Problem
Chip design verification consumes more than 60% of development time, with frequent handoffs between design and verification teams causing schedule delays, higher costs, and a shortage of verification expertise.
Solution
ChipStack offers a suite of agentic AI verification agents that integrate early in the RTL design flow to automate and accelerate verification tasks. Its Mental Model, Formal, Unit Simulation, and UVM AI agents generate testbenches, create formal properties, run unit-level simulations, and manage UVM environments with minimal human intervention. By leveraging large language models and domain-specific knowledge, the platform reduces manual effort, shortens verification cycles, and enables engineers to focus on higher‑level design challenges. Results and artifacts are produced in standard formats compatible with existing EDA toolchains, facilitating seamless adoption within current workflows.
Target Audience
Primary customers are semiconductor companies, ASIC/FPGA design houses, and verification teams that need to reduce verification time and reliance on scarce expertise.
