Tattvam AI, a deeptech startup focused on using AI to automate semiconductor chip design, has raised $1.7 million in a pre-seed funding round.
The round was led by Seedcamp, with participation from EWOR, Entropy Industrial Ventures, Concept Ventures, and semiconductor angel investor Stan Boland.
The startup will use the funds to expand its engineering team, accelerate research, bring its first product to market, and strengthen partnerships with major chip design teams.
“Current AI tools, even the most advanced LLMs, struggle with the deep structural understanding that chip design demands. We’re building a reasoning model that actually understands circuits from first principles – the constraints, the tradeoffs, the interdependencies – the same way a world-class engineer would and doing it in a fraction of the time,” said Bragadeesh Suresh Babu, CEO and co-founder, Tattvam AI.
“Bragadeesh is one of the most driven, energetic and compelling young founders in today’s chip industry. His conviction that Tattvam AI will dramatically speed-up the complex and iterative process of using EDA tools and models to design chips, cutting timelines from years to weeks, is sure to be embraced by the world’s top teams” said Stan Boland, former founder and CEO at Icera and Element 14.
Tattvam AI was co-founded last year by Bragadeesh Suresh Babu and Lannan Jiang.
The company aims to make semiconductor development faster. It helps design chips for specific purposes, which can improve the overall performance of systems.
