About Dhenara
Dhenara is a GenAI startup focusing Silicon verification by building practical AI tooling for ASIC/SoC teams. Our products include dVI™ — a verification intelligence platform, dhenara‑ai — our open‑source LLM toolkit, and dCI — a provider‑agnostic chatbot used internally and by select customers. We focus on simplicity, performance, and interoperability so verification engineers can deliver with confidence.
Our Mission
We help verification teams reduce debug time, improve triage accuracy, and accelerate tapeout schedules by bringing modern AI to pre‑silicon workflows. With 35+ years of combined verification and systems experience, we design for real‑world constraints: scale, reliability, and seamless integration with existing flows (Jira, CI, EDA, logs, and artifacts). Open where it benefits the community; enterprise‑ready where required.
Our Core Values
The fundamental beliefs that shape our company culture
Open Source at the Core
We believe in the power of community-driven development and transparency. Our core packages are genuinely open source, designed from the ground up as community resources.
Simplicity Without Compromise
We strive to create tools that are intuitive and easy to use without sacrificing functionality or performance. Complexity should be optional, not the default.
Provider‑agnostic AI
We believe in giving developers the freedom to choose their AI providers without being locked into proprietary ecosystems. Our tools work seamlessly across various AI providers.
Engineer Experience
We prioritize pragmatic UX for verification engineers—fast defaults, robust fallbacks, and thoughtful APIs that fit existing flows.
Verification‑first
We design for the realities of pre‑silicon verification: huge logs, flaky tests, long regressions, and strict sign‑off criteria.
Sustainable Innovation
We balance our commitment to open source with sustainable business models that fund ongoing development and support.
The Future of Silicon Development isAI driven
Whether you're a silicon engineer, manager, or enterprise, we have the tools to accelerate your AI journey.
