- Significantly higher performance and capacity
- Ability to run designs exceeding 1 billion gates with 2-10x higher performance than similar products
- Concise, lower noise analysis
- Intuitive user experience with efficient setup and debug of designs
- Advanced, differentiated technology such as Glitch verification, Functional Reset analysis and X-safe verification
History
Real Intent was founded in 1998 with an initial focus on formal verification products (assertion based verification). Although formal technology is still used in our products, in 2010 the company moved in the direction of static sign-off that has led to our current product offerings to accelerate early functional verification and advanced sign-off of digital designs.
The company is funded by Andy Bechtolsheim, founder of successful semiconductor companies including Sun Microsystems. Mr. Bechtolsheim was an initial investor in Google and has also invested in EDA companies including Magma DA and Apache.
