Who We Are

We are a small engineering team at the Allen Institute for AI, part of AI for the Planet. Our organization works on maritime conservation, food security, disaster resilience, and climate solutions with some of the most impactful organizations on the planet. This team focuses on how we build, ship, and run agentic tools across multiple programs. We work through infrastructure, security, evaluation, user-interfaces, and monitoring for workflows that are highly non-deterministic, and we form product opinions about a field that is still taking shape.

Today, our team supports a few applications

OlmoEarth is an open, end-to-end platform built around our family of foundation models for Earth observation. The OlmoEarth Platform enables our users to create custom fine-tuned models to detect and classify novel geospatial features. The platform handles the full loop: imagery acquisition from Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, and Landsat; annotation; distributed training and inference; and a viewer so the outputs are usable by people who aren't ML experts. Partners today include NASA JPL (wildfire risk), IFPRI (crop mapping in Kenya), Global Mangrove Watch, and the Amazon Conservation Alliance. Read more at https://allenai.org/olmoearth .
