Think it. Type it. Tape it.
Revolutionizing analog chip design with AI.
Unlike digital, which has been largely automated for decades, analog IC design remains a manual craft — demanding years of specialist intuition. The world is running out of analog designers just as demand accelerates.
Voltage varies continuously. Every point on the scale is a valid, distinct value — infinite resolution, but hard to design.
Only discrete states exist. 3 bits encode 5 fixed levels — simple to automate, but resolution is bounded by bit-depth.
The physical world is analog. Wherever circuits must interface with reality — signals, power, sensors, RF — analog wins on efficiency and fidelity by fundamental physics.
The automation of analog chip design has gone from impossible to inevitable. AI can now learn human design intuition, dramatically increase throughput, and dismantle one of hardware's most stubborn bottlenecks. Samurai is leading that revolution — starting with schematics.
Britain has been at the heart of chip design since its earliest days. We're proud to be building its future here too. The founding team sets off with Oxford and Cambridge foundations, forty years of hands-on expertise, and a vision to unlock what analog design has never before been able to achieve.
