Thompson Foundry Innovations

Thompson Foundry Innovations (TFI) researches complex problems and builds systems that gather scattered information, connect evidence and make findings easier to understand and act on. Its work begins with studying how a problem operates and what the evidence shows, then shaping and testing technology for the task.

At the heart of TFI’s offerings is Discover Engine, a proprietary research and discovery system. It searches multiple sources, collects web results, public records and user-provided files, and links findings to their origins. It also highlights conflicts and missing information, supporting repeatable research that people can review and verify.

TFI applies this foundation to products for different needs. TFI Signals is a free check that helps local business owners see what customers find when searching for their business. TFI Titrant compares options against weighted criteria and creates decision packages for human approval, for defense and commercial use. Other tools include Thought Ledger for organizing notes and research, Waypoint for identifying next steps as situations change, and The Workshop for turning student notes into study materials. TFI also offers custom systems and researches local business discovery through its MainStreet Local initiative.
