Agentrys has raised $24.5 million to develop an AI-driven chip design automation platform called Agentic Design Automation (ADA). The funding includes a $19.1 million oversubscribed seed round led by Etna Labs and a $5.4 million pre-seed round led by MediaTek. ADA aims to reduce the reliance on specialized engineers by embedding autonomous agents into existing engineering environments.
These agents work across commercial EDA tools, internal software, and infrastructure. The platform includes a design intelligence layer that learns from customer data, workflow activity, and evaluation signals. Agentrys has showcased its technology through an autonomous multi-agent workflow for a 32-bit CPU, completing the entire design process from specification to sign-off-clean GDS layout without human intervention.
The company reports 90% accuracy on NVIDIA's public CVDP verification benchmark. With the new capital, Agentrys plans to expand its engineering and research capabilities, recruit talent, develop agent-native tools for semiconductor workflows, and engage more customers across verification and physical design. Founding CEO Mark Ren emphasizes the difficulty of building production-grade agents that can reliably automate real engineering work.
