## Physics AI in chip design
Physics AI helps engineers balance accuracy and speed in chip design.

> Oftentimes, what I see in the field is engineers have to choose between accuracy or fast physics
## Vinci's approach
Vinci combines physics foundation models with GPU-native physics kernels for repeatable results.

> In a product development world, the team that understands the physics, or the behavior of their product early on, they win the race
## Customer data protection
Vinci deploys behind customer firewalls to keep proprietary design information secure.

> The way we have designed our platform, it works right into your workflow
## Physics AI beyond chips
Physics AI could support robot and humanoid system development through simulation.

> Customers are able to open doors for new innovation, things that they haven’t imagined before
## Series B funding
Vinci raised $250 million in Series B funding to expand physics applications across industries.

> Vinci is exploring applications in automotive and aerospace engineering as it expands beyond its semiconductor base
## Future applications
Vinci aims to apply physics AI to electromagnetics and fluid dynamics in new industries.

> The bottom line is physics doesn’t change
## Key takeaway

Vinci's physics AI helps engineers design complex chips faster while maintaining accuracy.
