Verific at the 2024 Design Automation Conference

Verific Design Automation will host two well-funded AI EDA startups and latest users of Verific’s front-end platform in its Design Automation Conference (DAC) booth, affirming its position as the leading provider of front-end platforms powering an emerging market.

Primis.ai and Silimate, both founded by former chip designers, will be in the Verific AI showcase in booth #1414 presenting their unique use of AI technology to eliminate error-prone repetitive tasks for efficient and more productive chip design. They employ Verific’s unsurpassed language support for fast, accurate LLM development, speeding time to market for products that range from functional verification, chip design to code development.

PrimisAI offers a generative AI solution for chip design with advanced language-to-code and language-to-verification capabilities through its interactive AI assistant to address complex hardware challenges across the entire design stack from concept to bitstream/GDSII. RapidGPT, unveiled earlier this year, lets engineers interact with their design and the entire EDA ecosystem with a natural language interface, boosting productivity and accelerating time-to-market. Founded by serial entrepreneur Naveed Sherwani who serves as chairman and CEO, Primis.ai is backed by two early-stage investors.

Silimate, backed by Y Combinator, is building the co-pilot for chip designers to help build better chips faster. Silimate finds functional bugs, predicts power, performance and area (PPA) issues, and recommends real and accurate fixes in real time, and is already being used by chip teams building complex IP and SoCs. Co-founders Ann Wu and Akash Levy previously built chips and EDA tools at Apple, Stanford, NVIDIA, and Synopsys.

Metalware, co-founded by Ryan Chow and Andrew Nedea, is also an AI EDA startup employing Verific’s front-end parser platforms. With initial funding from Y Combinator, Metalware has the mission to accelerate embedded development using AI technology after personally experiencing repeated bottlenecks in embedded software at SpaceX. The Metalware AI EDA tools help designers rapidly write HDL and embedded C/C++ by combining insights from manuals, datasheets and code, offering 10x faster development by automating low-level programming.

Another AI EDA startup in stealth mode is also a new Verific customer that will be announced shortly.

PrimisAI and Silimate will be in the Verific DAC Booth #1414 at various times of the day to give 10-minute presentations. Stop by the booth for a listing of times.

Verific will also demonstrate the latest releases of its SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL and UPF front-end parser platforms.

Of course, this year’s giveaway will be the Verific Giraffe. Stop by to get one. To arrange a demonstration or private meeting, send email to info@verific.com

DAC registration is open.
