Averant, Inc. is a startup electronic design automation (EDA) company specializing in verification technology solutions for complex integrated circuits (ICs) and digital intellectual property (IP). Founded in 1997 and based in Hayward, California, Averant addresses the growing complexity in design that often leads to costly errors if identified post-production. The company's flagship products include Solidify, a static functional verification engine offering vectorless verification and code coverage; SolidAC, which detects common design issues automatically; SolidPC, an AMBA protocol verifier; and SolidTC, which verifies timing constraints. These innovations help ensure that design blocks are functionally correct before production, mitigating potential costly mistakes.
