Who we are
We pioneer photonic compute for the AI era
Modern AI cannot scale while it’s constrained by the energy required to inefficiently move data between memory, accelerators, interconnects and nodes.
Optalysys develops programmable silicon photonic Compute-in-Transit technology that enables operations to be performed directly within the data path, reducing movement overhead and creating new compute capability for data movement-bound infrastructure.
