optimizes photonic circuits in real time
You simulate optical circuits and solve Maxwell's equations. We just do it faster.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still tell when the vendor's fabrication process is physically impossible to execute.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 4
Our software stops requiring you to tweak your own mesh settings.
Month 4
Automated tools flag foundry errors before you even finish drawing.
Month 11
The AI proposes layouts that achieve your target metrics automatically.
Month 19
Machines communicate directly with fabrication houses to lock in specs.
