AI-NATIVE RFIC PLATFORM
The best RF design comes down to intuition - impossible to teach, hard to scale. We're building the AI that has it.
THE FUTURE OF RFIC DESIGN
Time
Designing a single RFIC by hand can take weeks to months. Circuit Studio takes a spec to a tapeout-ready layout in a single work session, typically about an hour: up to 100× faster design.* The same team can take on more designs without adding headcount.

By hand: weeks to months. With Circuit Studio: about an hour. Up to 100× faster. Estimated.
Expertise
RF talent is scarce, and many of the most experienced engineers are nearing retirement. Circuit Studio's model, HeaviMind, brings that expertise to every design, so your team gets expert-level results with fewer mistakes and re-tapeouts. The biggest gains come on the hardest designs, like power amplifiers.
Design effort by device type
By hand, effort grows with complexity; with Circuit Studio it stays nearly flat, so the saving is largest on power amplifiers. Illustrative.
Iterations
By hand, a design goes round the same loop again and again: schematic, simulation, layout, EM check, and back to the schematic whenever a result misses spec. Circuit Studio generates, optimizes and verifies against spec in one straight pass, without the back-and-forth.
Getting to spec
By hand, every layout or EM surprise sends the design back a step. Circuit Studio closes the gap in one pass. Illustrative.
AI-native
Most AI in EDA is a language model bolted onto a legacy tool: it can answer questions, but it can't design. Circuit Studio is AI-native: the AI isn't an add-on, it's the engine that does the design. HeaviMind's RF intuition is trained on real circuits, not text, so it does the heavy lifting and leaves the decisions to you.
Who does the design work
In both flows the engineer makes the decisions. An AI assistant makes the heavy lifting easier; Circuit Studio does it. Illustrative.

WHO BUILDS ON RAPIDRF
Whether you're an independent design house or a defense prime, teams use Circuit Studio wherever GaAs and GaN MMICs are on the critical path.
Ship more LNAs, PAs, and drivers per year without growing headcount.
Radar, EW, and phased-array programs that need MMICs on schedules primes can't wait on.
Ground terminals and payloads, where mass and schedule both matter.
Front-end RFICs for 5G/6G buildouts and point-to-point microwave links.
Running a pipeline, tuning layouts, and downloading GDS-II all happen inside the real platform. Create a free account, or talk it through with the RF engineers who built it.

Every design exports as standard SnP and GDS-II - re-simulate in your own EM solver, or plug straight into your existing design bench. No lock-in.
THE VISION
Circuit Studio brings the whole RFIC design flow into one platform, from transistor models to tapeout-ready layout.
DANTE builds accurate device models directly from measured device data, most importantly large-signal measurements: the physics layer every stage above builds on.

HeaviMind generates and optimizes candidate circuits; Circuit Studio carries them through to tapeout-ready layout.
HeaviMind, Circuit Studio
Confirm S-parameters, noise figure, and P1dB against spec, and feed your own measurements back to improve the accuracy of the models yourself.
