About

TauOpt is built by Talaria Scientific, the computational-science product line of Distributional. Talaria Scientific makes Talaria, a multi-agent harness for computational science research, and TauOpt, the Bayesian optimization engine. TauOpt runs on its own, in-process or against the hosted service.

Scott Clark is the co-founder and CEO of Distributional, building Talaria Scientific, a multi-agent harness for computational science research. He was previously co-founder and CEO of SigOpt, a YC-and-a16z-backed Bayesian optimization platform acquired by Intel in 2020, where he then served as VP & GM of AI and HPC supercomputing through 2023. He holds a PhD in applied mathematics and an MS in computer science from Cornell University, where he was a Department of Energy Computational Science Graduate Fellow.
