Chip design
reimagined.
Dramatically reduce the amount of time and people it takes to design and verify a complex semiconductor chip.
Chips have gotten complex. Tools have not modernized.
Until now.
We have put 1000x more transistors on our chips in the last two decades. However, the tooling used to design/verify them has not evolved at the same pace. Result? Designing and verifying a modern chip today takes 100+ engineers more than two years!
At ChipStack, we enable organizations to create the most advanced chips faster and more efficiently than ever before. Our product is a medley of Large Language Models and novel methodology built on a modern software stack. Leveraging ChipStack results in high-design productivity, lowered RTL bugs, and faster time to market.
ChipStack is currently deployed with our early partners. If you'd like to see a demo, reach out!
