The Institute is a Faction in Fallout 4.They are concerned with the preservation of humanity via technology and are involved in the production of Synths which they use as their security force along with their deadly special ops coursers. For the location page of their base see The Institute (Location).
The Institute operates underground beneath a veil of secrecy and do not reveal themselves publicly to the Commonwealth until later in the game. They view the Brotherhood of Steel as a threat to their vision of the future and are diametrically opposed to the synth liberation goals of The Railroad. They will attack both of those factions during their essential quest line.
