SAIL is an open model with 35 B total and 3 B active parameters designed for literature research, scientific coding, and multi‑step research workflows. It is developed through a science‑aware improvement loop in which agents built on frontier AI models analyze task failures, create training tasks to address capability gaps, and iterate this process across multiple development cycles. The training pipeline combines supervised fine‑tuning, specialist training, multi‑teacher on‑policy distillation, and agentic reinforcement learning, enabling SAIL to achieve competitive performance on scientific research tasks with fewer parameters than leading open‑weight models.

The paper introduces ScientistTwo, a fully autonomous multi‑agent framework that takes a scientific problem, establishes baselines, generates hypotheses, and coordinates specialized agents to conduct an end‑to‑end discovery cycle without human intervention. It rigorously tests and refines its methods through automated experiments, ablation studies, and a closed‑loop peer‑review engine. Benchmarking against top conferences (ICLR, ICML, NeurIPS) shows that ScientistTwo produces expert‑level, publishable papers and codebases that outperform human state‑of‑the‑art models and receive higher review ratings under automated AI review.
