Locally hosted AI

Your infrastructure. Your tools. Human control.

AI models and agents run within your organization’s infrastructure, alongside your existing EDA tools. The workflow is designed to keep PDKs and confidential design data inside your controlled environment, without relying on external cloud AI services.

Within your organization’s infrastructure

Human oversight

Specifications & constraints · Key decisions · Review & release approval
