NVIDIA Partners With Cadence, Siemens, Synopsys to Build Chip Design AI Agents

· Updated

NVIDIA announced at GTC 2026 that four industrial software leaders are building autonomous AI agents on its platform for chip and system design. Cadence's ChipStack AI SuperAgent handles semiconductor design and verification including testbench coding and debugging. Dassault Systemes is building role-based agents called Virtual Companions on its 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Siemens' Fuse EDA AI Agent orchestrates the semiconductor and PCB workflow from design to manufacturing sign-off, and Synopsys is building AgentEngineer, a multi-agent framework for semiconductor and systems design.

This marks an agentic shift in industrial engineering -- long-running AI agents can now streamline and orchestrate complex design, engineering, and manufacturing workflows. Honda runs aerodynamic simulations 34x faster on the Grace Blackwell platform, and MediaTek accelerates chip design 6x with NVIDIA H100 GPUs.

Evaluate how your chip design or engineering toolchain maps to these agentic platforms -- each vendor now offers a dedicated agent solution spanning the semiconductor lifecycle.
