Kluz Prize for PeaceTech

Special Distinction for the Use of AI for Peace | 2025

Anadyr Horizon Inc.

United States

Overview

Anadyr Horizon is a venture-backed predictive intelligence company that builds decision infrastructure for the age of strategic surprise. Our Agentic Systems Intelligence (ASI) engine runs millions of high-fidelity simulations to surface hidden escalation pathways, geopolitical anomalies, and decision-maker patterns. We serve national security, finance, and insurance leaders who can't afford to be surprised.

How does your project support peacebuilding and/or conflict resolution efforts in the context of a humanitarian crisis or developmental context?

Anadyr Horizon provides novel insights into crisis signal prediction. Our North Star platform simulates actors under stress and deception to anticipate the signals that drive high-risk outcomes in volatile situations. This capability stress-tests peace strategies, reduces civilian risk, anticipates institutional failure, and times interventions. When real-world signals emerge, our clients' responses are already pre-positioned and outcomes mitigated.

In what ways does your project contribute to the existing PeaceTech ecosystem and research efforts in a compelling way?

Our ASI technology is grounded in decades of research in physics, negotiation, and escalation modeling. Collectively, our founders have published 200+ scientific papers and 20+ books on topics from missile trajectories to terrorist decision-making.

With today's breakthroughs in AI and compute power, we've transformed that record into ASI - an operational platform delivering predictive decision infrastructure directly into boardrooms and situation rooms where it matters most.

With the award funds, how would you expand the scope and applicability of your project or research beyond its initial pilot?

We're a SaaS AI company serving government and financial markets. The Kluz Price reminds us to stay mission-driven - ensuring peace-focused modeling for fragile conflict zones expands alongside high-revenue theaters like Europe and East Asia.

How does your work leverage collaborations and partnerships to unlock new opportunities and maximize impact?

At Anadyr, collaboration is our core. We co-develop with scientists, universities, diplomats, and intelligence leaders. Our investors join our off-sites, working shoulder-to-shoulder with our technical team. We're a hub where people, disciplines, and missions meet to shape better decisions. Because collaboration is the greatest human superpower.

Impact

What is the potential of your work for widespread impact? How do you meaningfully improve the lives of people?

Our co-founders have spent decades building tools for peace - often in places where it felt impossible. One led de-escalation interventions in Afghanistan and the Middle East. Another created cryptographic systems for nuclear disarmament. Another built the world’s largest open-source database on WMDs. Now it all converges in one engine. Anadyr Horizon is an impact multiplier - scaling decades of peacebuilding into a single platform for crisis prevention.
