Partner program

Build the open stack with us

We are opening OpenForge to a small group of partners ahead of general release. Partners get the desktop build, direct engineering contact and a say in what we build next.

Who it's for

Three ways to work with us

Foundries and PDK owners

  • Bring your PDK in through a tech file, under your NDA terms
  • Run DRC, LVS and extraction against your decks and compare
  • Calibrate process and device models to your test structures
  • Offer customers an open flow on your process

IP integrators and SoC teams

  • Pull OFIP blocks with register skeletons and testbenches
  • Contribute blocks and verification IP to the catalog
  • Plan multi-project shuttle test chips with us
  • Shape the build order for the blocks you need

ASIC, FPGA and board engineers

  • Take a design from RTL to GDS or bitstream without licence servers
  • Carry the same project into package, PCB and thermal
  • Script and automate every step for CI
  • Tell us where the flow breaks so we fix it first

How it works

From request to first design

  1. Send a requestTell us your role, your process or board technology and what you want to build.
  2. Scoping callAn engineer from Dyber, Inc. reviews your needs with you and agrees a first target.
  3. Access and onboardingYou get the desktop build, the engine setup for your machine and a walkthrough on an example.
  4. First design throughWe bring one real design of yours through the flow together and fix what gets in the way.

Questions

Before you ask

Is OpenForge open source?

OpenForge is built on open engines and the OFIP catalog is published openly. The licence for OpenForge itself is being finalised; partners get builds ahead of the public release.

Can I use my foundry's NDA PDK?

Yes. You describe the process in a tech file that stays on your machines. OpenForge does not ship, upload or redistribute commercial PDK files.

Are the IP blocks ready for production?

Each block states its maturity tier on its datasheet page. Today the most mature blocks have passed simulation or met timing on a routed FPGA netlist. None is presented as qualified for production, and we will not say otherwise until silicon data exists.

Where does my design data go?

It stays on your machine. Engines run locally, and the optional AI assistant uses a local model, so designs are not sent to a cloud service.

Which operating systems are supported?

The desktop app runs on Windows and Linux. On Windows, engines that need Linux run inside WSL and OpenForge drives them from the desktop.
