The first cloud-native electronic design automation platform built specifically for post-quantum cryptographic hardware development.
Traditional EDA tools were not designed for cryptographic hardware. OpenForge provides purpose-built verification, analysis, and compliance tools for PQC implementations.
Formal proof that your design executes in constant time regardless of input data. Catches timing leaks that simulation misses.
Power analysis and electromagnetic emanation modeling. Test DPA, CPA, and template attacks before tapeout.
Track entropy propagation through your design. Verify that random number generators meet SP 800-90B requirements.
Automated verification against FIPS 140-3, FIPS 203/204/205, and Common Criteria requirements.
Formal verification of Number Theoretic Transform implementations and polynomial arithmetic against reference specifications.
Run verification jobs on cloud infrastructure. Parallel execution, auto-scaling, and pay-per-use compute for large designs.

OpenForge integrates and extends the best open-source EDA and verification tools, adding cryptographic-specific analysis layers on top.
High-performance RTL simulation engine. Compiled C++ output for fastest cycle-accurate verification.
Python-based verification framework. Write testbenches in Python with coroutine-based stimulus generation.
Formal verification frontend. Bounded model checking, induction proofs, and equivalence checking.
Open-source synthesis framework. RTL optimization, technology mapping, and netlist generation.
Microsoft's SMT solver for formal property checking. Powers constant-time and equivalence proofs.
SystemVerilog parser and linter. Style checking, formatting, and code quality analysis.
Static timing analysis engine. Setup/hold checks, clock domain crossing, and timing closure.
Power analysis and glitch injection framework. DPA, CPA, and fault attack simulation.
OpenForge is designed for automation. Every operation is available through the CLI, making it easy to integrate into CI/CD pipelines.
