Science that serves the region

OpenHub Research was founded on a conviction: the most important scientific questions for Southeast Asia are the least funded ones. Transboundary haze, Mekong water stress, agricultural climate risk — these affect 700 million people but attract a fraction of the AI research investment directed at temperate-climate problems.

We are a registered social enterprise in Thailand. By legal covenant, no less than 70% of all profits are reinvested into our scientific mission. Our outputs — code, models, data, publications — are released openly, for free, for everyone.

We operate from our registered research facility in Chang Phueak, Chiang Mai, at the heart of the region we study.

🌿

Climate Resilience

Autonomous AI discovery of causal climate relationships in northern Thailand and the Greater Mekong Subregion.

🔬

Open Science

All research outputs — code, models, datasets, publications — released under Apache 2.0 and CC-BY licences.

🤝

Community Impact

Grounded in Chiang Mai, partnering with local health and environmental organisations including Buddhakaset Health Center.

🌏

Southeast Asia First

Training the next generation of AI-for-science researchers across ASEAN, at world-class quality at regional cost.

What we're working on

Our research applies autonomous AI discovery to climate, environment, and scientific methodology — open-source and openly published.

Climate · Active

ASTRA-Climate

Autonomous causal discovery for climate resilience in Southeast Asia. Applying techniques validated on astronomical survey data to satellite imagery, atmospheric monitoring, and environmental datasets across the Mekong region.

Chiang Mai, Thailand

OpenHub Research (OpenHub Workspace Limited Partnership, License 0503567004064) operates from its registered research facility at 50/5 Huay Kaew Road, Chang Phueak, Chiang Mai — at the heart of the region we study. We are not a virtual organisation. We are rooted in the city and region we study.

Chiang Mai is ground zero for Southeast Asia's transboundary haze crisis, Mekong climate stress, and highland agricultural resilience challenges. We research what matters to the people around us.
