A browser-based tool that turns SPICE netlists into placed, routed analog layouts using open process design kits.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-18 issue.
For
Analog IC designers using open PDKs
Worth noticing
The homepage describes migrating a design between IHP SG13G2 and SkyWater 130 by rebuilding devices for the selected PDK.

Field notes

The homepage describes devices as generated from the selected PDK, with geometry kept tied to the process rather than drawn as arbitrary shapes. Its examples include importing GDS and LEF cells, editing within hierarchical modules, and moving a design between IHP SG13G2 and SkyWater 130. The AI agent is presented separately as still in testing; the site says its edits can be undone one step at a time.
