Problem
Integrated circuit (IC) design faces increasing complexity, leading to higher design costs, lower yields, and extended time to market for fabless design companies. Traditional methods struggle to handle the scale and complexity of modern chip design, hindering innovation and profitability.
Solution
Motivo provides AI and machine learning-powered solutions for IC design analytics and optimization, enabling a data-driven design approach. Their technology accelerates IC time to market and improves yield ramps by applying proprietary learning-on-graph methodology for automated data-driven feature extraction across the entire design flow, from RTL code to layout geometries. Motivo's explainable AI modules deliver improvements in cycle time, resulting in reduced costs, improved reliability and yield, better quality, and faster time to market.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes fabless design companies seeking to improve their yields and accelerate the ramp of new products, as well as Fortune 500 companies working on both mature and new technology nodes.
