ChipStack, a leading startup providing agentic AI solutions for chip verification, and Cadence have announced an agreement for ChipStack to join the agentic AI team at Cadence.
Founded by technologists with deep expertise in both AI and semiconductor design, ChipStack’s generative AI-driven platform helps accelerate design and verification workflows through deep design understanding, intelligent test planning, test generation, and AI-assisted debugging.
This acquisition builds on the existing multi-year collaboration between Cadence and ChipStack, which integrated Cadence’s Xcelium Logic Simulator, Jasper Formal Verification Platform, and other industry-leading front-end verification technologies with ChipStack’s platform. The addition of ChipStack’s talented team and technology further strengthens Cadence’s AI platform and silicon agents. By embedding ChipStack’s AI agents into the Cadence full-flow verification solutions, customers can move from weeks to days in functional verification, scale productivity without proportional headcount, and shorten their time to market for critical projects.
ChipStack’s technology is deployed at many leading chip teams, and Cadence is committed to maintaining and expanding ChipStack’s offerings and roadmap without interruptions, now backed by Cadence’s global support, security, and infrastructure. Over time, these capabilities will be seamlessly integrated into Cadence’s full-flow verification portfolio, ensuring customers gain the full benefit of a unified, AI-powered solution with the same experience and trust they’ve built with ChipStack.
We are delighted to welcome the entire ChipStack team to Cadence and look forward to driving the next generation of AI-driven chip design automation together.
