Solving AI's
Energy Crisis.
Placeve's photonic chips deliver up to 1,000x better energy efficiency than the latest generation of GPUs — rewriting the limits of Generative AI.
1,000x Efficiency
Outperforming NVIDIA Rubin by three orders of magnitude in TOPS/Watt.
Fourier at Light Speed
Native optical Fourier transforms bypassing the electron bottleneck.
University-Backed IP
Core IP exclusively licensed from the University of Florida.

The P3DX Engine
Traditional AI chips are limited by heat and resistance. Our P3DX engine uses photonics to perform high-dimensional matrix multiplications with near-zero heat dissipation.
Speed-of-Light Compute
Zero-latency signal propagation across the die.
Hybrid Integration
Seamlessly compatible with existing CMOS manufacturing.
Prototype 3.5 Ready
Moving from 2.5D validation to 3.5D photonic stacking.
P3DX Engine vs. NVIDIA Rubin
One P3DX processor on a single board is equivalent to roughly a thousand Rubin GPUs.
P3DX ≈ 1,000 × NVIDIA Rubin GPU
"Placeve's photonic CNN is a critical technology for the safety of the future of fully autonomous driving."
Trillion-Dollar Opportunities
The AI revolution demands a new computing substrate.
AI Generation
AI video and personalized ad generation in real-time.
Physical AI
1,000x more efficient computer vision for robotics and autonomy.
Science Discovery
Solving partial differential equations for rocket fuel, drugs, and materials.
Over $5.39B saved annually on video inference.
Switching Sora 2-class inference workloads to Placeve System GenX drops the cost per 10-second video from $1.30 to $0.00013 — at 11.3M videos per day.
