§ Products

AI compute, scalable.

From 250–454 GOPS always-on sensing to 33 TOPS heterogeneous compute — same unified Alp SDK, same C/C++ API, same toolchain. Pick the AI power you need today; when you scale, code written against the SDK API carries over, and modules within a footprint swap on the same carrier.

§ Roadmap

What's shipping, what's next.

Public roadmap. No vapor — only modules with a defined silicon stack appear in "In development". The horizon column is open invitations rather than dated commitments.

On the horizon

Exploring

What's next on the standard

  • Custom SoM, your silicon

    Bring your own SoC — we route it onto the E1M / E1M-X pinout and you ride the SDK + ecosystem.

  • Additional reference SoMs

    Conformance tests, plus reference SoMs from new silicon partners as the standard expands.

  • Carrier-board reference designs

    Open-source carrier templates so customers can spin their own production boards in weeks, not months.
