Ricursive Intelligence

Ricursive Intelligence is a frontier AI laboratory building self-improving systems to reinvent chip design, closing the loop between artificial intelligence and the hardware that powers it. Founded by researchers behind work such as AlphaChip (Nature 2021), RL-CCD (DAC Best Paper 2023), Insta (DAC Best Paper 2025), and C3PO (ASP-DAC Best Paper 2026), and contributors to major AI models and accelerators (Gemini, Claude, Grok, TPUs), the company raised $335M from Sequoia, Lightspeed, DST Global, and NVentures. As of this profile the company operates as a research lab with a public marketing site and careers page but no publicly documented developer API, SDKs, or developer portal.

Ricursive Intelligence is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Machine-Learning, Chip Design, and Semiconductors.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/ricursive-intelligence: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
