Every PCB goes through the same painful loop. You finish the layout, send it for compliance testing, it fails, you respin, you wait, you pay. Two to three cycles. $50K–$100K each. Weeks lost every round.
DRC tools catch the obvious stuff — trace widths, clearances, spacing. But the failures that actually kill your schedule are the ones DRC can't see: EMC violations, signal integrity issues, thermal risks, manufacturability blind spots. These live in the gap between geometry and physics.
That gap is the last mile. Today, the only way to cross it is a senior engineer with 20 years of intuition reviewing your board by hand. It doesn't scale. There aren't enough of them. And they're expensive.
We're building an AI-powered design review that catches what DRC misses — before your board reaches the test lab. EMC risks, DFM pitfalls, signal integrity red flags, all surfaced during design, not after fabrication.
We're combining expert-annotated design review data with electromagnetic simulation to build a system that reasons about board designs the way an experienced engineer does — but at the speed of software.
The goal is simple: first-pass success. One spin. No surprises in the EMC chamber. No emergency redesigns. No six-figure respin bills.
This is the ground floor of intelligent hardware design.
Our founders are ex-entrepreneurs with backgrounds in electrical engineering and physics, and are backed by people who've spent decades at the intersection of silicon, simulation, and software.
