About Collinear
At Collinear, we help teams fearlessly ship AI.
Frontier labs and AI-native companies use our SimLab to find capability gaps in their agents and generate high-quality data to close them. We believe that the next generation of AI progress won't come from just bigger models, but from more rigorous, long-horizon simulation and programmatic verification.
SimLab allows researchers to spin up realistic environments, run agents through complex tasks, and surface failure modes under real-world conditions. We then close the loop by generating targeted synthetic data to retrain models, delivering measurable quality lift on the metrics that actually matter.
