From bits to Silicon

A new foundation for chip design

AI will change how chips are designed. We envision a design system that AI can inspect, adapt, and improve—from the chip architecture to the tools that implement it.

An open foundation makes that possible, helping teams build more advanced chips in less time and at lower cost.

The best implementation for every chip

We build calculators for AI that builds silicon: tools and environments that adapt to each design and its constraints.

By improving the chip and the implementation tools together, we help teams explore more possibilities and find better results.

Across the full chip design stack.

We are researchers and engineers in chip architecture, physical design, design automation, verification, compilers, machine learning, and optimization.

Team members have contributed to more than a dozen successful tapeouts and to research and engineering across the open-source chip design stack, including CIRCT, Yosys, OpenROAD, and KLayout.
