NextSilicon

NextSilicon is a deep-tech compute company building intelligent, software-defined acceleration hardware for high-performance computing, AI, and vector-database workloads. Its flagship Maverick-2 is a dataflow accelerator built on the Intelligent Compute Architecture (ICA) that reconfigures itself at runtime, and its Arbel product is a server-class RISC-V CPU core on TSMC process. A developer toolchain supports C/C++, FORTRAN, OpenMP, and Kokkos, with planned CUDA and HIP/ROCm paths, letting teams run existing code faster without rewrites or vendor lock-in. NextSilicon publishes no public web API, SDK registry package, or open developer portal; its documentation site is gated, so this profile captures company identity, its GitHub organization (largely upstream compiler/Kokkos forks), and domain-security posture.

NextSilicon is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Compute, High Performance Computing, Semiconductors, and Hardware.

NextSilicon’s developer surface includes engineering blog and 5 more developer resources.
