A Grenoble-based start-up created in 2019 and specialising in design assistance and semiconductor verification software, Aniah has developed a technology solution that accelerates verification processes by a factor of a thousand and corrects design errors at the earliest stages of development.
Its software, available since June 2022, and is being used by a number of leading semiconductor companies including STMicroelectronics.
This €6m financing round will allow Aniah to accelerate its growth and international expansion in key markets, especially in Asia, the United States and Israel. It will also enable the finalisation of the development of new modules for chip reliability analysis, design project monitoring or APIs for AI-based automated design. Aniah's addressable market is estimated at €800m.
Commenting Remi Moriceau, co-founder and CEO of Aniah, said, “Our technology was born from a real market need, to have a unique tool, able to analyse complex circuits electrically. We have developed a simple and ergonomic application that can be integrated into our customers' flows. This round of financing from partners who are experts in the sector will enable us to make this solution accessible to the entire market, to structure our development in high-potential areas and to surround ourselves with new talents.”
"Aniah is shaking up the market by completely renewing the semiconductor electrical design and verification software offer. Its revolutionary approach, 1000 times faster than competing solutions, brings considerable productivity gains to its customers and a level of quality never reached before," commented Damien Bretegnier, Investment Director at Supernova Invest.
