About hardware intelligence
Hardware Intelligence makes chip design tools that cut simulation and debugging time by an order of magnitude. When a chip test fails, engineers need a recording of every internal signal - a waveform. We’ve developed WaveZip, which captures waveforms 500x smaller with 200x less overhead, and Wave, which beats frontier models on industry chip debugging benchmarks. We’re Rishov Sarkar (Georgia Tech Ph.D. in chip simulation) and Athreya Anand (ex-Google, M.S. ML/AI), YC S26. https://hardwareintelligence.ai
