Today we’re making a crazy promise to chip companies: we’ll erase every waveform dump run on your farm, cut your storage 100x, and hand your engineers back days from unnecessary simulation.
Might sound impossible, but we’re serious.
🗜️Introducing WaveZip by @hwintelligence!
Excited to finally launch!
We’re proud to launch @hwintelligence (YC S26): AI tools for the chips your AI runs on.
Our first product is Wave, a terminal-native waveform debugger with a verification agent built-in. And it’s just the start.
If you design or verify chips—ASICs or FPGAs—we’d love to talk!

Super excited to announce that Rishov (@ArkaneMoose) and I are building hardware intelligence (@hwintelligence ) at @ycombinator! 🚀
Leaving Google and a PhD, we wanted to build something big. We found it in something small: chips.
Right now, the industry is bolting AI onto extremely incumbent EDA tools — but the focus is fundamentally backwards. AI hardware development can only be as fast as the underlying tools. That's why we're building agent-native workflows for chip design.
If you work in hardware, FPGA, or ASIC design, I’d love to chat!
