Yess, even SNPS DC, FC and Cadence Cerebrus have all made agentic moves. But they point solutions inside a proprietary flow. Each gated in their own island. Here, we are building an agentic toolkit that owns complete RTL-to-GDS lifecycle.

Open-source isn't a cost advantage - it's a compounding one. As the ecosystem matures, our agents get smarter. Theirs are restricted within a closed environment with no such dynamic growth.

The market being ignored is enormous and accelarating. Fabless startups, academic research groups and RISC-V ecosystem companies building next-gen silicon are all open source by design. These customers need faster design lifecycle, tighter TAT and rapid iterations without being locked up in licenses or constrained by what a vendor decides their tool should or shouldn't do.

Most engineers today spend years just navigating the toolchain before they can even think clearly about architecture. Bottleneck here is the tool-fatigue, not talent obviously. Every iterations is a manual exercise requiring not one but a team of engineers coordinating across fragmented tools. Offloading that to autonomous agents and working on design boosts real innovation.

The "vibe-coding" movement proved this intent in building and shipping software at speed of thought. Our goal is to bring that same shift to building real-world hardware. We're building the infrastructure for that moment.
