About

Mat3ra is a cloud-based software platform founded in 2014 that enables materials scientists and chemists to design new compounds, run physics-based simulations, and build AI/ML models without managing underlying computational infrastructure. The platform consolidates simulation tools and research data in a single searchable environment, allowing researchers to collaborate and iterate efficiently on complex problems.

The company serves a diverse customer base across multiple sectors, including semiconductor manufacturers, chemical engineering firms, aerospace and automotive companies, as well as government research institutions and universities worldwide. This mix of industrial and academic clients reflects the broad applicability of computational materials science across industries.

Mat3ra was founded by Timur Bazhirov, a physicist with a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley. The platform's design reflects a commitment to streamlining how scientists access and deploy computational tools, replacing fragmented workflows and legacy software with a modern, integrated alternative.
