Athreya Anand
Founder of hardware intelligence, AI tools for the chips your AI runs on
Company
Athreya Anand is listed as a founder of hardware intelligence. Hardware Intelligence makes chip design tools that cut simulation and debugging time by an order of magnitude. When a chip test fails, engineers need a recording of every internal signal - a waveform. We’ve developed WaveZip, which captures waveforms 500x smaller with 200x less overhead, and Wave, which beats frontier models on industry chip debugging benchmarks. We’re Rishov Sarkar (Georgia Tech Ph.D. in chip simulation) and Athreya Anand (ex-Google, M.S. ML/AI), YC S26. https://hardwareintelligence.ai

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.
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!

We’re proud to launch @hwintelligence (YC S26): AI tools for the chips your AI runs on.
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.

Added some animation elements! What do you think? Is the background better or should I remove it? https://t.co/vP6nZzGOjE

Another personal website update!! - went ahead and removed the background since it felt unnecessary - added some fun physics to the pills - added a couple easter eggs 👀 Check it out @ https://t.co/nal3tOUkUo and lmk what y'all think! What should I add next?
