Boston Metal is an industrial metals and materials company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, with a wholly owned subsidiary and commercial plant in Brazil. The company commercializes Molten Oxide Electrolysis (MOE), a one-step electrochemical process that uses clean electricity rather than fossil fuels to reduce iron ore into liquid metal, producing steel with no direct CO2 emissions, and to recover high-value critical metals such as niobium and tantalum from low-grade ore and mining waste. Boston Metal commissioned a multi-inert-anode industrial MOE cell at its Woburn facility and has raised over $500 million from investors including Tata Steel. Boston Metal is a physical process-technology and manufacturing company; it publishes no public developer API, SDK, OpenAPI definition, developer portal, or machine-readable contract of any kind. This profile captures its public web, corporate, and domain-security posture only.
