% accuracy. We collaborate with researchers at Stanford, Harvard, and Johns Hopkins to ask the big questions they've been forced to scale down. Pharma companies get complete evidence awareness in weeks — not years. AI labs get the same reviews as RL environments with expert-validated reasoning traces—scientific synthesis as the next frontier after math and coding benchmarks. We're former DSPy core contributors who built the production infrastructure to make total evidence awareness actually work at scale.

He's been called bottled lightning, a 95th percentile AI researcher (after 4 months of self-studying), and a beautiful soul. He enjoys the little moments in a day with coffee, ecstatic dance, and tai chi.
With a Master’s in Computer Science from the University of Calgary and as a key contributor to StanfordNLP's DSPy project, Amir has deep expertise in AI and software engineering. He played a crucial role in engineering at HubMeta and OVOU. His early success running a profitable web hosting business in high school showcases his technical acumen and entrepreneurial drive.
