Vyges Company Fact Sheet

Last Updated: May 2026

Company Overview

Vyges builds and licenses fab-ready SoC IP, commissions silicon, and operates the first open registry for silicon IP. We replace $2–5M and 6–9 months of outsourced integration with weeks-not-months delivery, anchored on the Vyges Metadata Standard — the machine-readable model that turns silicon IP into composable, governed, AI-agent-consumable artifacts.

Key Facts

  • Founded: 2025
  • Headquarters: San Francisco Bay Area, California
  • Industry: Silicon — fab-ready SoC IP and commissioned silicon
  • Paid product lines: Silicon (SoC IP licensing, commissioned silicon) and VyCatalog Enterprise (private catalogs)
  • Public registry: VyCatalog — 125+ open-source silicon IPs and growing
  • Free developer toolchain: VyContext, VyBox, Vyges CLI (early access)
  • Standard: Vyges Metadata Standard (JSON Schema Draft 2020-12)

Mission

Sell fab-ready SoC IP and silicon, and treat silicon delivery like software — open standards, automated promotion to fab-ready artifacts, and a metadata-first ecosystem. Replace months of outsourced integration with weeks-not-months delivery.

Product Portfolio

Silicon products (paid)

Fab-ready SoC IP licensing and commissioned silicon — complete, integrated, verified SoC designs delivered in weeks instead of the months a typical outsourced-integration program requires. Engagement structure is scoped per program; engagement-based pricing.

VyCatalog (open, free)

The first open registry for silicon IP. 125+ IPs indexed at launch, every entry described by the Vyges Metadata Standard and rendered as a machine-readable, AI-agent-consumable IP Nutrition Label. Software has PyPI, npm, and Crates.io. Until VyCatalog, silicon had nothing equivalent.

VyCatalog Enterprise (paid)

The same registry engine and the same metadata standard, deployed inside the customer's perimeter — on-premise, customer cloud, or Vyges-managed. For organizations with proprietary, embargoed, or licensed IP that cannot sit in a public catalog. One engine, one metadata model, two configurations.

VyContext (free)

AI-IDE extension that operationalizes Vyges' IP-development conventions inside the editor. VS Code and Cursor support; bring-your-own-LLM keys; works with commercial or in-house models.

VyBox (free)

Browser-based development environment for silicon IP — Git, Code-Server IDE, and pre-installed open-source EDA tools (RTL → GDSII), available via GitHub Codespaces. VyBox Enterprise is a separate custom engagement for organizations needing specific commercial vendor tools, LLM choice, authentication, and deployment topology.

Vyges CLI (free, early access)

The package manager for silicon IP — same pattern as npm for npmjs.org and pip for PyPI. Currently in early access; contact us for access.

Technology

  • Vyges Metadata Standard: open, JSON Schema (Draft 2020-12), machine-readable and AI-agent-consumable
  • Open-source EDA pipeline: Verilator, GHDL, Yosys, OpenLane for fab-ready hardening
  • Commercial EDA integration: for Enterprise engagements that require specific vendor tools
  • Push-on-Green Silicon: automated promotion of verification-passing artifacts to fab-ready outputs with no human handoffs on the critical path

Shipped Artifacts

  • Edge Sensor SoC — fab-ready SoC composed from VyCatalog blocks; FPGA-validated pre-silicon (Arty A7); submitted to the Chipfoundry Contest
  • OpenLane macro library — seven hardened GDS macros on Sky130A, including SRAM macros
  • VyCatalog API — live since 2026-03-19
  • VySeal pipeline — IP licensing and delivery infrastructure verified end-to-end 2026-04-02
